Product Overview

Anode grounding iron-silicon AZZHK-G SHIK (deep)

Earthing devices are designed to work complete with cathodic protection converters in any soil and climatic conditions when the electrodes are located below the depth of soil freezing.

The principle of operation of the anode earthing device is aimed at compensating the negative charge of the soil with positive ions.

The reason for the corrosion of metal in the ground is a high level of moisture, heterogeneous structure and high acidity. As a result, different potentials appear on the surface of the metal product, provoking the appearance of rust.

An additional negative factor that accelerates the destruction of metal is stray currents that appear due to movement on the surface of electric vehicles, power stations, towers of mobile operators and other equipment.

The installation of an anode earthing device guarantees compensation of the negative charge and thereby prolongs the service life of metal products. One grounding is able to protect any metal located underground — pipes, containers, flat surfaces, etc.

Selection Notes

Technical Review Points

  • Review soil or electrolyte resistivity, design current demand and installation depth.
  • Confirm cable routing, connection method, backfill requirements and access for testing.
  • Final selection should be checked against the cathodic protection design calculation.
