Anode-Tech produce a range
of rain water anode kits that suit all "Modular" and "Round" domestic
tanks of all sizes. A range of suspended style anodes
suit large size squatter and rural tanks containing either rain or ground water.Water
type must be nominated
when ordering as different anodes are required
for ground/bore /river water

 |
"Suspended Anode” for
large squatter and rural water tanks |
|
Each kit comprises either a 21mm, 27mm, 33mm or 65mm diameter
Magnesium sacrificial anode, suspending copper cable,
tank roof fastener, tek screws, nut setter and installation and
maintenance instructions.
PLEASE NOTE: Some kits contain
dual anodes. A single anode kit may be substituted but will require
more frequent replacement.
SPECIFICATIONS |
Anode Material: Designated rain water M1
high potential extruded magnesium rod to AS2239-2003.
or Designated
ground water M2 low potential
extruded magnesium rod to AS2239-2003.
Cable: P.V.C. coated 7/1.04 copper cable of appropriate length
with attaching eye.
Roof Fasteners: Hot dipped zinc, steel plate
pre-drilled to take fasteners provided and provision for cable
attachment.
Instructions: Detailed assembly and installation instructions are
provided with each kit.
GENERAL
Anode Life: The life of the anode will vary through differing factors
such as water quality, internal tank wall area to be covered and
the condition of the internal walls. For example the anode will
be required
to work harder to protect an older degraded surface than for a
new zinc or galv. plated surface. A reasonable expectation in a
new tank
would
be 10-15 years.
Replacement: It is recommended your anode be inspected on an annual
basis and should be replaced when more than 50% of its central
wire core
is exposed through corrosion.
Application:
“TankGuard” anodes are recommended for
use in both new and existing water tank applications.
When used in new water tanks the anode acts as a backup defence
against corrosion with the primary barrier being the galvanised
surface of
the tank.
When used in "older" tanks, the anode will progressively take over the
job of protecting the internal surface from corrosion as the original
galvanised surface deteriorates.
NOTE:
“TankGuard”
internal anodes installed as directed do not
protect the external tank surfaces. A bagged anode is
required in this situation.
SAFETY
"TankGuard"
anodes
conform to Australian Standard AS2239.
This
standard advises that the by-products of
magnesium anodes commonly used in “potable water applications” are non-toxic.
