GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1. INTRODUCTION
Marine organisms enter the sea water circulation systems usually aS \arvee and
spats, and settle and fully grow in the ideal ship environment - namely lower water
flow rates, adequate supplies of nutrients, oxygen and higher temperatures.
If not combated, these marine fouling can result in partial or complete blockage of
pipeworks and restrict or completely prevent of use of the water systems.
Traditionally chlorination has been used to remove marine growth in sea water
systems, by the addition of chlotine/hypochlorite or by electrochlorination. However
these methods have not been suitable economic alternatives of providing
antifouling and are always afraid to increase corrosion.
CorrsTech Anti-Fouling System based on electrolytic cooper and aluminium or iron
dosage now provides a more reliable, economical and technically and
environmentally acceptable alternative,
1.2 ANTIF-FOULING SYSTEM
The system consists essentially of a power control unit, anti-fouling anode(s) and
anti-corrosion anode(s). The power control unit is usually installed in a place where it
can be easily accessed by ship staff, in ship's engine room and the anodes in each
sea chest of injection strainer or any
fermediate suitable reaction tank. The sea
water system downstream from the anodes will receive protection. A general
arrangement of the complete system is shown in Drawing No. AM 1164
Anode functions are as follows :
Cu - Anode Antifouling
Al Anode : Reduction in Corrosion of Steel Surfaces
Fe- Anode : Reduction in Corrasian of Non-Ferrous Surfaces
as Anti-Fouling and Corrosion Mitigation is achieved by dissolving anodes by the
application of a controlled D.C. current to the anodes in the sea water circulation
system.
D.C. current applied to the copper anode releases a controlled quantity cf copper ions
into the sea water circuits to create an environment in which primary forms of marine
life cannot settle and develope. The actual concentration of copper ions is extremely
small and measured in micrograms per litre of sea water.
Current applied to the aluminium anode releases an aluminium hydroxide ‘tioc’ of
colloidal properties, The aluminium oxidetion products reduce corrosion rates in the
sea water system of ferrous components by modifying the ferrous oxides formed and
boy film deposition. Similarly, iron anodes are utilised for reducing corrosion rates of
non-ferrous components. 2.
MATERIALS AND EQUIPMENT
2.1 Power Control Unit
The Power Control Unit is of modular construction with A.C. input and D.C. output
via individual modules as illustrated by Drawing No. AM 1158,
Each unit is made up of 1 - 4 separate modules, which are interchangeable. The
module has two separate positive outputs each of capacity 2 or 3 Amps (4 or 6
Amps total).
One Module 2 Positive Outputs 2 Way Unit
Two Modules 4 Positive Outputs 4. Way Unit
Three Modules —_—_6 Positive Outputs 6 Way Unit
Four Modules 8 Positive Outputs 8 Way Unit
A common negative exists for all modules.
A separate earthing connection should be provided on sea chests or injection
straines cover where the anodes are installed; if not already provided on the anode
coffetdam_unit.
OPTION : Facility to operate at reduced | increased output for variable low / high
flow rates
22 Electric Cable
(2) input
AC. input cable and fittings - terminations, glands, grommets and shrouds, etc., are
usually of shipyard supply. The A.C. supply cable size is rated according to the
maximum D.C. output of the power unit. Usually, a very small conductor size is
adequate but for physical and electrical reasons, it is preferable to use a larger cable
conductor size than the nominal cucrent capacity needed. Cable insulation, armoring
and sleeving is dictated by ship classification requirements. Input supply may de
440/380V 3 phase 60Hz; 220)240V single phase or 110V single phase. A 2.5 Amp input fuse is provided.
Input cable size of minimum cross-section 25 sq. mm per conductor is
recommended.
e.g. 3 x 2.5 sq. mm PVC/PVC/SWA/PVC
NOTE : Non Armoured cable can be used on runs in trays or conduits
(&) D.c. Output
The D.C. output from each module is connected to the anodes (positive output) and
sea chests or injection strainer covers respectively (negative output) via an
intermediate junction box.
Single core x 5.5 sq, mm cable is supplied for D.C. distribution to the anodes from
the junction box without any significant voltage drop.
Systems normally utilize 3 core cable per module output; two positive to Cu anode
and Al anode respectively and one negative to the sea chest (see Drawing No, AM
1164), between the power unit and the junction box. for this section of cabling an
armoured cable_is_preferable_(e.g._ EPR/CSP/GSW/CSP);—unless—cable—tray—or
conduit is used for distribution where cable with insulation and sleeving alone can
be adequate. This can be EPR/CSP or XLPEJPVC. Cable voltage rating is not
significant since units operate well below 15 volts D.C., the maximum output of the
power unit. Most cables have voltage ratings above 200 volts.
(c) Earthing
An insulated earthing cable minimum 1 x 5.5 mm? should be connected from the
power earth connection on the power unit housing to a suitable external earth
point.
2.3. Junction Box
CorrsTech supply standard junction boxes rated to IP65, (typical construction is shown in Drawing No. AM 1178), with input 3 x 5.5 mm? and 3 separate outputs to
Cu anode, Al anode and: sea chest or injection strainer respectively.
