📝 Abstract
Non-ionizing radiation is the subject of several applications, such as the microwave oven, which is very popular. Its use is characterized by direct user operation and reduced distances between users and the NIR source. Therefore, the level of human exposure in this scenario deserves attention as it is a potential cause of biological effects. In this sense, this paper presents the measurement of a microwave oven with a high level of NIR (above the limit defined by the standard) before and after two types of suggested repairs: the use of epoxy putty (Repair 1) and the replacement of the external surface of the oven (Repair 2). The definitions of measurement methodology, based on FDA and INMETRO standards, are presented and discussed. Finally, we describe an analysis of the efficiency of these repair methods aiming at the safety operation.
