Hz means Hertz which is a measure of frequency. It was once just referred to as cycles per second. In the USA 60 Hz is the normal frequency for AC in a business or residence. It has nothing to do with the amperage per se.

Hertz (Hz) measures the frequency of alternating current. It does not directly relate to amperage, which measures the flow of electric current. Amps depend on the voltage and resistance of a circuit, rather than the frequency of the current.

Do you have to use a transformer if your device have 900 Watts 220 V and 60 Hz with 7.5 amps?

If your device uses 900 Watts at 7.5 Amps, then it requires 120 volts. If you want to use it where the supplied current is 220 volts, then you'll need a transformer - but only if the device can operate on 50 Hz. Most places that use 220 Volts supply it at 50 Hz. If your device says it can operate on 50 Hz you can use a transformer.
