 | DESCRIPTION
|
Graphite Anodes are available with either centre end connections, treated or untreated, bare or packaged in coke breeze and with customer specified cable connections.
|
APPLICATION(S)
|
Graphite anodes are best suited for use in high resistivity environments where anode current density is not a determining factor. Graphite anodes are equally suited to land or marine applications.
Graphite anodes offer increased output when packaged in carbonaceous backfill.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
|
Consumption rates of Graphite Anodes vary with current density, environmental conditions and method of installation. The following are guidance figures only.
| Environment | Current Density (A/m2) | Consumption rate (Kg/ampere/ year) | | Fresh Water | 3 | 0.1 - 0.2 | | Salt Water | 10 | 0.1 - 0.2 | | Wet Carbonaceous Backfill | 10 | 0.05 - 0.1 | | Dry Carbonaceous Backfill | 10 | Negligible |
