. When the output voltage is between 1 V and 100 V or 2 V and 200 V and the load power factor is between 0.8 and 1. When the output voltage is 

between 100 V and 150 V or 200 V and 300 V, the output current is reduced by the output voltage. When the load power factor is between 0 and 0.8, the 
output current is reduced by the load power factor. When the output frequency is between 1 Hz and 40 Hz, the output current is reduced by the output 
frequency.  

*2

. For capacitor-input rectifier loads, (at near the peak of the voltage waveform, excluding three-phase three-wire output). The peak current 

that can be output decreases in accordance with the reduction in the absolute value of the instantaneous output voltage. 

*3

. When the output voltage is 

100 V or 200 V and the output frequency is between 40 Hz and 999.9 Hz (reverse current is -180 deg out of phase with the output voltage). 

*4

. 1 Hz to 500 

Hz when a 3P05-PCR-LE (500HZ LMT) is installed in the PCR-LE and on the PCR-LE2 500HZ LMT model (during three-phase output). 

*5

. When the output 

voltage is between 100 V and 212 V or 200 V and 424 V, the output current is reduced by the output voltage. 

*6

. When the output voltage is between 80 

V and 150 V or 160 V and 300 V and the load power factor is 1. 

*7

. When the output voltage is 100 V or 200 V, the load power factor is 1, and the output 

current changes from 0 A to the rated value and from the rated value to 0 A. 

*8

. Three-phase three-wire or Three-phase four-wire input: M5 

*9

. Single-phase 

three-wire or Three-phase input: M5

MANUAL

Alarms/Trouble

When a protection function is activated, an alarm (ALM-xx) or a 
trouble indication (TRBL-xx) is generated, and the output is turned 
off.
Alarm: Press ALM CLR(SHIFT+CLR) to clear the alarm, and then fix 
the problem that caused the alarm.
Trouble: To clear the trouble indication, turn the POWER switch off, 
wait at least 5 seconds, and turn it back on. If the same trouble 
persists, contact your Kikusui agent or distributor to request repairs.
