Overview
The CerAnode™ MMO Anode Wire (CPW) is a flexible, high-performance linear anode engineered for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) systems requiring distributed current delivery over extended lengths. Designed for close-proximity and continuous protection, it provides uniform current output across complex geometries and large surface areas.
Constructed with a titanium-based core and a catalytic MMO (mixed-metal oxide) coating, the CPW delivers stable electrochemical performance, low consumption, and extended service life. Multiple core configurations—including solid titanium, copper-cored, and copper-cored niobium variants—enable optimization for conductivity, strength, and installation requirements.
Adaptable and installation-ready, the CerAnode™ MMO Anode Wire supports efficient system design in applications where discrete anodes are impractical or where precise current distribution is required.
Key Features & Benefits
MMO Coating Technology
Catalytic mixed-metal oxide coating provides high electrochemical stability, low consumption, and extended operational life.

CerAnode™ Linear Anode (PBL)
The CerAnode™ Linear Anode (PBL) is a continuous MMO (mixed-metal oxide) anode engineered for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) systems requiring close-proximity, distributed current delivery. Installed parallel to the structure, it provides uniform current output across long runs and complex geometries.
CerAnode™ Linear Anode in Coke Sock (PBL-CS)
The CerAnode™ Linear Anode in Coke Sock (PBL-CS) is a continuous MMO (mixed-metal oxide) anode engineered for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) systems requiring close-proximity, low-resistance current distribution. Packaged within a conductive carbon backfill sleeve, it provides enhanced groundbed contact and uniform current output across extended lengths.
CerAnode™ Canister Anode (CAC-CPW)
The CerAnode™ Canister Anode (CAC-CPW) is a factory-assembled MMO (mixed-metal oxide) anode system engineered for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) in soil and submerged environments. Integrating CerAnode™ MMO Anode Wire within a steel canister pre-filled with conductive carbon backfill, it delivers uniform current distribution and low-resistance performance in distributed groundbed applications.
