Anodeflex 3000 Series products are impressed-current, long-line flexible anodes for cathodic protection of buried pipelines, in-plant piping and of on-grade or buried storage tanks. Anodeflex 3000 products include an MMO wire connected at fixed distances to a central dual-insulated copper conductor cable to deliver cathodic current without incurring substantial longitudinal voltage drop. The manufacturing process centers the anode in a tightly packed fill material, all packaged in a synthetic jacket and protective braiding.
Key Features & Benefits
- Anode is in close proximity to the pipeline
- Distributes current uniformly over total length of pipeline
No Over/under Protection
- Prevents accelerated coating disbondment
- More effective & economical than a series of "discrete" anodes
- Independent of variations in soil resistivity
Pipeline Rehabilitation Without Excavation
- A fraction of the cost of pipeline recoating
- No loss of revenue or supply interruptions
- No safety issues associated with working on live pipelines
Long, Continuous Circuit Lengths
- Fewer joints as compared to conventional anode systems
- Low maintenance costs
Avoid Interference & Stray Current Issues
- Enchances long-term performance
- Focuses current on the target structure
- Improves protection and cost efficiency
Prepackaged Carbon Backfill
- Loresco SC-3 utilized
- Ensures low resistance ground bed
- Ensures the anode is centered
- Simplifies field installation
Installation with Standard Cable Laying Equipment
