CONVECTION COOKING CONDITION
PREHEATING CONDITION
Program desired convection temperature by touching
the CONVECTION pad and the temp. pad.
When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:
1. The coil of shut-off relays (RY2, RY3 and RY5) are
energized, the oven lamp, cooling fan motor,
turntable motor and convection motor are turned
2. y:k coil of relay (RY6) is energized by the CPU
unit, The damper is moved to the closed position,
opening the damper switch contacts.
The opening of the damper switch contacts sends
a signal to the LSI on the CPU unit de-energizing
the relay (RY6) and opening the circuit to the
damper motor.
3. The coil of heater relay (RY4) is energized by the
CPU unit and the main supply voltage is added to
the convection heater.
4. When the oven temperature reaches the selected
preheat temperature, the following operations oc-
cur:
4-l. The heater relay (RY4) is de-energized by
the CPU unit temperature circuit and
thermistor, opening the circuit to the convection heater.
4-2. The oven will continue to function for 15
minutes, turning the convection heater on
and off, as needed to maintain the selected
preheat temperature.
The oven will shut-down completely after
15 minutes.
CONVECTION COOKING CONDITION
When the preheat temperature is reached, a beep signal
will sound indicating that the holding temperature has
been reached in the oven cavity. Open the door and
place the food to be cooked in the oven.
Program desired cooking time and convection temperature by touching the NUMBER pad, CONVECTION
pad and Temperature pad.
When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:

down to zero.
2.
The oven lamp, turntable motor, cooling fan motor
and convection motor are energized.
Heater relay (RY4) is energized (if the cavity tem-
3.
perature is lower than the selected temperature)
and the main supply voltage is applied to the convection heater to return to the selected cooking
temperature.
4.
Upon completion of the cooking time, the audible
signal will sound, and oven lamp, turntable motor,
cooling fan motor and convection motor are
de-energized. At the end of the convection cycle,
if the cavity air temperature is above 118 OC., the
circuit to RY5 will be maintained (by the thermistor
circuit) to continue operation of the cooling fan
motor until the temperature drops below 118 OC.,
at which time the relay will be de-energized, turning off the fan motor. Relay RY3 will however,
open as soon as the convection cycle has ended,
turning off the convection fan motor.This will now
cool and allow the damper door to open.
5. At the end of the convection cook cycle, shut-off
relay (RY6) is energized turning on- the damper
motor. The damper is returned to the open position,
closing the damper switch contacts which send a
signal to the control unit, de-energizing shut-off
relay (RY6).
AUTOMATIC MIX COOKING CONDITION
Program desired cooking time and temperature by
touching the number pads and the LOW MIX/BAKE
or HIGH MIX/ROAST pad
When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:
1.
The numbers of the digital readout start the count
down to zero.
2.
The shut-off relay (RY2, RY3 and RY5) are energized, turning on the oven lamp, turntable motor,
and cooling fan motor.
3.
The shut-off relay (RY6) is energized.
The damper door is closed from the open position.
4.
The heater relay (RY4) is energized, adding the
mains supply voltage to the convection heater.
5.
Now, the oven is in the convection cooking condition.
6.
When the oven temperature reaches the selected
temperature, the following operations occur:
6-l. The power supply voltages is added to the
convection heater and power transformer alternately.
6-2. The convection heater operates through the
heater relay (RY4) contacts and the power
transformer operates through the cook relay
(RYI ) contacts.
6-3. These are operated by the CPU unit to sup-
ply alternately within a 32 second time base,
convection heat and microwave energy.
The relationship between the
wave power operations are as

