INTERLOCK CONTINUITY TEST

A. PRIMARY INTERLOCK SWITCH TEST

       When the door is pulled slowly with the door closed, an audible click 

should be heard at the same time or successively at intervals. When the 

door is closed slowly, the latches should activate the switches with an 

audible click. If the latches do not activate the switches when the door is 

closed, the switches should be a adjusted in accordance with the 

adjustment procedure. Disconnect the wire lead from the primary switch. 

Connect the ohmmeter leads to the common (COM) and normally open 

(NO) terminal of the switch. The meter should indicate an open circuit in 

the door open condition. 

When the door is closed, the meter should indicate a closed circuit. 

When the primary switch operation is abnormal, 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. Check Common and normally open terminals,too. Opposite result 

of Common-normally close test is normal. 

NOTE: After repairing the door or the interlock system, it is 

necessary to do this continuity test before operating the oven. 

WARNING :  FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST EXCESSIVE RADIATION EMISSION, REPLACE ONLY WITH 

IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.

TYPE NO.SZM-V 16-FA-63 FOR PRIMARY SWITCH / TYPE NO.SZM-V 16-FA-61 FOR MONITOR SWITCH / TYPE NO.SZM-V 16-FA-63 FOR SECONDARY SWITCH
