Civil Probe is an isolated impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) anode that utilizes an innovative Mixed Metal Oxide and titanium composite with an integral gas venting system.
Anodes are available in a range of sizes and diameters to provide excellent design flexibility. It satisfy the 100mV potential shift requirement for effective cathodic protection as specified under National Association of Corrosion Engineers Standard RP 0290.
Applications:
Bridge decks & substructures.
Parking garages.
Marine structures
Steel framed buildings
Working nature:
Impressed current systems utilize an external power source that provides protective current to mitigate corrosion activity. Permanently installed anodes and the embedded reinforcing steel are connected to an AC/DC rectifier that forces the steel to a cathodic or protective condition. Impressed current systems provide a high level of protection but should be properly monitored and maintained to ensure long-term performance.
Features and Benefits:
Gas venting - no buildup of anodic
gases. Can be installed under fiber-reinforced polymer or PE material.
Embedded installation - no added
dead weight loading or increase to physical dimensions of structure from thick overlays.
Long lasting - 25+ year service life,
the longest of any discrete CP anode system.
Highest level of protection - satisfies
the 100mV depolarization criteria for effective cathodic protection.
Proven technology - field verified
performance.
Cost competitive - compared to
other types of ICCP anodes.
Deep installation - addresses multi-
levels of steel and difficult access.
High operating current - suitable for
use in areas of high steel density.
Versatile - can be used in new
construction as a preventative measure.
