INTRODUCTION

The System is a patented method developed specifically for :-

1. The Control of marine growth in sea water systems.

2. The reduction of corrosion of metal in contact with water.

It is difficult to generalize on the economics, but it is normally no exaggeration to say that annual
savings, taking into consideration out of service time, are sufficient to cover the capital cost of the
System in two years or less.

Each installation is designed for its particular task and should therefore not be regarded as just
another mass produced gadget which will cure all ills with no further attention. Very little
supervision is necessary, but we do ask for your cooperation in following the simple instructions
contained in this manual

The System, using our special anodes controls both marine growth infestation and corrosion - the
former being virtually eliminated, while the latter will be reduced to a fraction of that normally to
be expected.

The System is designed to give continuous and trouble free protection against marine growth and
corrosion with the minimum maintenance. It will only operate for the full planned anode life and
give complete protection, however, if the anode currents are maintained at the correct settings.

Excessive anode current will result in an excessive rate of consumption of the anodes, thus
reducing their life and possibly leaving the water system unprotected if the anode is prematurely
consumed.

Insufficient anode current will result in fouling of the water system.

Incorrect current setting either way can result in expensive cleaning operations which should not be
necessary if the System is operated correctly at all times.

ANODE OPERATION

There are two types known as the Marine Growth (CU) anodes and Trap Corrosion (AL) anodes.

CU Anodes are manufactured from copper as major part for system. They release ions during
electrolysis which combine with these released from the sea water to form an environment which
discourages spat and any other minute organisms entering, and adhering in some area where they
grow and start breeding. They are, instead, carried straight through to discharge and provided that
no untreated water is allowed to enter at some point subsequent to the anodes, freedom from
infestation is assured.

AL Anodes are manufactured from aluminium as supplementary part for use in a system with
predominantly steel pipes where the reaction of the aluminium anode with seawater results in the
formation of aluminium hydroxide. This disperses down the pipework positively charged,
forming anti-corrosive barrier on the pipework which takes an insulation role preventing marine
fouling from rooting and growing there.

INSTRUCTION FOR CONTROL PANEL

(KCAF TYPE)

MODULES

The panel contains module(s) according to the quantity of anode. These modules require no
maintenance. Each module controls one pair of anodes or each anode via front mounted
amperage selector knobs. The current level for each anode is shown on the digital display above
each selector knob. Below each digital display unit there is a red led alarm indicator, which will
illuminate if module(s) has failure causing either zero current or over current output.

FIXING

Two mounting bars with four holes for M10 are incorporated on the back plate of the panel.
We recommend a bulkhead mounting in close proximity to the anodes to avoid voltage drop and
cutting cable run costs.

MAIN POWER SUPPLY CABLE

Run cable from available power source .... via gland to terminal marked 'Mains In'.
Be sure to connect correct cable to terminal.

SETTING UP

Once the cables have been run and connected, the System is ready to be switched on.
NOTE - the following procedure can only be carried out with the anodes in seawater.

1. Turn up the switch at the left-low side of control panel.

A green neon on the right of switch will light up to confirm power on.

2. Set all anode currents by turning the knobs unless the readings of digital display correspond
to each current specified in Operation Manual.

3. Switch off until ship’s engine starts and switch on when seawater pumps are running.

INSTRUCTION FOR FITTING ANODES

(JIS 5K-150A FLANGE WITH PIPE UPSTAND TYPE)

Before works, make sure anode overhaul height by the length of anode & mounting sleeve over the
sea chest / strainer top.

1. Pipe upstand (150A #80) to be supplied and fitted by client. Pipe to have minimum bore of
130mm inside after coating or lining to ensure clearance of anode mounting assembly.
Flange to be JIS 5K-150A.

If K.C. Ltd. have supplied drawings for specific system.

Burn a hole in the sea chest / strainer top plate to suit outside diameter of pipe in position
stated on drawing.

If K.C. Ltd. have not supplied drawings.

Determine the position of the pipe upstand and burn a hole in the top plate of the sea chest to
suit pipe outside diameter. The anodes must be positioned between the sea water inlet grid
and suction pipes in the sea chest in case anode are installed in sea chest.
Recommended minimum dimensions for anode positioning 300mm between anode center and
anode center and 120mm between anode center and the nearest steelwork.

Weld pipe upstand in position, ensuring:-

1.1 Pipe is welded to the sea chest / strainer top plate on both top and bottom surfaces.

1.2 Flange top surfaces must be horizontal unless otherwise stated.

1.3 We recommend that any special paint or coating applied to the sea chest is also applied to the
pipe upstand.

2. Bolt flange mounting complete with anode to mating flange on pipe upstand.
Remember to fit gasket between flanges and ensure no mechanical load is applied to cable.

