ICCP Anode
Cathodic Protection Systems are essential to safeguard a wide range of metallic structures across challenging environments. Common applications include steel, water or fuel pipelines, huge oil tanks, chemical storage tanks, steel pier piles, ship and boat hulls, offshore oil platforms, onshore oil well casings, and reinforced concrete buildings.
Galvanic or Sacrificial Anodes come in various shapes and sizes, crafted from zinc, magnesium, and aluminum alloys. For this method to work, the anode must have a lower (more negative) electrode potential than the cathode (the protected structure).
Traditionally, galvanic anodes were used to protect cathodes but required yearly replacement — a costly and time-consuming process.
Modern Solution: Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) systems drastically reduce maintenance. These systems use anodes powered by DC sources (like transformer-rectifiers or solar panels) to provide consistent, long-lasting protection — designed by expert CP engineers.
Tiaano leads the industry, supplying diverse cathodic protection anodes to over 63 countries, particularly excelling in mass supply to power plants — and growing stronger every year.
