Overview
The CerAnode™ Rod Assembly (CRA) is a high-performance EMMO™ (Enhanced Mixed-Metal Oxide) rod anode engineered for impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) systems across demanding environments. Designed for pipeline, tank, marine, and groundbed applications, it delivers consistent current output and long-term durability.
Constructed on a titanium substrate with a ceramic EMMO™ coating, the CRA provides a stable, corrosion-resistant surface optimized for extended service life. Factory-assembled cable connections and terminations ensure ultra-low electrical resistance and eliminate variability associated with field assembly.
Pre-engineered for reliability and ease of installation, the CRA enables efficient deployment of high-performance cathodic protection systems in both buried and submerged environments.
