Zinc ribbon anode is widely used in petroleum and chemical industries as well as ocean engineering, transportation, power supply, pipeline system and municipal structures, etc.
Properties of Zinc Ribbon Anodes
★ Good flexibility and easy installation. Easy conformance to any length and configuration.
★ Even and efficient distribution, high current efficiency (greater than 95%).
★ It can be applied to higher resistance environment.
★ No external power needed and fewer electrical connections.
★ It can be applied to narrow installation spaces and odious environments.
★ Minimum resistance to earth and high current output per unit weight.
★ Function as ground wire to release current and thunderbolt charge, protecting equipments and people.
Applications Scope of Zinc Ribbon Anode
★ Application to cathodic protection for pipelines.
★ Application to cathodic protection for inner and outer sleeves in oil and gas wells and for jacket pipelines.
★ Application to cathodic protection for storage tanks.
★ Application to cathodic protection for buried pipelines against the disturbance of alternating current and thunderbolts.
★ Application to cathodic protection for reinforced concrete, e.g. bridge surface.
★ Application to cathodic protection for grounding steel tower footings of overhead power system.
★ Application to other fields.