WIRING OF SYSTEM

Client to supply all cables and connection boxes between :-

1. Power isolation switch and control panel.

2. Control panel and anodes including earth return leads.

Minimum Recommended Cable Specification

Marine rubber double insulated. Use one core per anode and one core per earth return.
The minimum core size for all cable is as follows : -

0 - 25 metre cable run Use 2.5 sq mm core.

25 - 50 metre cable run Use 4.0 sq mm core.
50 - 100 metre cable run Use 6.0 sq mm core.

Each anode is assembled with different cable color for easy identification as follows;

CU (Copper) Anode cable - Red

AL (Aluminium) Anode Cable - Blue

 K.C. LTD. MGPS DOCUMENT
REV(B) : 20/10/03

WIRING UP

An earth (-ve) return must be installed at each separate anode location i.e. if the system supplied is
designed for 2 sea chests/strainers then 2 earth returns must be used. Use a min of 1 earth return for
every 4 Anodes. Ensure that a separate core of a multicore cable or a completely separate cable is
used for this purpose. Use cable as specified above. Connect to the terminals available in the
rear of the control unit marked 'earth returns'.
We suggest the cable connections are made by welding a bolt on to the strainer or sea chest close to
the anodes (but no nearer than 250mm).
Fit junction box close to anodes and wire to control panel using recommended cable as per
attached wiring diagram and control box drawing.

After switching on, check the polarity of the anodes in relation to the hull.
All anodes are to be positive, relative to a negative hull.

TROUBLESHOOTING

NO LIGHTS ON AT ALL
1. Check mains fuse in the front of the control panel(above on - off switch).
2. Check circuit breaker in distribution box.
3. Check if anodes are immersed in the sea water.

ANY ONE DIGITAL DISPLAY WILL NOT SHOW A READING

1. Check anode fuse inside the module.
2. Check if any cable has been severed.
3. Check anode lead joint.
4. Check if inside sea chest/strainer is filled with air.
5. Change over any two modules to check if fault is in module or rest of system.

ALARM LED LIGHTS UP

1. Check if digital display is showing zero or max current.
2. If digital display is not showing a reading but led is light, module is fault.
And then return K.C. LTD. for repair.

IN-SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

DESCRIPTION

Once the System has been installed it will perform two functions : -

1. Eliminate marine growth and reduce the corrosion rate in the seawater service lines.

2. The System uses impressed current sacrificial anodes which last to designed life.
Once in service the anodes will require renewal within designed life.
Refer to instruction of anode renewal as specified separately.
Please ensure a reasonable dispatch time when ordering replacement anodes.

You will require the following : -

ANODE PART No. Q’TY ANODE LOCATION

CU (Copper) KBCU 780 2

STRAINER
AL (Aluminium) KBAL 780 2

When ordering, inform of maker's reference number specified on the cover sheet of this drawing.

ADJUSTMENTS
The control panel is fully automatic and therefore does not require any adjustments in service.

CHECKING
We suggest that as a matter of course the Control Panel should be checked every week.

When checking, see that all the digital display ammeters are working, this will determine all is
correct. When the anodes have nearly wasted, the digital display above the corresponding anode
will start to fall. When this happens, turn the anode current knob back to zero and leave it until
the anode renewal.
Reset once again at sea after renewal to current settings given previously.

WARNING (In case anodes are installed in strainer)

When opening the strainer lid for regular check inside strainer, do not fail to remove all anodes
mounted onto the lid. Lifting up strainer lid without anodes removal and lifting it down gives
serious stress to stud and results in anode breakage.

IN-SERVICE ADJUSTMENT AND CURRENT SETTINGS

The effective working of the system can only be determined by inspection and it is suggested that
if after some 6 months of operation the opportunity to examine a strainer, length of pipe or heat
exchanger, presents itself, this should be done.

In the event of there being signs of infestation, the current to each anode in this section should be
increased by a maximum of 0.4 amps, but if no fouling is present the current to each anode within
this section may be reduced by a maximum of 0.2 amps.

This routine can be repeated at intervals, the current being adjusted accordingly.

NOTE : The higher the current setting the shorter the anode life.
The lower the current setting the greater the anode life.

ANODE POSITION : STRAINER

ANODE REF CURRENT SETTINGS

PORT
CU 1 1.8 Amps
AL 1 2.0 Amps

STB’D
CU 2 1.8 Amps
AL 2 2.0 Amps

NOTE : Turn the current setting down to 0.4 Amp for the strainer not in use but be sure to
return to operating current as above when the strainer comes in use.

CAUTION

Customers are recommended for the purchase of genuine parts from us.
Imitated parts make the system get fatally damaged.