Note: During alternate Microwave/Convection opera-
tion, the convection heater is energized only if
the cavity temperature drops below the set temperature.
SENSOR COOKING CONDITION
Using the SENSOR COOK function, the foods are
cooked without figuring time, power level or quantity.
When the oven senses enough steam from the food, it
relays the information to its microprocessor which will
calculate the remaining cooking time and power level
needed for best results.
When the food is cooked, water vapor is developed.
The sensor “senses” the vapor and its resistance increases gradually. When the resistance reaches the
value set according to the menu, supplementary cook-
ing is started.
The time of supplementary cooking is’.determined by
experiment with each food category and inputted into
the LSI.
An example of how sensor works:
1. Broccoli at room temperature.
Vapor is emitted very slowly.
2. Heat broccoli. Moisture and humidity is emitted
rapidly. You can smell the aroma as it cooks.
3. Sensor detects moisture and humidity and calcu-
lates cooking time and variable power.
Cooking Sequence.
1. Touch SENSOR COOK pad.
NOTE:The oven should not be operated on SEN-
SOR COOK immediately after plugging in
the unit. Wait five minutes before cooking
on SENSOR COOK.
2.
Select desired Sensor setting.
3. Touch START pad.
The coil of shut-off relays(RY2,RY5) are energized,
the oven lamp and cooling fan motor are turned
on, but the power transformer is not turned on,
4.
After about 16 seconds, the cook relay (RYI) is
energized. The power transformer is turned on,
microwave energy is produced and first stage is
started.
The 16 seconds is the cooling time required to remove any vapor from the oven cavity and sensor.
NOTE: During this first stage, do not open the door
or touch STOP/CLEAR pad.
5.
When the sensor detects the vapor emitted from the
food, the display switches over to the remaining
cooking time and the timer counts down to zero.
At this time, the door may be opened to stir food,
turn it or season, etc.
When the timer reaches zero, an audible signal
6.
sounds. The shut-off relay and cook relay are
de-energized and the power transformer, oven
lamp, etc. are turned off,
Opening the door or touching the STOP/CLEAR
7.
pad, the time of day will reappear on the display
and the oven will revert to an OFF condition.
COMPU COOK
COMPU COOK will automatically compute the oven
temperature, microwave power and cooking time for
baking, roasting and broiling.
Set the desired program by touching the COMPU
COOK pad, and number pad.
Enter the weight by touching the Number pads
When the START pad is touched, the following operations occur:
1.
The COOK indicator will light and the Convection
Fan Symbol will rotate.
2.
The cooking time will appear on the display and
start counting down to zero.
The cooking time is adjusted automatically according to the weight of the food.
The shut-off relays (RY2, RY3, RY4 and RY5) are
3.
energized, turning on the oven lamp, turntable
motor, cooling fan motor and convection motor.
The power supply voltage is added to the con-
vection heater.
4.
Now, the oven is in the convection cooking mode.
5.
When the oven temperature has reached the programmed convection temperature, the oven goes
into the programmed cooking mode.
6.
At the end of the COMPU COOK cycle, the damper
is returned to the open position and the oven will
go to the off condition.
The cooling fan will remain on until the oven has
cooled.
EASY DEFROST COOKING
The EASY DEFROST key is a special function key to
defrost meats and poultry faster and better.
EASY DEFROST key has 4 defrost stages.
EASY DEFROST automatically defrosts roast beef, etc.
When EASY DEFROST is selected and the food weight
is entered by using the number pads, the oven will
cook according to the special cooking sequence.

The thermistor is a negative temperature coefficient
type. The temperature in the oven cavity is detected
through the resistance of the thermistor, and then the
CPU unit causes the heater relay to operate, thus the
current to the convection heater is turned ON/OFF.
OVEN THERMAL CUT-OUT
The oven thermal cut-out located on the bottom side
of the thermal protection plate is designed to prevent
damage to the convection heater unit if an overheated
condition develops in the tube due to cooling fan failure, obstructed air ducts, dirty or blocked air intake, etc.
Under normal operation, the oven thermal cut-out remains closed. However, when abnormally high temperatures are reached within the heater unit, the oven
thermal cut-out will open, causing the oven to shut
down.
When the oven has cooled temperature, the oven
thermal cut-out closes.
MONITOR SWITCH
The monitor switch is mounted on the upper latch
hook. It is activated (the contacts opened) by the upper latch head when the door is closed. The switch is
intended to render the oven inoperative by means of
blowning the fuse when the contacts of the common
and normal open contacts of upper latch switch fail to
open when the door is opened.

