Once correctly connected and immersed, the sacrificial alloy is consumed in preference to electrically connected underwater metals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe anode must have a reliable electrical connection to the protected system. Simply lowering it into the water without connecting the cable to the correct bonding point will not provide the intended cathodic protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuspended anodes are normally used as supplementary protection or where a vessel's approved cathodic-protection arrangement specifically calls for an over-side anode. They should not automatically be treated as a replacement for correctly sized fixed hull, shaft, propeller, rudder or drive anodes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tecnoseal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct category:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suspended \/ hanging sacrificial marine anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer part numbers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 00630, 00631 and 00632\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable alloys:\u003c\/strong\u003e Zinc, aluminium and magnesium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCable length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6 metres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Suspended in the water and electrically connected by cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e Appropriately bonded hull, shaft, propeller, rudder and other underwater metal systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoat type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Various\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCasting profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tapered cylindrical anode\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Made in Italy by Tecnoseal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupply:\u003c\/strong\u003e Selected anode with 6-metre cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot specified by Tecnoseal:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cable-terminal size or separate connection hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAvailable Models\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e00630 Zinc:\u003c\/strong\u003e 105mm high, Ø80mm outside diameter, Ø55mm top diameter and 2.550kg published weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e00631 Aluminium:\u003c\/strong\u003e 106mm high, Ø80mm outside diameter, Ø52mm top diameter and 0.780kg published weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e00632 Magnesium:\u003c\/strong\u003e 162mm high, Ø100mm outside diameter, Ø55mm top diameter and 1.440kg published weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant:\u003c\/strong\u003e The magnesium model is substantially taller and wider than the zinc and aluminium models.
