Aluminium Heat Treater Anodes
Aluminium heat treater anodes are sacrificial anodes suitable for installation in heat treaters, pressure vessels and other production vessels.
They provide a compact solution, are easy to replace and ideal for cathodic protection in relatively higher temperature and lower chloride saltwater environments. The most common types are cylindrical and spherical.
