Why regular Cathwell service is essential for ICCP & MGPS/ICAF maintenance
Extending marine asset life and maximising your investment
Sun storms causing corrosion
Telluric current causing corrosion on buried pipelines
Levels of cathodic protection
Cathodic protection involves polarisation of a metal towards more reducing potentials
Antifouling anodes in strainers
Antifouling anodes in the mud box lids to prevent fouling.
Dual-action antifouling & anticorrosion anodes
Cu anodes in pair with Al or Fe anodes to prevent fouling.
MasterCath® remote access system
MasterCath® is designed for remote operation of ICCP and MGPS/ICAF antifouling.
Electrolytic antifouling explained
Low concentration of copper ions prevent marine growth.
Marine fouling in seawater inlets
Marine fouling is an unwanted development of biological organisms.
Design lifetime of sacrificial anodes
The amount of anodes corresponds with the surface to be protected.
Aluminium vs. zinc anodes
Which to use; aluminium or zinc anodes in salt water environments?
Al or Zn anodes in ballast and cargo tanks?
Aluminium anodes have both technical and economical advantages over zinc.
Forms of corrosion
Here is explained 10 common types of corrosion, including galvanic corrosion and flow-assisted corrosion
What is corrosion?
Corrosion is a process of degradation of metals and non-metals
Galvanic series
Galvanic series determines the electro potential and nobility of metals and metal alloys.
Cathodic protection explained
Principles of cathodic protection. How to stop corrosion
Reliable system follow-up
Well-structured system follow-up ensures effective maintenance of ICCP and MGPS/ICAF systems.
