This manual is designed to assist engineers who have been on a recognised product familiarisation and training course run by Merrychef Limited. It has been prepared to offer technical guidance for the Merrychef Mealstream 400 range of Combination Microwave Ovens.
Installation instructions Positioning the Oven In order to maintain adequate ventilation for air intake and exhaust, and to allow access for cleaning the air filters, you must allow a minimum of 50mm(2 inches) clearance at the sides and rear of the oven, and at least 150mm above. Air intake temperature should not exceed 35°C (95°F).
Electrical installation: WARNING: This appliance must be earthed. Failure to do so may result in electric shock and death All models ( 30A ) must be connected to a separate electrical supply rated at WARNING 30 Amps by a qualified and approved electrician. A suitable 30 amp rated isolating switch with a 3mm contact gap on both poles should be fitted for each oven installed.
Error codes and diagnostics Electronic Control Models The control panel will identify some of the most common problems by flashing an error message code in the time display window. Error Message Possible Cause Service Door not fully shut Close door fully. Possible electrical fault Check Microswitch Door Circuit Check Microswitch Connection to PCB...

Procedure B - Simplified Power Output Test for Field Service Use You will need: Procedure A - Power Output Test In accordance with BS EN 60335-2-90 is not used in the field please Engineers Procedure B. A thermometer capable of reading to ±0.1°C. A Polypropylene tray approximately 200 mm x 200 mm.
Procedure D - High Voltage Capacitor Test A Digital Multi-meter (D.M.M.) You will need: A Megger or similar resistance meter using 500V d.c. WARNING: High voltages and large currents are present at the High Voltage Capacitor. It is very dangerous to work near this part when the oven is on. NEVER make any voltage measurements at the High Voltage circuits, including the magnetron filament .
Door interlock operation The door on the oven is monitored by five microswitches. Three of these are used in the conventional “Primary, Secondary and Monitor” switch arrangement shown below, while the fourth is a low-voltage switch linked directly to the control circuitry and the fifth switches the power to the convection motor.The switches operate as follows: Door open position SW2 Primary...

Procedure for Door Interlock and test: WARNING Before adjusting the microswitch assemblies ensure that the oven has been isolated from the electrical supply and discharge the HT Capacitors. Please note the terminals on the microswitches remain live when the oven is switched off, so complete isolation is essential Tools Required: Door Spacer Kit P10H0129, Multimeter The purpose of this procedure is to set the interlock so that when the...

Remove the 3mm spacers and open and close the door 2 or 3 times to allow the parts to work together. Set a Multimeter Resistance [ Ω ] and connect the meter to the microswitch terminals 37 & Replace the 3mm spacers on the door and over the corners of the seal as before.
