TOSHIBA Industrial Magnetron E3327
Provide a protective fence preventing contact with the high-voltage section.
If you approach or touch the electrode section or lead wires while power is
supplied, there is danger of death or injury due to electric shock.
The protective fence should be equipped with safety switches that shut down
the high-voltage power supply as soon as a door or panel is opened.
Pay close attention to water leak from cooling system such as magnetron
and microwave equipment. If water leak occurs at high-voltage section,
there is danger of death or injury due to electric shock.
There is possibility that water leak becomes the cause of malfunction of
the microwave equipment or magnetron.
Install the waveguide and output flange sections securely, so as to prevent
electromagnetic wave leakage. There is danger of irradiation, fire, or burns
due to high-frequency electromagnetic waves. Keep the area around the
equipment free of flammable materials and keep the equipment free of dust.
Otherwise, there is danger of fire.
Provide an X-ray protective barrier because there is possibility that X-ray
Dos
emit when high voltage exceeding 10kV is applied to magnetron.
Otherwise, there is danger of X-ray exposure and the consequent
health-related problems. The protective barrier should be equipped with
safety switches that shut down the high-voltage power supply as soon as
a door or panel is opened.
Provide a safety device which prevents over-currents due to shorting
between the electrode terminals etc. Otherwise, the connection cables
may be heated and there is danger of fire.
Before performing preventive maintenance work, turn OFF the power and
perform grounding of each electrode to enable discharge.
Otherwise, there is danger of death or injury due to electric shock.
When a magnetron incorporating a permanent magnet is to be transported
by air, observe the restrictions specified in the special packing standard
(IATA packing standard 953).
Never supply high voltage when the high-frequency load (output waveguide)
is not connected to the high-frequency output section.
Do not look into the waveguide, the antenna, or the edge section of the
co-axial cable during operation. Doing so may result in loss of eyesight
DON'Ts
due to exposure of the eyes to high-frequency electromagnetic waves.
Persons with cardiac pacemakers must not engage in manufacturing,
operation, or preventive maintenance of the equipment.
There is danger of abnormal operation of cardiac pacemakers.
note) Information in this document is subject to change without notice.
WARNING
Do not lift or carry objects with a weight of more than 20 kg on your own.
Otherwise, there is danger of back injury during lifting or injury due to falling.
During carrying-in and installation, use suitable lifting/carrying-in
equipment or enlist the help of others when carrying heavy objects.
Do not drop the equipment or subject it to shocks. The magnetron may
break or explode and there is danger of injury. Wear gloves and a protective
mask during carrying-in and installation. When the magnetron is
disposed of, inform the disposal technicians of the danger of explosion.
When installing the magnetron, take great care not to let the high frequency
output part come into contact with other parts. Contact may cause
the magnetron to failure.
Be careful when handling the gasket attached to the magnetron.
Never remove the gasket. If the magnetron is operated with the gasket
removed, magnetron arcing and leak of electrical waves (radio frequencies),
DON'Ts
which may affect the human body. In addition, there is a risk of damage to
magnetron and the equipment used. When installing the magnetron,
be careful not to fray the gasket.
Do not touch the main body or peripheral parts during operation or
immediately after operation is stopped. There is a danger of burns due to
high temperatures.
Do not allow any permanent magnets or magnetic objects to come near the
magnetron. They will be attracted by the magnetic field, possibly resulting
in personal injury or damage to the magnetron.
Do not place any goods such as magnetic cards and computer that are
sensitive to magnetic field
When handling a magnetron that has fractured, wear protective gloves,
protective glasses, etc. because the ceramic or metal fragments are sharp
and very dangerous.
Used magnetrons must be disposed by specialized waste disposal personnel.
*The main materials used in this magnetron are as follows:
・Metals(copper, nickel, silver, stainless steel, iron, nickel/iron alloy, aluminum
and so on), Ferrite magnet, Alumna-ceramics, Electric-wire, Insulated-plastic.
Filament containing radioactive substance (thorium) is used for magnetron.
Dos
There is no legal problem as magnetron, but if you disassemble and
discard of it, it may cause a problem, so please discard of it properly in
accordance with the laws and regulations of each country.
Materials such as magnetron and packaging comply with the RoHS Directive.
Please to process properly in accordance with the laws and regulations of
each country.
