Microwave Leakage Test

CAUTIONS
• Be sure to check a microwave emission prior to
servicing the oven if the oven is operative prior to
servicing.
• If the oven operates with door open, the service
personnel should;
—Tell the user not to operate the oven
• The service personnel should check all surface and
vent openings for microwave emission testing.
• Check for microwave energy leakage after every
servicing. The power density of the microwave
radiation leakage emitted by the microwave oven
should not exceed 4 mW/cm
And always start measuring of an unknown field to
assure safety for operating personnel from radiation
leakage.
NOTE: The standard is 5 mW/cm
customer's home. 4 mW/cm
manufacturer's own voluntary standard for units in
customer's home.
EQUIPMENT
• Microwave Survey Meter
• 600cc glass beaker
• Glass thermometer 100°C

—Holaday H1-1500, Hi-1501
—Narda 8100, 8200
• Inch scale
• 600 cc non conductive material beaker (glass or
plastic), inside diameter: approx. 8.5cm (3
• Cylindrical and made of borosilicate glass vessel max.
thickness: 3mm
outside diameter: approx. 190mm

MEASURING MICROWAVE ENERGY
LEAKAGE
• Pour 275 ± 15cc of 20°C ± 5°C water in a beaker which
is graduated to 600 cc, and place the beaker on the
center of the turntable.
• Set the energy leakage monitor to 2,450 MHz and use
it following the manufacturer's recommended test
procedure to assure correct result.
• When measuring the leakage, always use the 2 inch
(5cm) spacer supplied with the probe.
• Operate the oven at its maximum output.
• Measure the microwave radiation using and
electromagnetic radiation monitor by holding the probe
perpendicular to the surface being measured.
Move probe along shaded area.
Probe scanning speed;
Less than 2.5 cm/sec
