CerAnode’s RUGGEDODE™ anode is TOUGH.
Used for heat exchanger, water boxes, pipes, valves, pumps and other in-process applications and features an arc-plasma sprayed dielectric interface between the anode rod and process fitting resulting in greater mechanical strength, dielectric strength and seal integrity.
It is made of a titanium substrate (a strong light weight aerospace metal) and activated with an inert conductive ceramic coating. It is then molded to a plated steel process fitting in conjunction with a plasma sprayed dielectric-ceramic epoxy-FRP interface resulting in high mechanical strength, an excellent process seal and a very high insulation resistance. The anode maintains dimensional stability over its design life.
Designed to fit standard off-the-shelf LB or GALB junction box for rigid conduit or cable glands. Available in a variety of standard and custom sizes.
PiggyBack™ MMO Linear Anode Technology
CerAnode™ developed MMO linear anode technology and assigned the trademark PiggyBack™ in 1992. The technology is used around the world for applications including tank bottoms, underground vessels, bullet tanks and pipelines. The first PiggyBack™ installation was in 1993. Since that time continuous close-proximity anode-to-cathode applications have become a common design approach. In many applications this technology has significant advantages compared to traditional discrete anode arrangements. The technology provides optimized current distribution, optimized polarization characteristics, optimized groundbed resistance, optimized interference mitigation and better than ever power efficiencies.
Depending on the application the linear anode can be ordered with or without Coke Sock.
The sock material employed is GREEN in that it is environmentally safe. The anode’s sock decomposes leaving a conductive horizontal column at the position where it was buried allowing protection currents to pass freely to the structure. The MMO anode core is firmly positioned to protect the structure for many decades.
Since CerAnode manufactures the key components of the system, the product specification can easily be customized. Parameters such as design life, current rating, wire diameter, cable size and insulation type can be specified and manufactured quickly.
PiggyBack™ Tank Bottom Anode
The CerAnode MMO PiggyBack TM Tank Bottom (PBT) Anode System is the best choice for Aboveground Storage Tank (AST) Bottom Soil Side CP. It provides optimized cathodic protection for New Tanks, Existing Tank Bottom Replacement or Double Bottom Applications where space is limited due to a close-proximity plastic secondary-containment liner. The system consists of CerAnode’s MMO anode wire connected to the header cable at preset intervals around the loop by a custom factory design of a series of individual concentric loops with optimized current distribution, anode life and ease of installation is the ideal CP solution. With 100% factory design, factory assembly and factory connections it arrives ready to lay in place. No field connections are necessary.
Plastic mesh option available for applications where the anode will be installed within inches of the tank bottom for added protection against possible anode wire to tank bottom shorts.
Each system is custom designed for the application! 50-Year Design Life.
PiggyBack™ Tank Anode Rectifier
Although this rectifier can be used for many CP applications, we have specifically designed it with our PiggyBack Tank Bottom Anode System in mind. This unit can be customized if required.