CONVECTION HEATER Microwave Cooking:
The convection heater is located at the left side of the
oven cavity.
It is intended to heat air driven by the
convection fan. The heated air is kept in the oven and
force-circulated and reheated by the convection heater.
Damper is in the open position, because a portion of
cooling air is channeled through the cavity to remove
steam and vapors given off from the heating foods.
It is then exhausted at the top of the oven cavity into
a condensation compartment.
CONVECTION COOKING SYSTEM
This oven is designed with a hot air heating system
where food is not directly heated by the convection
heater, but is heated by forced circulation of the hot
Convection Cooking:
Damper is in the closed position, so that no hot air will
be allowed to leak out the oven cavity.
air produced by the convection heater.
The air heated by the convection heater is circulated
through the convection passage provided on the outer
casing of the oven cavity by means of the convection
fan which is driven by the convection motor. It then
enters the inside of the oven through the vent holes
provided on the left side of the oven. Next,the hot air
heats the food on the turntable and leaves the oven
cavity through the vent in the oven cavity left side wall.
Without leaving the oven, this hot air is reheated by the
convection heater, passes through the convection
passage and enters the inside of the oven cavity again,
in a continuing cycle.
In this way, the hot air circulates inside the oven cavity
to raise its temperature and, at the same time, comes
into contact with the food being cooked.
When the temperature inside the oven cavity reaches
the selected temperature,
the convection heater is
de-energized. When the temperature inside the oven
cavity drops below the selected temperature, the convection heater is energized again. In this way, the inside of the oven cavity is maintained at approximately
the selected temperature.
When the convection time reaches 0, the convection
heater is deenergzed and the convection fan stops op-
erating and the oven shutts off.
Upon completion of the cooking time, the audible sig-
nal will sound, and oven lamp, turntable motor, cooling
fan motor and convection motor are de-energized. At
the end of the convection cycle, if the cavity air tem-
perature is above 118 OC., the circuit to RY5 will be
maintained (by the thermistor circuit) to continue operation of the cooling fan motor until the temperature
drops below 118 OC., at which time the relay will be
de-energized, turning off the fan motor. Relay RY3 will
however, open as soon as the convection cycle has
ended, turning off the convection fan motor.This will
now cool and allow the damper door to open.
DAMPER OPEN-CLOSE MECHANISM
Usually, the damper is in the open position except
during convection cooking.
Damper position is set automatically by damper motor,
damper switch, motor cam and damper shaft.
These components are operated by a signal that judges

MAGNETRON ASSEMBLY TEST
DISCHARGE THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR BEFORE TOUCHING ANY OVEN COMPONENTS OR WIRING.
To test for an open filament, isolate the magnetron from the high voltage circuit. A continuity
check across the magnetron filament leads should indicate less than 1 ohm.
To test for a shorted magnetron, connect the ohmmeter leads between the magnetron filament
leads and chassis ground. This test should indicate an infinite resistance. If there is little or no
’ resistance, the magnetron is grounded and must be replaced.
Power output of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test.
This test should only be used if above rests do not indicate a faulty magnetron and there is no
defect in the following components or wiring: high voltage rectifier, rectifier, high voltage
capacitor, and power transformer.
MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER
Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of substitution, i.e. it can
be measured by using water load how much it can be absorbed by the water load. To measure
the microwave output power in the microwave oven, the relation of calorie and watt is used.
When P(W) heating works for t(second), approximately P x t/4.2 calorie is generated. On the
other hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises AT ( “C) during this microwave
heating period, the calorie of the water is V x AT.
The formular is as follows;
Pxt/4.2=Vx AT
P(W)=4.2xVx AT/t
Our condition for the water load is as follows:
Water load . . .
2000 ml, Heating time . ..I 20 seconds
P=7Ox AT
Measuring method;
1. Put the water load of two (2) litres on the center of the oven shelf. The water load should
be arranged in two (2) Pyrex beakers, the size of which is one (1) litre, and be placed at right
and left, side by side, on the oven shelf.
2. Measure the temperature of water before heating and also after heating during 120 seconds
by microwave, and calculate the temperature rise. The temperature rise should be the average
of temperature differences measured in each beaker.
3. The output power should be calculated as follows.
In case the measuring result is not satis-
factory, execute the measurement several times and judge the result from the synthetic point
of view. Microwave output power should be within + 15% of the nominal one.
Calculation of output power;
Microwave output power
. ..P(W)=7Ox AT(%)
AT = ( ATL + ATR) / 2 : average temperature rise
ATL = (TL2 - TLI),
ATR = (TR2 - TRI)
TL2 : water temperature after heating in left beaker
TLI : water temperature before heating in left beaker
TR2 : water temperature after heating in right beaker
TRI : water temperature before heating in right beaker
Measuring condition;
As the microwave output is affected by several conditions, the measurement should be made
carefully with following attentions.
1. Initial temperature of salt water should be 10 + 1 “C. Well and quickly stir the water and the
temperature measurement should be done immediately after heating.
2. The graduation of thermometer should be scaled by 0.1 “C at minimum and an accurate mer-
cury thermometer is recommended.

