Can you provide key recommendations for electrical design of machinery build and validate in America but for use in Thailand?

my electric system is 115VAC_60hz Vs 220VAC_50hz (Thailand)

What kind of Transformer would be good to consider?

NOTE:
The machines to be designed are considered as low-profile
(ML1500 PLC, PanelView, PS @ 24; Motors @ 220V with variable speed controller)

Thanks in advance

delth,

Due to the global nature of business, alot of electrical machinery components are designed to handle 50 Hz operation. The VFDs you are using for motor control should handle the different frequency operation and provide whatever frequency output you are looking for. You will want to look out for any motors running through a standard motor starter or soft starters and make sure they are designed correctly for speed.
