Product Overview
TankGard impressed current cathodic
protection systems were developed by Deepwater Corrosion Services in the
mid-1980’s specifically to address harsh environment upstream process tanks
and vessels.
The systems were pioneered in the San Joaquin
Valley oilfields of California where produced water was hot and acid, and
the systems had a high tendency for scaling and sludging.
Deepwater installed several prototype systems
where all combinations of anodes and reference electrodes were evaluated.
The result was a reliable low cost system that has proven to last the 10
year design life.
The heart of the system is the innovative
FlangeMate anode-mount. This system isolates the ICCP anode from the vessel
within the mount, thus eliminating spark hazards from insulated flange or
Victaulic mounts.
Polatrak® HP-1Z™ and RT-1Z™ reference
electrodes coupled with an IR Free potentially controlled power unit
complete the system.
Applications
