Zusammenfassung:Power factor control in an AC powered machine having multiple input electrical power requirements. AC input power is continuously applied to a low input power load and selectively to a high input power load. The AC power to the high input power load is pulse modulated to have an input power that depends upon the input AC line voltage and upon the input AC line current. The pulse modulated AC power is controlled such that the total AC input power remains less than a design limit. If the high input power load is a heater, the pulse modulated AC power also depends on the heater's temperature.
