The PF™-Anode is a long-life, flexible impressed current anode engineered for cathodic protection in water tanks, wells, and aqueous environments. Featuring a mixed metal oxide (MMO) anode encased in chlorine-resistant Kynar® braiding, it delivers durable, shorts-guarded corrosion control—even in harsh icing conditions.
Designed for water tanks, water wells, enclosed vessels, floating ring systems, external protection in wet environments, and propulsion tunnels and can be designed with cable exiting both ends, integrated reference electrodes, and additional braided Kynar rope on either end. The PF-Anode is also outfitted with Kynar braiding that stretches under icing conditions without damaging the internal anode, cable, or connections.
When ordering, specify the required current output per foot, overall length, design life, length of braided rope required on the ends, and lead cable length exiting the housing. Consultations and custom designs are available through MATCOR engineering.
The PF-Anode is installed in vertical tanks by hanging the assembly from a ceiling clevis using the reinforced Kynar braided rope. It’s pre-built to length so no assembly is required onsite and can be mounted horizontally in vessels, containers, or propulsion tunnels.
