| Product Overview
The VSE (Vaulted Seawater Envelope) anode
is designed to provide reliable long-term cathodic protection in shallow
water locations where the anode system must be buried below natural bottom.
The anode design maintains the MMO activated
element in a silt-free seawater envelope, and current is discharged from the
anode footprint. This allows optimization of current rating versus
dimension, thus minimizing installation cost, and increasing reliability.
The anode structure is engineered to
self-bury, and the ultra rugged construction will withstand suction dredging
or bottom trawl operations. This makes the VSE ideal for retrofit, as well
as for new construction, when shallow water structures are at stake.
Designed for the offshore wind energy
operators, VSE offers an elegant green impressed current solution, utilizing
renewable energy.
Applications
- Offshore wind-turbines
- Shallow water offshore / inshore
structures
- Docks, wharves, piers and jetties
- Offshore pipelines
- Outfalls and other inshore structures
Main Benefits
- Reliable operation of impressed current
in saline mud / sand burial situations.
- Will work in seawater, river, or
brackish water.
- Simplified installation.
- Can be installed under scour protection
(rip rap) without fear of damage.
- Optimized low resistance vs. dimension
for a buried anode system.