An intermediate junction box facilitates separation of anodes from the supply, thus
avoiding interference with the remainder of the installation - during inspection or
anode replacement periods and is necessary where anode assemblies are provided
as a separate unit complete with pre-connected cable.
2.4 Alloy Anodes
A typical anode arrangement, complete with cofferdam and mounting flange is
shown in Drawing No. AM 1174.
The_anode assembly can be separated from the cotferdamsflange;the latter_being
welded in-situ in the sea chest or injection strainer cover. The same type of
assembly construction is used for Cu, Al and Fe anodes.
The constituent components of the anode assembly construction are detailed in
Drawing No. AM 1174,
Anode sizes are designed according to a seawater flow rate and a dry docking or
anode replacement period,
Variations in Diameter, Length or Shape of anode can be provided depending on
(a) the space available to install anode assemblies,
(b) the period of use prior to dissolution and replacement. (For sea chest locations,
the replacement period is generally the dry docking interval.) 3.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 Power Control Unit
The control panel should be located. as near as possible to A.C. power supply and
the anode locations (to minimise the D.C, cable length and voltage drop.)
The control panel location should meet the following requirements:
(a) Max. ambient temperature of $0 deg. C. (Unit rated to 55 deg. C.)
{b)-Adequate-space_around_unit to assist ventilation
(c) Approx. head height max to facilitate reading and output adjustment or servicing
(a) be easily accessible
(e) be in a safe non-hazardous environment
(f) bulkhead mounted andjor secured to suitable base
3.2. Connecting Cables / Junction Boxes
Input A.C, cable connection points and earthing cable connections are clearly marked
in the power control unit. See Drawing No. AM 1062.
Similarly positive output terminals on each module are evident with a common
negative cable connection, Cable sizing and specification for A.C. input and D.C.
output are described in Section 2.1.2.
The D.C. supply cable to the anodes should be connected to the intermediate
junction box.
A junction box is provided with cable glands for D.C. input and anode | earthing
output connections, see Drawing No. AM 1164.
‘Anode cables and negalive return should be connected to the D.C. supply in the
junction box. 3.3. Anode | Cotferdam | Flange
Anodes should be installed in the position specifically shown or advised for each
vessel.
The anodes are installed in the selected compartments, namely sea chests, or
injection strainers.
(a) The agreed positions for the apertures for the cofferdam entry points should be
marked and burncut out; taking precautions to protect surrounding
equipment with heat resistant blankets etc. A stand-by fire extinguisher should
be provided.
(b) The mating flange to receive the anode and cofferdam flange should be welded
in position - welding on both inside and outside joints.
(c) A 6 mm % 20 mm hexagon screw can be welded onto the mating flange to
provide a negative connection point as shown in Drawing No. AM 1170 or
welded on any other location directly in metallic contact with the sea chest to
obtain a zero resistance connection (if not already provided).
(a) All weld scale should be removed and any damaged paintwork reinstated,
(e) Carefully lift the anode | cofferdam | flange assembly by means of the eye boits
provided and lower the anode onto the sea chest or strainer mating flange,
making sure that the rubber gasket is in position. Evenly tighten down the anode
flange bolts.
(THE PROCESS IS REPEATED FOR ALL ANODES)
() Make the negative cable connection onto the welded flange. After making
this connection, the stud and nut assembly should be completely covered with
light coating of corrosion protection grease.
(g) Secure anode cables and negative single cable together and take back for connection in the junction box.
NOTE : Painting colour of cofferdam flange
Blue : Cu Anode
White : Al Anode
Black - Fe Anode
{h) When vessel is afloat, carry out leakage tests by checking for ingress of water
into the cofferdam. i
4. COMMISSIONING
(ONLY TO BE CARRIED OUT WHEN THE VESSEL IS AFLOAT)
Check all cable connections at power control unit, junction boxes and anodes.
Identify each positive output and releyant anode and ensure that all anode output
adjustment knobs are in the zero position.
Switch on AC. supply and then the panel on/off switch. Adjust output to the
recommended current values on each anode.
Anode Current
The digital readout display for each anode is indicated in 0.01 amp steps trom 0.0 to
2.0 or 3.0 amps. The current show is the actual current supplied from the module
In cases where the anode resistance is high (worn anodes or vessel in fresh water)
the indicated current may be less than the set current,
Alarms
The following-abnormal-conditions of anodes are indicated by illumination of red alarm
LED on the relevant anode module :
- Anode life span is completed or anode is consumed
No output
‘And also when power fails the power fail alarm relay attached in the panel would
operate.
Alarms are non latching and will clear when the alarm condition has ceased to exist
10 yO
MAINTENANCE
The maintenance requirement is minimal. The system operates at constant current
output and does not therefore require adjustment.
A weekly recording of current output on each anode is recommended. This provides a
record of the system’s operation, an. indication of any changes in tunction, and a
Feminder when anode replacements are scheduled.
A complete loss of current on any anode should be investigated by checking all cabte
connections, power panel fuse of by interchanging modules,
Anode Replacement
Anode rods can be replaced during vessel's drydocking or with closing the sea water
valves for strainers in where anodes are installed (See Orawing No. AM 1174)
