A MAGNETRON TEST

NEVER TOUCH ANY PART IN THE CIRCUIT WITH YOUR HAND OR AN INSULATED TOOL
WHILE THE OVEN IS IN OPERATION.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECK.


Isolate the magnetron from high voltage circuit by removing all leads connected to filament terminal.
To test for an open circuit filament use an ohmmeter to make a continuity test between the magnetron
filament terminals, the meter should show a reading of less than 1 ohm.
To test for short filament to anode condition, connect ohmmeter between one of the filament terminals
and the case of the magnetron (ground). This test should be indicated an infinite resistance. If a low or
zero resistance reading is obtained then the magnetron should be replaced.
MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER (1 Litre water load)
The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (outer case fitted). Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of
IEC 705, 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/4.187 calorie is generated. On the other
hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises ∆T (°C) during this microwave heating period, the
calorie of the water is V x ∆T.
The formula is as follows;
P x t / 4.187 = V x ∆ T P (W) = 4.187 x V x ∆T / t
Our condition for water load is as follows:
Room temperature..............around 20°C Power supply Voltage.........Rated voltage
Water load.........1000 g Initial temperature...........10±2°C Heating time.........49 sec.
P = 85 x ∆T
Measuring condition:
1. Container
The water container must be a cylindrical borosilicate glass vessel having a maximum material
thickness of 3 mm and an outside diameter of approximately 190 mm.
2. Temperature of the oven and vessel
The oven and the empty vessel are at ambient temperature prior to the start the test.
3. Temperature of the water
The initial temperature of the water is (10±2)°C.
4. Select the initial and final water temperature so that the maximum difference between the final water
temperature and the ambient temperature is 5K.
5. Select stirring devices and measuring instruments in order to minimize addition or removal of heat.
6. The graduation of the thermometer must be scaled by 0.1°C at minimum and accurate thermometer.
7. The water load must be (1000±5) g.
8. “t” is measured while the microwave generator is operating at full power. Magnetron filament heat-
up time is not included.
NOTE: The operation time of the microwave oven is “t + 2” sec. 2 sec. is magnetron filament heat-up time.
Measuring method:
1. Measure the initial temperature of the water before the water is added to the vessel.
(Example: The initial temperature T1 = 11°C)
2. Add the 1 litre water to the vessel.
3. Place the load on the centre of the shelf.
4. Operate the microwave oven at HIGH for the temperature of the water rises by a value ∆ T of
(10 ± 2)˚C.
5. Stir the water to equalize temperature throughout the vessel.

MICROWAVE OUTPUT POWER (2 Litre water load)


The following test procedure should be carried out with the microwave oven in a fully assembled
condition (with outer case fitted).
Microwave output power from the magnetron can be measured by way of substitution, i.e. it can be
measured by using a 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.
On the other hand, if the temperature of the water with V(ml) rises ∆T (˚C) during this microwave heating
period, the calorie of the water is V x ∆T.

The formula is as follows;


P = 8330 x ∆ T
Our condition for water load is as follows:
Room temperature..............around 23±2˚C Power supply Voltage.........Rated voltage
Water load.........2000 ml Initial temperature...........23±1˚C Heating time . 1 min. 51sec.
P = 75 x ∆T
Measuring method:
A) The two water containers must be prepared.
The water container must be one (1) litre beaker made of Pyrex glass and its diameter approximately
12cm.
B) Put the one (1) litre water into each beaker (Each beaker has one litre water). The initial temperature
of the water should be 23±1˚C.
C) Mark T1 on the one beaker and mark T2 on the other one. And stir the water and measure the
temperature of water the thermometer and note them. The graduation of the thermometer must be
scaled by 0.1˚C at minimum and an accurate mercury thermometer is recommended.
D) Place the two (2) beakers as touching each other in the centre of the oven cavity.
E) Set the timer to 1 minutes and 51 seconds, start the oven at 100% power.
F) The time must be measured with stopwatch or wristwatch.
G) After 1 minutes and 51 seconds, stop the oven by opening the door.
H) Put the two (2) beakers out of the oven cavity and measure the temperature of the water by stirring
the water with thermometer and note them.

WARNING: High voltages and large currents are present at the secondary winding and filament
winding transformer. It is very dangerous to work near this part when the oven is
on. NEVER make any voltage measurements of the high-voltage circuits, including
the magnetron filament.

CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.


Disconnect the leads to the primary winding of the power transformer. Disconnect the filament and
secondary winding connections from the rest of the HV circuitry. Using an ohmmeter, set on a low range,
it is possible to check the continuity of all three windings. The following readings should be obtained:

a. Primary winding ................... approx. 1.73 Ω


b. Secondary winding ............... approx. 104.7 Ω
c. Filament winding .................. less than 1Ω

If the reading obtained are not stated above, then the power transformer is probably faulty and should
be replaced.

in both direction then the asymmetric rectifier is good. If an asymmetric rectifier is shorted in either
direction, then the asymmetric rectifier is probably faulty and must be replaced with high voltage rectifier.
