HVG MARINE ANODE 0003

HVG MARINE ANODE 0003: Galvanic Anode

Galvanic anode is also called ‘sacrificial anode’, is used to protect the hulls of ships, water heaters, pipelines, distribution systems, above-ground tanks, underground tanks, and refineries. The anodes in sacrificial anode cathodic protection systems must be periodically inspected and replaced when consumed.
