Magnesium sacrificial anodes are suitable for steel pipelines in soil media such as buried gas transmission pipelines, oil transmission pipelines, and water supply and drainage pipelines. They can also be used for gates and equipment in freshwater environments, making them an ideal sacrificial anode material.
GB/T 17731-2015 Magnesium Alloy Sacrificial Anodes
SY/T0019-97 Design Specification for Cathodic Protection of Buried Steel Pipelines Using Sacrificial Anodes
Pre-packaged magnesium alloy sacrificial anodes represent our company's innovative anode product, developed to meet the demands of high-paced, efficient construction projects. Building upon our previous single-unit sacrificial anodes, this new concept incorporates a complete set of accessories. This design facilitates easier installation, saves time, and better meets customer requirements.
One sacrificial anode of any model;
One cable conductor: Welded to the sacrificial anode according to customer-specified length and specifications, sealed with heat-shrink tubing, etc.;
One package of specialized filler material;
One anode storage bag.
Common cable insulation jacket types include: PVC/PVC, XLPE/PVC, HMWPE.
Quality specifications for pre-packaged magnesium anodes: Cable connection resistance < 0.001 Ohm
Cable specifications: 6 mm², 10 mm², and 16 mm².
Cable connection strength: Exceeds 5 times the weight of the assembled anode.
