Victron autotransformer

Wondering if the victron autotransformer would step 120v 60hz to 220v 50 hz? Specficly i'm interested if i could use the equipment when sailing in North American to change the shore power to meet my 220 requirements on board. I believe it will change the voltage i'm just trying to determine if it will change the hertz

No, a transformer cannot change the frequency. Whatever frequency goes in will be the same coming out.

Great, thanks! Is there any type of device that can change 120v 60hz to 220 50hz?
