What is the difference between 50 hz and 60 hz?

The primary difference between 50 Hz (Hertz) and 60 Hz (Hertz) is simply that 60 Hz is 20% higher in frequency. For a generator or induction motor pump (in simple terms) it means 1,500/3,000 RPM or 1,800/3,600 RPM (for 60 Hz). ... For example with 50 Hz, generator will be running at 3,000 RPM against 3,600 RPM with 60 Hz. If your vessel is European it may operate on 50 HZ equipment.  Most hot tub companies in the USA would not know where to begin. Aquatic Technologies Inc. Can provide you with replacement equipment and test your existing equipment right on board your vessel while your docked in a dry dock or even if your just docked for the day.
