Abstract

A complete unit for simultaneous production of warm air and microwave energy is ready for delivery. The device contains three transmitters with wave-guides (8) for microwave energy, power components (9) and a fan (10). The fan blows cooling air past the power components and transmitters. The heated air can be used for removal of the water, that the microwave transmitters vaporize. The device can easily be moved from one cavity to another. With three transmitters connected one on each phase a balanced load of the mains is achieved. An induction motor drives the fan.
