IT IS IMPORTANT TO AVOID USING A MAGNETIC-TIPPED
SCREWDRIVER AS IT MAY INTERFERE WITH THE MAGNETRON.
ENSURE THAT THE RADAR (INDICATOR, SCANNER AND ANY
INDIVIDUAL ENGINE CIRCUIT BREAKER) IS COMPLETELY DISCONNECTED
FROM THE NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT POWER BOARD BY A QUALIFIED
ENGINEER.WIRES VISIBLE FROM THE CONNECTOR.
PLACE A SIGN ON THE INDICATOR AND MACHINERY TO INDICATE THAT
WORK IS BEING DONE AT THE STATION TO PREVENT EXCESSIVE RADIATION
EXPOSURE.
PROCEED TO THE SCANNER OF THE AFFECTED RADAR, USING A
SAFETY BELT
WHEN REPLACING MAGNETRONS, MAKE SURE TO SHUT OFF THE MAIN POWER
AND LET THE EQUIPMENT STAND FOR MORE THAN 5 MINUTES TO DISCHARGE THE
HIGH-VOLTAGE CIRCUIT. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN ELECTROCUTION.
When mounting a new magnetron, do not touch the magnet with a
screwdriver or put it on an iron plate. After replacement, connect the lead
wire correctly.
Replacement of magnetron
Scanner Unit NKE-1130
Required tools
• A Phillips screwdriver for 4 mm screw
• A Phillips screwdriver for 6 mm screw
• A wrench (width across flats 13 mm, for M8 screws)
Replacement procedure
1) Before starting part replacement work, turn
off the safety switch of the scanner unit.
The safety switch is located on the rear (stern)
side. Remove the cover and turn off (to the
lower side) the safety switch.
2) Remove the pedestal cover.
Make sure that there is no foreign matter or
dust adhered to the gasket when you put the
cover on.
Removing the port side cover
3) Remove the cover on the left (port)
side and check that there is no
remaining electric charge between
J2101 pin 1 and J2101 pin 3 in the
modulation circuit board CPA-
264. (Multimeter requires
DC1000V input capability).
Remove the two screws (M4)
holding the magnetron cables
(both yellow and green).
4) Remove the eight screws (M6)
to
remove the fixture holding the
magnetron. The screws cannot
be
removed from the fixture, so
loosen the
all eight screws and remove the
magnetron together with the
fixture.
The magnetron is held by a hook, but be
careful not to let it fall.
Use a non-magnetic screwdriver. If the
magnetron comes into contact with any metal
(tool), its performance may
deteriorate.
5) Install the new magnetron together with the fixture and tighten the screws to
hold the cables.
Follow the removal procedure in the reverse order.
Do not forget to tighten the screws and connect the cables.
Operation check
After you have completed the replacement work, follow the procedure
below to check the operation.
1) Turn on the power supply for the radar. Allow sufficient time for the radar to be
preheated (about 20 to 30 minutes / bring the radar unit to STBY mode).
2) Start emitting radio waves from the short pulse range and gradually change the
emissions to the long pulse range. Open the service engineer menu to perform
tuning adjustment.If operation becomes unstable such as the magnetron current
is unstable, bring the radar unit back to STBY mode and restart emission after
allowing for an interval of 5 to 10 minutes.
3) Emit radio waves in long pulse range mode for about 15 minutes and reopen
the service engineer menu to perform tuning adjustment. Adjust the setting in the
service engineer menu until the tuning indication bar on the display unit reaches
the 8th calibration marking. Check in the service engineer menu that the
magnetron current is between the 6th and 9th calibration markings.
4) Finally, initialize the transmission time in the service engineer menu.
Scanner Unit NKE-2254, NKE-1125
Required tools
• A Phillips screwdriver for 4 mm screw

• A wrench (width across flats 13 mm, for M8 screws)
Replacement procedure
1) Before starting part replacement work, turn
off the safety switch of the scanner unit.
2) Loosen the hexagonal bolts (4) and
remove the pedestal cover.
Make sure that there is no foreign matter
or dust adhered to the gasket when you
put the cover on
When the starboard side cover is removed.
3) Loosen the screws (four M4 screws) to
remove the magnetron cover.
4) Make sure there is no charge remaining
between J2101 pin 1 and J2101 pin 3 in
the modulation circuit board CPA-264
(Multimeter requires DC1000V input
capability), and then remove the screws
(two M4 screws) holding the magnetron
cables (yellow and green) in place.
5) Remove the screws (four M4 screws)
holding the magnetron in place, then
replace the magnetron after cutting the
leads (yellow and green) for the
replacement magnetron to an
appropriate length.
Use a non-magnetic screwdriver. If the magnetron comes into contact
with any metal (tool), its performance may deteriorate.
6) After having replaced the magnetron, reassemble the unit by
following the disassembly procedure in the reverse order.
Do not forget to tighten the bolts and screws, and do not forget to
reconnect the cables.
Extreme care should be taken to connect the leads (yellow and green) to
the magnetron for prevention of contact with other parts or the casing.
Contact may cause them to discharge.
Operation check
After you have completed the replacement work, follow the procedure below to
check the operation.
1) Turn on the power supply for the radar. Allow sufficient time for the radar to be
preheated (about 30 to 40 minutes / bring the radar unit to STBY mode).
2) Start emitting radio waves from the short pulse range and gradually change
the emissions to the long pulse range. Open the service engineer menu to
perform tuning adjustment. If operation becomes unstable such as the
magnetron current is unstable, bring the radar unit back to STBY mode and
restart emission after allowing for an interval of 5 to 10 minutes.
3) Emit radio waves in long pulse range mode for about 15 minutes and reopen
the service engineer menu to perform tuning adjustment.
Adjust the setting in the service engineer menu until the tuning indication bar on
the display unit reaches the 8th calibration marking.
Check in the service engineer menu that the magnetron current is between the
6th and 9th calibration markings.
4) Finally, initialize the transmission time in the service engineer menu.
