CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
 
 
As the door is closed, the contact of MONITOR                   
SWITCH opens. This switch creates the short circuit to 
blow fuse during operation under abnormal condition. 
(ie, should the contacts of primary and secondary 
switch fail to open the circuit) 
 
• The latches are secured by latch board. The oven light 
turns on while the oven is in operation. 
 
WHEN MICROWAVE POWER LEVEL 
AND COOKING TIME SET 
• The contacts of the timer switch changes to ON 
position when the timer knob is rotated. 
(While power control knob is set ) 
• The contacts of primary and secondary switch close 
the circuit. 
• Input Volts AC. is applied to the high voltage 
transformer through V.P.C.   
 
• Turntable rotates. 
• The fan motor rotates and cools the magnetron by 
blowing the air (coming from the intake holes on the 
baseplate) over the magnetron. 
• The air is also directed into the oven to exhaust the 
vapor in the oven through the upper plate. 
• Timer starts rotating. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
• 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 
diode and charging of the high voltage capacitor. 
The negative DC voltage is then applied to the filament 
of the magnetron 
WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED DURING 
COOKING 
• Both primary switch and secondary switch open to cut 
off the primary winding voltage to the high voltage 
transformer to stop microwave oscillation. 
• Timer, turntable and fan motor stop. 
• As the door is opened, if the contact of primary switch 
fail to open, the fuse opens due to the large current 
surge caused by the monitor switch activation which in 
turn stops magnetron,oscillation.
