The flexible anode is the core component of the entire cathodic protection system. It is a linear, flexible, carbon-based anode system installed near pipelines, oil tanks, or other protected structures and connected to the positive terminal of an external power source. The protected structures, such as tanks and pipelines, are connected to the negative terminal, forming a complete circuit. When energized, an appropriate amount of cathodic protection current is evenly distributed through the conductor to every part, ensuring comprehensive protection of the structure. The flexible anode system consists of basic units including a 6AWG copper conductor, conductive polymer, pure activated carbon, acid-resistant material layer, and a braided protective mesh. Product Features: The key element of the flexible anode is the central copper conductor, supplemented by conductive polymer. This structure not only prevents the copper core from chemical corrosion but also ensures long-distance current transmission. At the same time, a small amount of cathodic protection current continuously diffuses into the conductive polymer layer, allowing current penetration along the entire length of the layer. The outer layer of the conductive polymer is high-performance activated carbon, and the outermost layer is wrapped with an acid and alkali-resistant braided material. This structure makes it easy to handle loose activated carbon on-site, simplifying the installation process. The flexible anode can be installed in close proximity to the protected structure, resolving interference issues; It is a non-corrosive anode and does not cause environmental pollution; It has a long service life, high reliability, and simple installation.
