Microwave door with viewing window

摘要

The microwave unit door includes a metallic door frame (1) with an interior glass pane (3) and outer glass pane (2) held spaced apart in it. To improve the observability of the interior of the microwave unit without loosing the microwave shielding effect, e.g. previously provided by a metal screen between the glass panes, and to prevent condensate formation, the interior glass pane (3) closest to the processing space (I) has at least one optically transparent electrically conductive first layer (13) with a microwave absorption capability such that it heats up to prevent condensate formation during operation. The outer glass pane (2) has at least one optically transparent electrically conductive second layer (12) reflecting microwaves passing through the first layer.
