I am looking at a UVC light for my Koi pond. The company I prefer sells a 220V/60hz model, seeing how we run 50hz here, will this brand be incompatible?

Thanks.

If it has an electronic ballast, it will likely be fine.

If it's a magnetic ballast then it will probably work, but the ballast will overheat and the life of the lamp will be reduced.

If you ignore the US and other places with 110V split phase supplies there are very few countries that use 220V 60Hz (Philippines is one I know), are you sure it's not a typo?

Why not get one here, Koi accessories are not exactly rare?

Thanks Crossy. This answered my question well. I have purchased a Jabao UVC light here. It broke rather quickly. I am checking out the online koi shops in the UK, as it will be the easiest.

Thanks.
