Abstract

An arrangement for controlling the microwave power of magnetrons, in which a multiple of magnetrons are connected in parallel with a power unit (3) for generating a high magnetron-operating voltage, and which arrangement includes for each magnetron (1,2) a separate regulating circuit (9) which includes a current measuring circuit (10) for measuring the anode current passing through respective magnetrons, and in which arrangement the waveguides (70) to which the magnetrons are connected have earth potential. The invention is characterized in that the anode (4) of each magnetron (1, 2) is isolated electrically from the earth potential, in that the current measuring circuit (10) is connected between the anode (4) of the magnetron and the one terminal (23) of the power unit, and in that an over-voltage protector (78) is connected in parallel with the measuring circuit (10) for the purpose of limiting the voltage on the magnetron anode (4) in the event of a disruption in or failure of the measuring circuit (10).
