3. EMC EMISSION TEST
3.1 Test Procedure
Test Requirement: 47 CFR PART 18
Test Method: FCC/OST MP-5:1986
Power Supply: 120VAC/60Hz
Frequency Range: 2400-2500MHz
Detector: Peak
Limit: ISM equipment may be operated at any frequency above 9KHz; the band 2400-2500MHz is allocated for ISM equipment.
3.1.1 Frequency For Normal Voltage
The operating frequency was measured using a spectrum analyzer. With the EUT at room temperature, a 1000mL water load was placed in the center of the oven and operated at maximum output power. The fundamental operating frequency was monitored until the water load was reduced to 20 percent of the original load.
3.1.2 Frequency For Line Voltage
The EUT was warmed up by at least 10 minutes of use with a 1000mL water load at room temperature. The operating frequency was then monitored as the input voltage was varied between 80 and 125 percent of the nominal rating.
3.1.3 Measurement data
Operating Mode | Frequency (MHz) |
---|---|
Normal Voltage | 2432.5-2469.8 |
Line Voltage | 2433.6-2470.1 |
3.2 RADIATION HAZARD TEST
3.2.1 Test Setup
The EUT was set up according to FCC MP-5 and FCC Part 18. A microwave leakage meter was used to measure radiation leakage with the oven door closed. A 700 mL water load in a beaker was placed in the center of the oven, and the microwave oven was set to maximum power. The maximum leakage was recorded.
3.2.2 Limit
A maximum of 1.0 mW/cm² is allowed per applicable FCC standards.
3.2.3 Test results
Test location | Test result (mW/cm²) | Limit (mW/cm²) | Verdict |
---|---|---|---|
Left side | 0.25 | 1.0 | Pass |
Right side | 0.32 | 1.0 | Pass |
Front | 0.41 | 1.0 | Pass |
Rear | 0.22 | 1.0 | Pass |
No microwave leakage exceeding 0.41 mW/cm² was observed at any point 5cm or more from the external surface of the oven.
3.3 RF OUTPUT POWER MEASUREMENT
3.3.1 Test Standard
Test Requirement: 47 CFR PART 18
Test Method: FCC/OST MP-5:1986
Power Supply: 120VAC/60Hz
3.3.2 EUT Operating mode
The EUT was tested in microwave mode at full power. 1000 g ±5 g of water was added to a container. The food support was placed in the center. The oven was operated, and the time for the water temperature to reach 20 ±2°C was measured. The oven was then switched off, and the final water temperature was measured within 60 seconds.
3.3.3 Test Data
Mass of Water (g) | Mass of the container (g) | Ambient temperature (°C) | Initial temperature (°C) | Final temperature (°C) | Heating Time (S) | Output Power (Watt) |

0.50 - 5 | 56 | 46 |
5 - 30 | 60 | 50 |
Note: The limit decreases linearly with the logarithm of the frequency in the range 0.15 MHz to 0.5 MHz. The lower limit is applicable at the transition frequency.
4.1.2 Test Procedure
The EUT was placed on an 0.8m high insulating table, 0.4m away from the grounded conducting wall. The EUT was connected to the power mains through a LISN (Line Impedance Stabilization Network) providing 50/50µH coupling impedance. A common antenna was used for the call between the EUT and the System Simulator (SS). A Pulse Limiter protected the measuring instrument. Test system factors were calibrated to correct readings.
4.1.3 Test Setup
The test setup involved placing the EUT on an insulating table. A LISN was connected to the EUT's power input and to a receiver. The setup maintained specified distances from walls and ground.

5. RADIATED EMISSION
5.1.1 Radiated Emission Limits
ISM equipment operation is permitted unlimited radiated energy in the specified frequency bands (18.301).
Field strength levels of emissions outside specified bands:
- RF Power generated (watts) | Field strength limit (µV/m) @300m
- Below 500W: 25 µV/m
- 500W or more: 25*SQRT(power/500) µV/m
For Power = 609.32W, the limit at 3m distance was calculated.
5.1.2 Test Setup
For radiated emissions from 30MHz to 1GHz: The EUT was placed on a rotating table 0.8 meters above the ground at a 3-meter open area test site. The test antenna height varied between 1 m to 4 m, with both horizontal and vertical polarizations tested.
For radiated emissions above 1GHz: Similar setup with appropriate antenna height and polarization adjustments.
5.1.3 Test Procedure
Measurements were taken at a 3-meter distance. The EUT was placed on a rotating table 0.8 meters above the ground. The table was rotated 360 degrees to find the highest radiation point. The height of the test antenna was varied between 1m to 4m. Both horizontal and vertical polarizations of the antenna were used. Initial pre-scanning used a peak detector; significant peaks were then re-measured using a Quasi Peak detector. If peak mode measurements complied with QP limits, no further QP measurement was performed. Both horizontal and vertical antenna polarities were tested, and emissions were reported based on the worst-case orthogonal axis.
Test Result: Radiation disturbances
Antenna polarization: Setup 1, Horizontal (30MHz - 1GHz)
