For a microwave leakage detector that is extremely straightforward to use, the Martindale TEK500 Microwave Leakage detector comes highly recommended. This particular instrument is most suited for being used with microwave ovens that are domestic or commercial. It also has an LED indicator that lets the user know when levels of leakage have been taken.
This microwave detector comes with a special self-testing feature that can simulate the input of real microwaves as a way of testing whether it is functioning correctly. The leakage tester can indicate levels of microwaves at 1, 5, and 10W/cm2. This Martindale instrument tests to the BS5175 safety standards.
Part of the procedure for testing microwave ovens is to ensure that it is heating up correctly. Included with this microwave leakage detector are a digital thermometer and a beaker which are there to make sure that tests are carried out to the best of their abilities. These tests also include that this microwave detector is fully compliant with testing and safety requirements.
Also supplied with the Martindale TEK500 Microwave Leakage detector kit, as well as the leakage detector and digital thermometer, are a carrying case and a detailed instruction manual. To make the user’s job easier, the manual contains all of the necessary calculations that would ever be needed to accurately calculate the microwave output.
