Panasonic part number: 2M236-M1 this is also equivalent to the 2M236-M1G magnetron
This magnetron is fitted to some Panasonic inverter type microwaves. Some microwaves such as Bosch and Siemens also use this magnetron as they are rebranded Panasonic ovens. These ovens are upmarket models and are normally well worth repairing.
The 2M236-M1G is the offline version of the 2M236 magnetron, ie the airflow goes against the direction of the mounting brackets. This magnetron is used in some convection oven models. The offline construction allows horizontal mounting of the magnetron which is required in some models. Please note this item is not suitable for replacement of the 2M236-M42. Please see our other listings in the cross selling link below for this item. We also have available the 2M261-M32 which is a version fitted to earlier inverter models.
An inverter microwave oven is one without a high voltage transformer You will know you have one as it is not extremely heavy at one end. This type of microwave uses a high power DC converter, called an inverter, to produce the high voltage and filament voltage required by the magnetron.
Failure of this magnetron is common. An instruction sheet with basic guidelines on fitting will be provided but please do not purchase this item unless you are confident about fitting it. We only accept returns if the magnetron supplied is defective which is extremely unlikely.