3. Water container should be one (1) litre beaker made of Pyrex glass and its diameter approximately 12 cm.
4. Room temperature should be around 20 “C.
5. Power supply voltage should be specification voltage.
POWER TRANSFORMER TEST
DISCHARGE THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR BEFORE TOUCHING ANY OVEN COMPONENTS OR WIRING.
Disconnect the primary input terminals and measure the resistance of the transformer with an
ohmmeter. Check for continuity of the coils with an ohmmeter. On the R x 1 scale, the resistance
of the primary coil should be approx. 1.6 ohm and the resistance of the high voltage coil should
be approximately 74 ohms; the resistance of the filament coil should be less than 1 ohm.

DISCHARGE THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR BEFORE TOUCHING ANY OVEN COMPONENTS OR WIRING.
HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER TEST
Isolate the high voltage rectifier from the circuit. Using the highest ohm scale of the meter read
the resistance across the terminals and observe, reverse the leads to the high voltage rectifier
terminals and observe meter reading.
If a short is indicated in both directions, or if an infinite
resistance is read in both directions, the high voltage rectifier is probably defective and should
be replaced.
RECTIFIER TEST
Isolate the rectifier from the circuit. Using the highest ohm scale of the meter, read the resistance
across the terminals, reverse the leads to the rectifier terminals and observe meter reading.
If an
infinite resistance is read in both directions, the rectifier is good.
If a short is indicated in either direction, the one is probably defective and should be replaced.
HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR TEST
DISCHARGE THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR BEFORE TOUCHING ANY OVEN COMPO-
NENTS OR WIRING.
If the capacitor is open, no high voltage will be available to the magnetron. Disconnect input
leads and check for short or open, between the terminals using an ohmmeter.
Checking with a high ohm scale, if the high voltage capacitor is normal, the meter will indicate
continuity for a short time and should indicate approximately IOM R once the capacitor is
charged.
If the above is not the case, check the capacitoi’with an ohmmeter to see if it is shorted
between the terminals. If it is shorted, replace the capacitor.

ABSOLUTE HUMIDITY SENSOR CIRCUIT
(1) Structure of Absolute Humidity Sensor
The absolute humidity sensor includes two
thermistors as shown in the illustration. One
thermister is housed in the closed vessel filled with
dry air while another in the open vessel. Each
sensor is provided with the protective cover made
of metal mesh to be protected from the external
airflow.
Internal Structure of Sensor
(2) Operational Principle of Absolute Humidity
Sensor
The figure below shows the basic structure of an
absolute humidity sensor. A bridge circuit is
formed by two thermistors and two resistors (Rl
and R2).
The output of the bridge circuit is to be amplified
by the operational amplifier.
Each thermister is supplied with a current to keep
it heated at about 150 “C (302 “F) and the resultant
heat is dissipated in the air and if the two
thermistors are placed in different humidity conditions they show different degrees of heat
conductivity leading to potentiaJ difference between them causing an output voltage from the
bridge circuit, the intensity of which is increased
as the absolute humidity of the air increases. Since
the output is very minute, it will be amplified by the
operational amplifier.

Sensor Circuit
This detector circuit is used to detect the output
voltage of the absolute humidity circuit to allow the
LSI to control sensor cooking of the unit.
When the unit is set in the sensor cooking mode,
16 seconds later the detector circuit starts to func-
tion and the LSI observes the initial voltage
availabel at its AN2 terminal. With this voltage
given, the switches SW1 to SW5 in the LSI are
turned on in such a way as to change the resistance
values in parallel with R50.
-1. Changing the resistance values results in that
there is the same potential at both F-3 terminal of
the absolute humidity sensor and AN3 terminal of
the LSI. The voltage of AN2 terminal will indicate
about -2.5V. This initial balancing is set up about
16 seconds after the unit is put in the Sensor
Cooking mode.
As sensor cooking proceeds, the food is heated to
generate moisture by which the resistance balance
of the bridge circuit to deviate increasing the volt-
age available at AN2 terminal of the LSl. Then the
LSI observes that voltage at AN2 terminal and
compares it with its initial value, and when the
comparison rate reaches the preset value (fixed for
each menu to be cooked), the LSI causes the unit
to stop sensor cooking; thereafter, the unit goes
into the next necessary operation automatically.
When the LSI starts to detect the initial voltage at
AN2 terminal 16 seconds after the unit has been
put in the Sensor Cooking mode, if it is im possible
to take a balance of the bridge circuit due to disconnection of the absolute humidity sensor, ER-
ROR will reappear on the display and the cooking
is stopped.

