De Nora Rod Anodes

De Nora Rod Anodes are comprised of a titanium substrate with a mixed metal oxide coating. The mixed metal oxide is a crystalline, electrically conductive coating that activates the titanium and enables it to function as an anode.

Standard length is 4 ft, but the anodes may be custom cut to virtually any length. They are available in the following diameters: 1/8", 1/4", 1/2", 3/4". Anode coatings may be selected to match fresh water, brackish water, seawater, coke, or sand environments.

Applications
  • Process Vessels

  • Water Condenser Boxes

  • Heat Exchangers

  • Water Intake Structures

  • Groundbed

Features

  • High Current Output
  • Low Coating Wear Rate
  • Five Year Product Warranty
  • Also available as Rod Anode Assemblies

Benefits

  • Lower Cost per Ampere-Year
  • Constant Electrical Resistance
  • No Hassles

Rod Anodes Sizes

De Nora Rod Anodes are available in these standard sizes:
  • 1/8" x 4'
  • 1/4" x 4'
  • 1/2" x 4'
  • 3/4" x 4'

Selection of the anode coating is based on operating environment:

  • FW Freshwater or Brackish Water
  • SW Seawater

Drag & Vibration Data of Rod Anode Assembly

   

Anode Life Data

Due to the extremely low consumption rates and dimensional stability of mixed metal oxide anodes, the electrical resistance of De Nora Rod Anodes remains essentially constant with time. The high current density capacity of De Nora mixed metal oxide anodes has the added advantage of allowing high current overloads for initial polarization without causing harm to the anode.
