5.5. Temperature thermistor
The thermistor that is attached to the magnetron detects the
temperature of the magnetron and will stop magnetron
operation when overheating is detected. A normal thermistor´s
resistance is 35K
Ω
to 110K
Ω
for an ambient temperature range
of 10-30 degree C.
If the resistance reading is out of the range stated here, the
thermistor is detective and must be replaced.
It is also possible to display thermistor level by taking the
following steps.
1. Program the DPC into TEST MODE (Plug-in oven
→
press
Timer / Clock button twice
→
press Start button once
→
press Power Level button once).
2. Program oven at Standing Time for 1 minute and press
[Start] button.
3. Press Power Level once, the thermistor level reading will
shown on the display.
The normal reading should be in the range of 16-240.