1. Precautions for Handing Electronic
Components
This unit uses PMOS LSl in the integral part of the
circuits. When handing these parts, the following
precautions should be strictly followed.
PMOS LSI have extremely high impedance at its
input and output terminals. For this reason, it is
easily influenced by the surrounding high voltage
power source, static electricity charged in clothes,
etc,and sometimes it is not fully protected by the
built-in protection circuit.
,
order to protect PMOS LSI.

When storing and transporting, thoroughly
wrap them in aluminum foil.
Also wrap PW boards containing them in
aluminium foil.
When soldering, ground the technician as

3. Servicing of Touch Control Panel
We describe the procedures to permit servicing the
touch control panel of the microwave oven and the
cautions you must consider when doing so.
To carry the servicing, power supply to the touch
control panel is available either from the power line
of the oven proper itself of from an external power
source.
(I ) Servicing the touch control panel with
power supply from the oven proper:
CAUTION:
THE HIGH VOLTAGE TRANSFORMER OF
THE MICROWAVE OVEN IS STILL ALIVE
TO GIVE YOU DANGER DURING SERVICING.
Therefore, when checking the performance of
the touch control panel,put the outer cabinet
on the oven proper to keep from touching the
high voltage transformer, or unplug the primary
terminal (connector) of the high voltage transformer to turn it off; and the end of such connector shall be insulated with an insulating
tape. After servicing, be sure to replace the
leads to their original locations.
A. On some models, the power supply cord be-
tween the touch control panel and the oven
proper is so short that they can’t be separated
from each other.

AT
16 (R112)
For those models, therefore, check and repair
all the controls (with the sensor-related ones
included) of the touch control panel while
keeping it in contact with the oven proper.
B. On some models, on the other hand, the power
supply cord between the touch control panel
and the oven proper is so long that they may
be separated from each other. For those models, therefore, it is allowed to check and repair
the controls of the touch control panel while
keeping it apart from the oven proper;in this
case you must short both ends of the door
sensing switch (on PWB) of the touch control
panel with a jumper, which brings about an
operational state that is equivalent to that with
the oven door being closed.
As to the sensor-related controls of the touch
control panel, their checking is allowed if the
dummy resistor(s) whose resistance is equal to
that of those controls is used.
(2) Servicing the touch control panel with
power supply from an external power
source:
Disconnect the touch control panel completely
from the oven proper,and short both ends of
the door sensing switch (on PWB) of the touch
control panel,which brings about an operational state that is equivalent with the oven
door being closed. And connect an external
power source to the power input terminal of the
touch control panel, and then it is allowed to
check and repair the controls of the touch
control panel;as in the case of (1 )-B above, it
is here also possible to check the sensor-related
controls of the touch control panel by using the
dummy resistor(s).
4. Servicing Tools
Tools required when servicing the touch control
panel assembly.
1) Soldering iron: 30W
(To prevent leaking current, it is recommended to
use a soldering iron with a grounding terminal.)
2) Oscilloscope: Single beam, frequency range:
DC - IOMHz type or more ad-
vanced model.
3) Others:
5. Other Precautions
Before turning on the power source of the
1)
control unit, remove the aluminum foil applied
for preventing static electricity.
Connect the connectors of the indicator and
2)
key units to the control unit taking care that the
lead wires are not twisted.
After aluminum foil is removed, take extra care
3)
that abnormal voltage due to static electricity
etc. is not applied to the input or output terminals.
Attach connectors, electrolytic capacitors, etc.
4)
to PWB, taking care that all connections are
tight.
Be sure to use specified components where
5)
high precision is required.

