Microwave Magnetron Overview.
The Frigidaire brand encompasses several others, including Electrolux, Gibson, Tappan, and Sears-Kenmore. This magnetron is a genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part designed for use in Frigidaire microwave ovens. It is situated behind the waveguide plate within the microwave’s chamber and is essential for the appliance's function. The magnetron produces electromagnetic waves, specifically at a frequency of 2.45GHz, which are then concentrated by a coil and directed through the waveguide to heat and cook food efficiently. This process is powered by a high-voltage transformer.
Several factors can lead to magnetron failure, typically stemming from long-term use. These include the breakdown of the cathode filament or insulator, as well as the depletion of the filament or other high-voltage components.
When a magnetron is failing, some common signs include:
- Food that is unevenly cooked or remains undercooked despite being set on high power.
- The appearance of discolored or burnt areas on food.
- The microwave continues to operate with no visible arcing.
- Unusual noises such as sparking sounds, or the smell of burning coming from the chamber.
This Frigidaire magnetron is also compatible with certain models from Electrolux, Gibson, and some Kenmore microwaves, making it a versatile replacement part.
