CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
GENERAL DETAILS
•The low voltage transformer supplies the necessary
voltage to the micom controller when power cord is
plugged in.
• When the door is closed, the primary switch is ON, the
secondary switch is ON, and the monitor switch opens
(contact COM and NO).
WHEN SELECTING COOKING POWER
LEVEL AND TIME
• The micom controller memorizes the function you set.
• The time you set appears in the display window.
• Each indicator light turns on to indicate that the stage
has been set.
WHEN TOUCHING THE START PAD
• The coil of the relay is energized by the micom
controller.
• Power input is supplied to the high voltage transformer
through the fuse to the primary switch and relay 2.
• Turntable rotates.
• Cooking time starts counting down.
• 3.2 volts AC is generated from the filament winding of
the high voltage transformer. This 3.2 volts is applied to
the magnetron to heat the magnetron filament through
two noise-preventing choke coils.
• A high voltage of approximately 2100 volts AC is
generated in the secondary of the high voltage
transformer which is increased by the action of the high
voltage diode and charging of the high voltage
capacitor.
• The negative 4000 Volts DC is applied to the filament
of the magnetron.
WHEN THE OVEN IS SET AT ANY LEVEL
EXCEPT MAXIMUM.
• The micom controller controls the ON-OFF time of relay
2 by the applied signal to vary the average output
power of microwave oven as POWER LEVEL.
(refer to page 1-1)
WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED DURING
COOKING
• Both the primary switch and relay 2 are cut off primary
winding voltage of the high voltage transformer.
• ON-OFF of relay 2 is coupled electrically with opening
and closing of the secondary switch.
• When the door is opened, the secondary switch is
opened and when the door is closed, the secondary
switch is closed.
• The cooking time stops counting down.
• Relay stops functioning.
• As the door is opened, if the contact of primary switch
and relay 2 and/or secondary switch fails to open, the
fuse opens due to the large current surge caused by
the monitor switch activation, which in turn stops
magnetron oscillation.

operated at its maximum microwave power setting with
a load of (1000±5) g of potable water.
• The water is contained in a cylindrical borosilicate glass
vessel having a maximum material thickness of 3 mm
and an outside diameter of approximately 190mm.
• The oven and the empty vessel are at ambient
temperature prior to the start of the test.
• The initial temperature (T1) of the water is (10±2)°C. It
is measured immediately before the water is added to
the vessel. After addition of the water to the vessel,
the load is immediately placed on the center of the
turntable which is in thd lowest position and the
microwave power switched on.
• The time T for the temperature of the water to rise by a
value ∆T of (10±2)°K is measured, where T is the time
in seconds and ∆T is the temperature rise. The initial
and final water temperatures are selected so that the
maximum difference between the final water
temperature and the ambient temperature is 5°K.

make the necessary adjustment or replace the
switch only with the same type of switch.
B. SECONDARY INTERLOCK SWITCH TEST
Disconnect the wire lead from the secondary
switch.
Connect the ohmmeter leads to the common
(COM) and normally open (NO) terminals of the
switch. The meter should indicate a open circuit in
the door open condition. When the door is closed,
meter should indicate an closed circuit. When the
secondary switch operation is abnormal, make the
necessary adjustment or replace the switch only
with the same type of switch.
C. MONITOR SWITCH TEST
Disconnect the wire lead from the monitor switch.
Connect the ohmmeter leads to the common
(COM) and normally closed (NC) terminals of the
switch. The meter should indicate closed circuit in
the door open condition. When the door is closed,
meter should indicate an open circuit. When the
monitor switch operation is abnormal, replace with
the same type of switch.
NOTE: After repairing the door or the interlock
system, it is necessary to do this continuity
test before operating the oven.