UPPER LATCH/LOWER LATCH/STOP SWITCHES
AND MONITOR SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
If the upper latch,lower latch switches stop switch and
monitor switch do not operate properly due to a
mis-adjustment, the following adjustment should be
made.
1. Loosen the one (1) screw holding the upper Jatch
book to the oven cavity front flange and the one (1)
screw holding the lower latch hook to the same
flange.
2. With the door closed, adjust the lower latch book
by moving it back and forth and then adjust the
upper latch hook by moving it back and forth, or
up and down.
by the upper and lower latch hooks should be less
than 0.5 mm. The vertical position of the upper
latch hook should be placed where the upper latch
switch and monitor switch have activated with the
door closed. Vertical adjustment of the lower latch
book is not possible.
3. Secure the screws with washers firmly.
4. Now, make sure of the upper latch switch operation. If the upper latch switch has not, activated with
the door closed, loose the one (1) screw holding
the upper latch book to the oven cavity front flange
and adjust the upper latch hook position.
In and out play of the door allowed
2. The upper latch and lower latch switches interrupt
the circuit before the door can be opened.
3. The monitor switch contacts close when the door
is opened.
4. Re-install the outer case and check for microwave
leakage around the door with an approved micro-
wave survey meter. (Refer to Microwave Measurement Procedure.)
After the adjustment, make sure of the following:
1. The in and out play of the door remains less than
0.5 mm at latched position. First check the upper
latch hook position, pushing and pulling the upper
portion of door toward the oven face. Then check
the lower latch hook position, pushing and pulling
the lower portion of door toward the oven face.
Both results (plays of the door) should be less than
0.5mm.

DOOR REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT
DOOR REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect oven from power supply and remove
outer case.
2. Holding the door, remove three (3) screws securing
the upper door hinge to the oven cavity. The door
assembly is nowfree from the oven cavity.
3. On re-installing new door assembly, secure the door
assembly with the three (3) mounting screws to the
oven cavity.
Make sure the door is parallel with the bottom line
of the oven face plate and the latch heads pass
through the latch holes correctly.
Note: After any service to the door, .-an approved
microwave survey meter should be used to assure
compliance
with proper
microwave
rediation standard.
(Refer to Microwave Measurement Procedure).
Note: If the Latch Heads Need Removal, “TORX T-20”
or “LHXTIX LR-3” Type screwdriver should be
used.

DOOR ADJUSTMENT
When removing and/or loosening hinges such as in the
case of a door replacement, the following adjustment
criteria are taken.
Door is adjusted to meet the following three conditions before tightening the binge
screws.
I. Adjust door latch heads at a position where they
smoothly catch the latch hooks through the latch
holes. Refer to upper latch and lower latch switches
adjustments.
2. Deviation of the door alignment from the horizontal
line of cavity face to be less than 1 mm.
3. Door should be adjusted with its face depressed
toward cavity face.
After hinge screws are tightened under foregoing conditions, recheck 1 and 2.
Note: The door on a microwave oven is designed to
act as an electronic seal preventing the leakage
of microwave energy from the oven cavity during
the cookcycle.
This function does not require
that the door be airtight, moisture condensation
tight or light-tigbt. Therefore, the occasional
appearance of moisture, light or the sensing of
gentle air movement around the oven door is not
abnormal and do not of themselves, indicate a
leakage of microwave energy from the oven
cavity. If such were the case, your oven could
not be equipped with a vent, the very purpose
of which is to exhaust the vapor-laden air from
the oven cavity.

MICROWAVE MEASUREMENT
R -8580
After adjustment of door latch switches, monitor
switch and door are completed individually or collectively, the following leakage test must be performed
with a survey instrument and it must be confirmed that
the result meets the requirements of the performance
standard for microwave oven.
REQUIREMENT
The safety switch must prevent microwave radiation
emission in excess of 5mW/cm2 at any point 5cm or
more from external surface of the oven.
PREPARATION FOR TESTING:
Before beginning the actual test for leakage, proceed
as follows;
1. Make sure that the test instrument is operating
normally as specified in its instruction booklet.
Important:
Survey instruments that comply with the require-
ment for instrumentations as prescribed by the performance standard for microwave ovens must be
used for testing.
Recommended instruments are:
NARDA 8100
NAR DA 8200
HOLADAY HI 1500
SIMPSON 380M
2.
Place the oven tray into the oven cavity.
Place the load of 275 +15ml of water initially at
3.
20 &5 “C in the center of the oven tray. The water
container should be a low form of 600 ml beaker
with inside diameter of approx. 8.5cm and made of
an electrically non-conductive material such as
glass or plastic.
The placing of this standard load in the oven is im-
portant not only to protect the oven, but also to in-
sure that any leakage is measured accurately.
4.
Close the door and turn the oven ON with the timer
set for several minutes. If the water begins to boil
before the survey is completed, replace it with
275ml of the cool water.
Move the probe slowly (not faster that 2.5cm/sec.)
5.
along the gap.
6.
The microwave radiation emission should be measured at any point of 5cm or more from the external
surface of the oven,
