A couple of other comments re. this situation.
1. A receptacle like the one I linked in post #7 is totally "legal" in the USA for 240V applications, but will require a variety of adapters/pigtails to interface with the many different types of AC mains connectors used worldwide. Read and weep (LOL):

2. I'm at a loss about how to handle a situation where a client shows up with multiple "foreign" (to the USA) pieces of equipment that all require 240 VAC at the same time. I guess you could have multiple NEMA 6-20R receptacles (as linked in post #7 above) installed and multiple "pigtails" and adapters available. It would appear that at least a few NEMA 6-20R receptacles receptacles in both the control room and the various tracking areas would be required to handle the various possibilities.
