5.1 PFC - Power factor correction
The Caddy Arc 151i/201i are 230 V single-phase power sources equipped with a
PFC circuit making it possible to use the full range of the machine on a 16 A fuse.
The PFC also protects the machines against fluctuating mains voltage and makes it
safer to use with a generator. Caddy Arc 151i/201i can operate with extra long
mains cables, over 100 m, giving you a very larger working radius.
