Anode: The DCA is a heavy-duty 2-inch diameter MATCOR impressed current MMP™-Anode. The anodes are manufactured with a heavier container, welded driving cone and alignment guide at the top of the anode.
Driving Tool: The driving tool is ordered separately in 5-foot or ten foot lengths to reach the desired depth to the top of the anode. Each driving tool is supplied with one coupling.
The DCA cathodic protection system is designed like other MMP-Anode systems. MATCOR engineers can configure and design your complete DCA cathodic protection system, from data collection to complete design drawings and specifications. MATCOR engineers will require the depth to the top of the anode to specify sufficient cable on the anode to reach the desired termination. The MATCOR driving tool is purchased separately.
The MATCOR Driving Cone Anode can be installed vertically or horizontally into the side of a sloped bank. The soil must be soft enough to drive the anode. For compact soil, pre-drilling a 1-inch diameter hole may be required. The anode is driven by placing the driving tool over the anode. The integrated alignment device at the top of the anode keeps the driving tool in line.The impressed current anodes are driven into the ground with a pneumatic hammer or pushing equipment such as a drill rig. To reach desired depths, additional MATCOR driving tools are connected. Once the desired depth is reached the tool is extracted from the ground.
