Peer comment(s):
neutral Tony M : Would usually be a logical assumption, but what meaning would 'PFC full range' have? / Yes, that would make sense, wouldn't it?

Full range could mean that the PFC is 100% effective over the full range of permissible loads placed on the power supply unit (that what's not true with some PSUs which can't cope with highly capacitative or inductive loads taking high currents).
agree C. Mouton : PFC à pleine puissance (ou à puissance nominale)
