TELPRO TUBULAR ANODES DATA SHEET

Titanium Electrode Products Companies, TELPRO, are
manufacturers of mixed metal oxide anodes for cathodic
protection.
TELPRO Tubular Anodes are manufactured using
titanium, which meets ASTM B338 Grade 1 or Grade 2
standards, which has been coated with TELPRO Mixed
Metal Oxide coating.
TELPRO MMO coating consists of IrO2/Ta2O5 and is
suitable for use in all cathodic protection applications.
Because mixed metal oxide anodes have an extremely low
consumption rate, the titanium substrate remains constant
throughout the design life of the anode.

Based upon accelerated life testing, conducted by an

independent laboratory, TELPRO MMO coating has been
proven to be equivalent or superior to other mixed metal
oxide coatings which are currently being used; a copy of
this test report is available upon request.
Strict quality control procedures are followed throughout the entire coating process, to guarantee proper coating
adhesion and loading. Also, TELPRO products are tested using an X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer, to ensure
production of the highest quality product, which is fundamental in every step of the manufacturing process.

APPLICATIONS
EXTERNAL TANK BASES
Telpro Sawtooth Ribbon Anode provides greater

flexibility because the ribbons are laid on the concrete
surface in parallel lines with the separation between
ribbons adjusted to give the required per square meter
output. The maximum spacing between the anodes will
vary according to the concrete cover over the rebar, but
is usually up to 14" (350mm). The approach is price
competitive compared to using a mesh product,
especially where you have areas of increased steel
density where you simply put more ribbon together.

APPLICATIONS
STEEL FRAME BUILDINGS
TELPRO MMO coating applied to the titanium

substrate has been designed for use in all
cathodic protection applications. TELPRO
coating consists of IrO2/Ta2O5 and is suitable
for use in soils, freshwater, brackish water and
seawater. Because mixed metal oxide anodes
have an extremely low consumption rate, the

ensure production of the highest quality product, which is fundamental in every step of the manufacturing
process.
TELPRO MMO Oxide Activated Tubular Point Source Anodes can be self-gas venting or supplied with venting
holes, plastic end-caps and a PVC venting tube. These anodes can also be supplied with a spot welded titanium
conductor bar, typically manufactured of titanium ribbon, 0.25 (6.35mm) by 0.025 (.635mm), which can be
either coated or uncoated, and of a length appropriate to suit project requirements.
The current output of the anode is calculated by multiplying the anode surface area x design current density,
which typically can vary 110mA/m2 to 900mA/m2, subject to design factors such as gas venting, acidic attack on
concrete, life of system, etc. Normal Design Life for the point source anode is typically 50 plus years when
operating at an anode current density of 900mA/m2. Coating loading can be adjusted for any combination of
current output and design life. Lifetimes are nominal we can supply amps / life different to stated standards on
request. Working Environment: Evolution of O2, Cl2 or combination of both.
