High Silicon Cast Iron Anode

High Silicon Cast Iron AnodeHigh Silicon Cast Iron Anode

Application:

High Silicon Cast Iron Anodes have been used for many decades to protect buried and submerged structures from corrosion. This anodes can operate effectively in a variety of electrolytes, from soil and freshwater to brackish and salt water environments.  Under normal conditions, a thin film of silicon dioxide will develop on its surface, this film protects the anodes from metal pitting and makes them ideally suited for deep groundbed application.

Features and Benefits:

☆High Silicon Cast Iron grounding rods offer a technologically superior alternative to copper grounding that overcomes the performance dampening effect that it can have on cathodic protection systems.

☆Mitigate harmful and expensive corrosion couples between bare copper electricalgroundings and vulnerable underground steel piping and structures.

☆Reduce installation and operating costs for cathodic protection.

☆Overcome copper grounding effects that seriously compromise monitoring and control of Cathodic Protection for associated piping and structures.

☆Withstand corrosive environments that consume copper groundings.
