Niles Steel Tank: Anode System

Company: Niles Steel Tank (NST), a subsidiary of Bradford White Corp.

Description: This powered anode system is designed for large-volume epoxy and glass-lined storage tanks. The non-consumable titanium anodes provide a controlled release of electrons that negatively charge the steel tank and its components, preventing corrosion (rusting) from occurring. Cathode protection, whether provided by a powered or sacrificial anode, is one of the most important systems in the tank and must be properly maintained. In areas with poor water quality, NST recommends inspecting and replacing consumable anodes twice a year. In addition to the expense of pulling the system offline, there is considerable down time and disruption of service to the building. All of this can be eliminated by installing the Niles Steel Tank (NST) non-consumable-powered anode system. The maintenance-free system eliminates disruption of service, maintenance costs, and “rotten egg” smell for the lifetime of the system.
