Anode Coating |
|
ELTECH wire anodes are copper cored titanium wire with a
mixed metal oxide coating. The mixed metal oxide is a
crystalline, electrically-conductive coating that activates
the titanium and enables it to function as an anode.
ELTECH wire anodes are manufactured in two diameters, 1.5
millimeter and 3.0 millimeter.
When applied on titanium, the coating has an extremely
low consumption rate measured in terms of milligrams per
year. As a result of this low consumption rate, the wire
diameter remains nearly constant during the life of the
anode.
|
The coating used on wire is suitable for most cathodic
protection applications, but output varies with application.
ELTECH's mixed metal oxide coating demonstrates a very high
chemical stability, even in environments with low pH values.
Unlike other impressed current anodes, the ELTECH coating
is not affected by the generation of chlorine.
