AC Power Supply PCR-LE2 

seriess

Thank you for purchasing the PCR-LE2 Series AC Power Supply.
The PCR-LE2 Series is a special version of the PCR-LE Series that 
can produce highly pure AC signals through the combination of 
its high-speed linear amplifier and arbitrary waveform synthesizer. 
It features switchable single-phase, single-phase three-wire, and 
three-phase outputs.

Checking the Package Contents

When you receive the product, check that all accessories are in-
cluded and that the accessories have not been damaged during 
transportation. If any of the accessories are damaged or missing, 
contact your Kikusui agent or distributor. We recommend that you 
save all packing materials, in case the product needs to be trans-
ported at a later date.

Features

The PCR-LE2 Series is equipped with the following features.
•  Switchable between single-phase output, single-phase three-

wire output, and three-phase output
Three types of output are available on a single unit.

•  Various power supply simulations

Power line abnormalities such as outages and voltage dips can 
be simulated. This is a basic feature for power-supply-environ-
ment testing.

•  Various measurements

The rms voltage and current, the peak voltage and current, the 
active power, apparent power, and power factor of the output 
can be measured. Harmonic analysis (up to the 40th harmonic) 
can be performed on the output current.

•  DC output

The PCR-LE2 Series can generate DC output (single-phase out-
put or single-phase three-wire output only) and AC + DC output 
(single-phase output only). This makes it possible to use the 
PCR-LE2 Series in a wide variety of fields, including chemistry 
and physics.

•  Sequences

The output voltage, frequency, and waveform can be changed 
over time. Power-supply-environment testing can be automated.
In addition to the AC output sequences, DC output (single-phase 
output or single-phase three-wire output only) and AC + DC out-
put (single-phase output only) sequences are also available. A 
variety of standard tests can also be performed.

•  Sensing and regulation adjustment

Even if the load device is at a remote location, the PCR-LE2 Se-
ries can stabilize the voltage across the load by correcting for 
voltage drops.
There are two types of sensing: hard sensing (single-phase 
output only) and soft sensing. The different types of sensing are 
used depending on the load conditions and how you will use the 
PCR-LE2 Series.

•  Output current control

The output limit function can be used to limit the output current 
(rms) to a fixed value to perform continuous operation. Continuity 
tests on electrical equipment (such as switchboards, breakers, 
and wiring devices) can be performed under stable conditions.

•  Power management function (power saving function)

A sleep function, which turns the power units off to reduce power 
consumption when output is not generated for the specified 
length of time, and a power-saving function, which operates the 
power units at the bare minimum settings as required by the sup-
ply load, are available.

•  Memory function

Up to 99 entries of output frequency, voltage (AC or DC), and 
waveform bank settings can be saved to the internal memory.
The contents of internal memory, panel settings, power line ab-
normality simulations, sequence data, and waveform bank data 
can be saved to a USB memory device.

•  External communications

The PCR-LE2 Series can be controlled remotely through its 
RS232C interface. If an optional interface board is used, the 
PCR-LE2 Series can be controlled remotely through USB, GPIB, 
and LAN interfaces.

•  External analog signal control (optional)

The EX05-PCR-LE/EX06-PCR-LE option enables you to control 
the PCR-LE2 Series output using external analog signals.
