Martindale’s TEK500 is a PASS / FAIL microwave leakage detector for testing both commercial and domestic microwave ovens. The unit is designed to comply with UK & European standards on permitted exposure levels, and it will indicate leakage levels by a simple-to-use traffic light system which illuminates bright LEDs.
The self-test feature simulates a real microwave input in order to ensure the unit is working correctly at all times. The leakage tester will indicate at 1, 5 and 10mW/cm2, in accordance with BS EN5175.
The full test procedure for microwave ovens includes checking that the microwave is heating correctly. The kit includes a second beaker and digital thermometer with simple instructions for checking power output to achieve full compliance with the requirements.
The microwave leakage detector kit is supplied with the leakage detector, two beakers, a digital thermometer, a carry case, an instruction manual and a battery. The manual includes the calculations to apply when measuring the microwave output.
