Marine Aluminum Alloy Sacrificial Anode
Marine aluminum alloy sacrificial Anode are very flexible in their application. They can be customised to suit the specific needs of a ship to suit different environments and ship structures. When installed, the anodes are usually connected to the ship's metal structure through connectors to ensure good electrical contact. The number and location of anodes are rationalised according to the size and structure of the ship.
Overview
Installation
Marine aluminium anodes are installed in a manner that involves a number of steps and considerations to ensure that they are effective in protecting the ship from corrosion.
Firstly, two coats of anti-rust coating need to be applied to the mounting surface of the sacrificial anode before installation to ensure the anti-rust performance of the mounting surface.
When installing, the sacrificial anode should be in the form of welding, bolting or welding bracket fastener connection, and the length direction of the sacrificial anode should be installed along the streamline direction to ensure that the mounting surface closely fits the ship's hull.
After installation, the working surface of the sacrificial anode is strictly prohibited to be painted or oiled to maintain its normal electrochemical action.
