Ti Anode Fabricators Pvt Ltd., India – having in-house facilities for manufactures ICCP anodes, for impressed current cathodic protection applications. Marine structures are commonly cathodically protected by impressed current Cathodic protection is effective for the embedded and submerged sections of the pile. It becomes less effective in increasing height of the splash zone where coatings need to be considered.

Cathodic Protection on Jetties

Cathodic Protection is a method to protect the steel pile wall of a jetty from corrosion. The Cathodic Protection on the steel piles works in the seawater and will only be active from the area below the splash zone and the bottom of the Splash zone jacket till in the seabed. The protection of the area covered on the steel pile in the seabed depends on the method of the Cathodic Protection.

ICCP Anode Design

The anodes are normally used in the form of solid titanium plate, rod or tube substrate, certain cases niobium may be used, if a higher operating voltage is required. The substrate is provided with mixed metal Oxide coating consisting of mainly IrO2/Ta2O5 and Platinum plating suitable for use in seawater. Platinised anodes perform extremely well in seawater environments exhibiting a large current density and an extremely low consumption rate
