Each deep anode bed regardless of the anode used, should have a vent pipe. One of the biggest causes of deep anode bed failure is gas attack on cables and other components. The MATCOR Super-Vent^TM pipe is an inexpensive way to help prevent the failure of a deep anode system.

The MATCOR Super-Vent^TM Pipe is used to vent deep anode beds without blocking, even when used with the finest coke backfill particles. Water and gases can still pass through the fabric outer covering, the vent keeps on working, and you rest easier.

Other vent pipes have exposed holes that will allow coke to enter or are so small that they may not allow enough gas to escape. MATCOR Super-Vent^TM solves all of those problems. Our pipe is perforated with holes larger than normally possible because the perforated area is covered with a special fabric.

The outer fabric covering on the vent pipe has proven itself for years on the MATCOR SPL^TM-Anode. It’s tough, standing up to continuous abuse to help prevent the vent pipe from getting blocked.

Our Super-Vent is recommended for all deep anode systems, including the MATCOR Mini-Deep Anode System.

Below is an example of how the MATCOR Mini-Deep ^TM Anode System and the MATCOR Super-Vent ^TM Vent Pipe are designed to work together.
