Installing a Cuproban system

The anodes are preferably installed in the sea chest and secured with specially designed safety caps. Such anodes will have a design life coinciding with dry dock schedules. In-board fitments in the pipeline or in strainers when anodes can be replaced at any time are also possible. The anodes are all wired to one or more common control panels that can also have connections to the pump controlling the water flow. A typical installation is shown in the sketch below.

Features of Cuproban:

The new Cuproban systems come with some very useful features coupled with proven reliability!

	Modular fully electronic control panel with typically one module controlling one flow line. This makes protection of additional flow lines easily feasible by adding modules!
	Unique ANODE-WEAR feature that gives an indication in the control panel when the anode requires replacement. This will give adequate time for planning a replacement.
	Unique ANODE-SAVE feature that controls the current to the anode based on there being flow or no-flow in the pipe-line. This considerably increases anode life in cases where flow is intermittent.
	Pressure tested safety-cap - is the sturdiest in the business and can be safely fitted to the sea chest with no worry of failure.
	Once installed the systems function reliably and efficiently with minimal attention from the crew.

Other products:

For pipelines with space constraints, for instance, warships and submarines, we offer special dual purpose anodes with both the anti-fouling and corrosion control anodes fitted together in a space saving package.

We can also offer for emergency replacements spare anodes of other leading anti-fouling systems.
