Anodes For Cathodic Protection

---

Universal Corrosion Prevention India (UCPI) offers a range of Cathodic Protection (CP) Anodes. These galvanic anodes made from the finest quality zinc, aluminium and magnesium, have been specifically developed for the cathodic protection market.
Typical applications for galvanic anodes include:

• Temporary protection of pipelines
• Temporary protection of tank bottoms
• Permanent protection of well coated pipelines in low resistivity soil
• Permanent protection of buried vessels
• Internal protection of water tanks.

Silicon iron anodes are probably the most commonly used anodes in cathodic protection ground bed construction and the high corrosion resistance of silicon iron and silicon chromium iron alloys means that cathodic protection system lifetime in excess of 20 years may be achieved. The anodes can be used in many different environments, e.g., onshore, seawater and freshwater applications. Silicon iron anodes are for use in neutral soils and freshwater environments. Silicon chromium iron anodes are for use in aggressive acidic or alkaline soils and seawater environments. Mixed metal/metal oxide (MMO) impressed current anodes have been designed for their use in specific cathodic protection applications. The MMO anode substrate, usually titanium, is activated by the metal oxide coating and is suitable for use in soils, carbonaceous backfill, fresh and brackish water, seawater and concrete. The company, promoted by a group of dynamic and highly experienced IIT engineers, offer a full array of materials, installation, testing, maintenance and total project management in the field of corrosion prevention and cathodic protection to safeguard important infrastructure, installations and facilities from corrosion.
