PROCEDURE FOR MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE

• Equipment

*Electromagnetic radiation monitor *Glass thermometer 212° F or 100° F *600cc glass beaker

Procedure for measuring radiation leakage Note before measuring:

(1)Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. Leakage monitor should initially be set to the highest scale.

(2)To prevent false readings the test probe should be held by the grip portion of the handle only and moved along the shaded area shown in Figure no faster than 1 inch/sec (2.5 cm/sec)

(3)Leakage with the outer panel removed less than 5mW/cm2

(4)Leakage for a fully assembled oven with door normally closed less than 2mW/cm2.

(5)Leakage for a fully assembled oven [Before the latch switch (primary) is interrupted] while pulling the door less than 2mW/cm2

1.Pour 275±15cc (9ozs± 1/2oz) of 20± 5° C(68± 9° F) water in a beaker which is graduated to 600cc, and place the beaker in the center of the oven.

2.Set the radiation monitor to 2450MHz and use it following the manufactuer’s recommended test procedure to assure correct results.

3.When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch (5cm) spacer supplied with the probe.3.

4.Tap the start pad or set the timer and with the magnetron oscillating, measure the leakage by holding the probe perpendicular to the surface being measured.

(1) Measurement with the outer panel removed.

Whenever you replace the magnetron, measure for radiation leakage before the outer panel is installed and after all necessary components are replaced or adjusted. Special care should be taken in measuring around the magnetron.

(2) Measurements with a fully assembled oven.

After all components, including the outer panel are fully assembled, measure for radiation leakage around the door periphery, the door viewing window, the exhaust opening and air inlet openings.
