Can I convert a 220v Jura C60 to 110v so I can use in America?

I would like to know if a Jura C60 can be converted from 220v to 110v

Thank you

Do you mean permanently? Or for a while? - If you change the plug it might work as is.. (possibly might take a long time to reach brewing temperature). Jura has excellent customer support, have you asked this there?

I don't think so. Maybe the heater would work, taking a long time as Jana wrote. But the ainboard is supplied by a transformer, and it will not reach the right voltage…

@w3rkjana : thanks for translating!

petrosathanasiou  not without either replacing the power board or a transformer. Neither one of those is cheap or easy to find. The power board from a Micro 9 may fit (can’t tell until we can see the one from your machine) or a original transformer suitable for the wattage of your Jura. If nothing else I’d get one of these It’ll definitely work

There is 240VAC power in almost every house in America. If you know how to wire it to a special wall outlet, you can plug it in and use it directly without any problem. I am using my Z8 from Europe this way.

Update (03/03/2020)

This is how US 250VAC, 20A setup looks like:

Once you have this setup in US, you can plug any 220/230/240/250VAC small appliances from Europe/Asia into it directly without any transformers. The only thing you need to do is to cut off the original plug and attach a US one to it.

The main difference that matters is the frequency. The higher frequency in US (60Hz) will drive AC motors/pumps a little bit faster since those are made for 50Hz. This means the water pressure will be a little bit higher from the pump and could be beneficial to espresso enthusiasts.

Converting a 220V Jura C60 coffee machine to operate on 110V in America can be a bit challenging, as it requires both voltage and potentially frequency conversion. The machine is designed for European voltage standards, and simply using a plug adapter to fit the American socket won't suffice, as the internal components and the motor of the machine are not designed to handle the lower voltage. To make it work in the United States, you would need a voltage transformer or overseas converter that can step down the 220V to 110V. It's important to select a converter that can handle the wattage of your specific Jura C60 model, as coffee machines typically have high power requirements. However, please be cautious and check whether the coffee machine's internal components and electronics are compatible with the American frequency (60Hz) as European machines often run on 50Hz. Using a quality voltage converter and checking the frequency compatibility is crucial to avoid damaging the machine or compromising its performance. Additionally, keep in mind that converting the voltage may void any manufacturer warranties.

Is this conversation helpful so far?

Again, there is no need to convert since every US family already have 240VAC built in. The only thing in Jura C60 and other Jura models too care about AC frequency is the vibratory water pump: 60 Hz will make it run/vibrate a little bit faster than 50 Hz and create a little bit higher water pressure, which is actually beneficial to espresso making.

I am running a Jure Z8, a Jura Giga 5, and Krups EA9010, all European models, this way for years already.

On top of dropped efficiency, the biggest problem with transformers/converters is fire hazard.
