8. PROCEDURE FOR MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE
A. CAUTIONS (1) Be sure to check a microwave emission prior to servicing the oven if the oven is operative prior to servicing. (2) The service personnel should inform the manufacturer, importer, or assembler of any certified oven unit found to have a microwave emission level in excess of 5mW/cm.sq. and should repair any unit found to have excessive emission levels at no cost to the owner and should ascertain the cause of the excessive leakage. The service personnel should instruct the owner not to use the unit until the oven has been brought into compliance. (3) If the oven operates with the door open, the service personnel should; - Tell the user not to operate the oven - Contact the manufacturer and CDRH (Center for Devices and Radiological Health) immediately. NOTE: Address on CDRH Office of Compliance (HFZ-312) Center for Devices and Radiological Health 1390 Piccard Drive Rockville, Maryland 20850 (4) The service personnel should check all surface and vent openings for microwave emission testing. (5) Check for microwave energy leakage after every servicing. The power density of the microwave radiation leakage emitted by the microwave oven should not exceed 1mW/cm.sq. And always start measuring of an unknown field to assure safety for operating personnel from radiation leakage. NOTE: The standard is 5mW/cm.sq. while in the customer's home. 1mW/cm.sq. stated here is manufacturer's own voluntary standard for units in customer's home. EQUIPMENT · Electromagnetic energy leakage monitor (NARDA 8100B, HOLADAY HI 1501) · 600cc glass beaker · Glass thermometer 1000C B. MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY LEAKAGE (1) Pour 275 ± 15cc of 20 ± 5 °C water in a beaker which is graduated to 600 cc, and place the beaker in the center of the oven. (2) Set the energy leakage monitor to 2450 MHz and use it following the manufacturer's recommended test procedure to assure correct result. (3) When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch (5cm) spacer supplied with the probe. (4) Operate the oven at its maximum output. (5) Measure the microwave radiation using and electromagnetic radiation monitor by holding the probe perpendicular to the surface being measured. (See Figure 6) Move probe along shaded area. Probe scanning speed less than 2.5 cm/sec.

Figure 6

C. MEASUREMENT WITH THE OUTER CASE REMOVED (1) When you replace the magnetron, measure for microwave energy leakage before the outer case is installed and after all necessary components are replaced or adjusted. Special care should be taken in measuring the following parts. - Around the magnetron - The waveguide WARNING: AVOID CONTACTING ANY HIGH VOLTAGE PARTS.

-10-

D. MEASUREMENT WITH A FULLY ASSEMBLED OVEN
(1) After all components, including the outer panels, are fully assembled, measure for microwave energy leakage around the door viewing window, the exhaust opening and air inlet openings. (2) Microwave energy leakage must not exceed the values prescribed below. NOTES: Leakage with the outer panels removed - less than 5mW/cm.sq. Leakage for a fully assembled oven (Before the latch switch (primary) is interrupted) with the door in a slightly opened position - less than 1 mW/cm .sq.

G. POWER OUTPUT MEASUREMENT
(1) Fill the test beaker with 59 °F(15 °C) ~ 75 °F(24 °C) 1 liter tap water. (2) Stir the water in the beaker with thermometer (°F or °C) and measure temperature as T1. (3) Place the beaker on the center of turntable. (4) Set for one (1) minute and three (3) seconds and operate the oven at high power. NOTE: The additional three (3) seconds is to allow the magnetron to begin generating power. (5) When the heating is finished, stir the water again with thermometer and measure the temperature of water as T2. (6) Subtract T1 from T2, this will give you the temperature rise. (7) The microwave power output is within specification, if the temperature rise is as shown below: Temperature Rise Line Voltage Degrees °F Degrees °C 120 V 17.1 ~ 22.5 9.5 ~ 12.5 108 V Min. 12.6 Min. 7.0 (8) Power output will be influenced by line voltage of power supply. Consequently, correct power output must be measured within 120V AC ± 1 Volt while unit is operating.

E. NOTE WHEN MEASURING
(1) Do not exceed meter full scale deflection. (2) The test probe must be removed no faster than 1 inch/sec (2.5cm/sec) along the shaded area, otherwise a false reading may result. (3) The test probe must be held with the grip portion of the handle. A false reading may result if the operator's hand is between the handle and the probe. (4) When testing near a corner of the door, keep the probe perpendicular to the surface making sure the probe horizontally along the oven surface, this may possibly cause probe damage.

F. RECORD KEEPING AND NOTIFICATION AFTER MEASUREMENT
(1) After adjustment and repair of any microwave energy interruption or microwave energy blocking device, record the measured values for future reference. Also enter the information on the service invoice. (2) Should the microwave energy leakage not be more than 1mW/cm.sq. after determining that all parts are in good condition, functioning properly and genuine replacement parts which are listed in this manual have been used. (3) At least once a year, have the electromagnetic energy leakage monitor checked for calibration by its manufacturer.

COMPONENTS
H.V.Diode (rectifer)

TEST PROCEDURE
STEP 1. Test the diode to see if it is shorted. Procedure: 1. Select the scale on the meter. 2. Place the meter leads across the diode as pictured in Figure 14-a. The reading should be "40M," "OL," or a reading of infinity. 3. Reverse the meter leads. The reading should again indicate a reading of infinity. If the diode shows "infinity" in BOTH directions, it is NOT shorted. 4. If the diode is not shorted, proceed to step 2. STEP 2. Test the diode for forward biasing. Procedure: 1. Select the DCV scale on the meter. 2. Using the meter, battery, and jumper wire, connect the items as illustrated in Figure 14-b. This has the positive side of the battery connected to the cathode of the diode. 3. The diode should be forward biased therefore a voltage reading of approximately 4.7 VDC to 6.4 VDC will be read depending on meter, battery strength, etc. (Note: If the meter leads were reversed, a negative voltage of the same amount would be seen.) STEP 3. Test the diode for reverse biasing. Procedure: 1. Using the same scale on the meter, connect the positive side of the battery to the anode of the diode as illustrated in Figure 14-c. 2. The diode should be reverse biased therefore a reading of 0 volt or a value displayed in mV will be seen. (The display will be erratic changing values rapidly in the mV scale.)
