HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER ASSEMBLY TEST
HIGH VOLTAGE RECTIFIER TEST
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage rectifier assembly from the HV circuit. The high voltage rectifier can be
tested using an ohmmeter set to its highest range. Connect the ohmmeter across the terminal
B+C of the high voltage rectifier and note the reading obtained. Reverse the meter leads and note
this second reading. The normal resistance is infinity in one direction and more than 100 kfI in
the other direction.
CARRY OUT $fj CHECKS
ASYMMETRIC RECTIFIER TEST
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
Isolate the high voltage rectifier assembly from the HV circuit. The asymmetric rectifier can be
tested using an ohmmeter set to its highest range. Connect the ohmmeter across the terminals
A+B of the asymmetric rectifier and note the reading obtained. Reverse the meter leads and note
this second reading. If an open circuit is indicated in both directions then the asymmetric rectifier
is good. If a asymmetric rectifier is shorted in either direction, then the the asymmetric rectifier
is probably faultly and must be replaced with the high voltage rectifier. When the asymmetric
rectifier is defective, check whether magnetron, high voltage rectifier, high voltage wire or fila-
ment winding of the power transformer is shorted.
CARRY OUT 4J CHECKS
NOTE: FOR MEASUREMENT OF THE RESISTANCE OF THE RECTIFIER,
OF THE MEASURING INSTRUMENT MUST HAVE A VOLTAGE AT
BECAUSE OTHERWISE AN INFINITE RESISTANCE MIGHT BE S

D HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR TEST
CARRY OUT 3D CHECKS.
A. Isolate the high voltage capacitor from the circuit.
B. Continuity check must be carried out with measuring instrument which is set to the highest
resistance range.
C. A normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time (kick) and then a resistance of about
10 MQ after it has been charged.
D. A short-circuited capacitor shows continuity all the time.
E. An open capacitor constantly shows a resistance about 10 Mf2 because of its internal 10
MI2 resistance.
F. When the internal wire is opened in the high voltage capacitor, the capacitor shows an in-
finite resistance
G. The resistance across all the terminals and the chassis must be infinity when the capacitor
is normal.
If incorrect readings are obtained, the high voltage capacitor must be replaced.
