Operation | 19
The selection knob should be turned off when the meter is not in use.
Standard “Load” Versus Time
Laboratory tests indicate maximum radiation usually occurs within
three minutes after “Power On” with specified load. In order to measure
maximum radiation, scan perimeter of door when power comes on.
This initial scan will take approximately one minute and will locate the
maximum leakage point(s). Monitor the maximum leakage point(s) for
another two minutes.
Range Preparation
Move oven to edge of cabinet so that lower slot (door to cabinet)
overhangs.
• Place 275 cc of cold water in 600 cc beaker and place beaker in center
of oven. Additional suitable beakers are available; see the
Replacement and Optional Parts table in the Maintenance Section of
this manual for more information.
Load specifications: 275 cc of cold tap water in a 600 cc beaker
(Kimax #14005 or equivalent). Do not deviate from the specified.
