20 MEASUREMENTS AND ADJUSTMENTS

water using the thermometer and record the beaker's temperature (recorded as T1)

2. Place the beaker on the center of ceramic shelf.

3. Set the one to High power and heat it for exactly one minute.

4. Stir the water again and read the temperature of the beaker (recorded as T2). The normal temperature rise (T2-T1) at High power output for each model is as shown in table.

20.1.Installation of Safety switch A, Safety switch B and Short switch

1.When mounting Safety switch A, Safety switch B and short switch to door hook assembly, mount the Safety switch A, Safety switch B and the short switch to the door hook assembly as shown. (in Figure).

NOTE: No specific adjustment during installation of Safety switch A, Safety switch B and short switch to the door hook is necessary.

2.When mounting the door hook assembly to the oven assembly, adjust the door hook assembly by moving it in the direction of arrow in (Figure) so that the oven door will not have any play in it. Check for play in the door by pulling the door assembly. Make sure that the latch keys move smoothly after adjustment it completed. Completely tighten the screws holding the door hook assembly to the oven assembly.

3.Reconnect the short switch, safety switches A & B and check the continuity of t monitor circuit and all latch switches again.

20.2.Measurement of microwave output

The power output of the magnetron can be determined by performing IEC standard test procedures. However, due to the complexity of IEC test procedures, it is recommended to test the magnetron using the simple method outlined below.

Necessary Equipment:

*1 liter beaker

*Glass thermometer (Celsius scale) *Wrist watch or stopwatch

NOTE: Check the line voltage under load. Low voltage will lower the magnetron output. Take the temperature readings and heating time as accurately as possible.

1. Fill the beaker with exactly one liter of tap water. Stir the
