Description
The ClydeUnion S&N Pumps SNSAFE System offers the most comprehensive bio-fouling prevention solutions package in the market. Strategic implementation of our systems increases the service life.
- Delivers an impressed DC current from a power converting control panel to strategically placed copper anodes in the seawater system
- The passage of the DC current through the copper anode releases copper ions into the seawater flow at a predetermined rate
- The copper ions deter the entry and growth of fouling organisms
EFFECTS OF BIO-FOULING
- Creates a thermal barrier around a pump motor and reduces the amount of heat that can be dissipated
- Accelerates corrosion by impingement/erosion, pitting and cavitation
- Reduces fluid flow throughout the piping of the vessel/rig
- Restricts and/or creates turbulent fluid flow at pump intakes
Principle of Operation
- Anode cage assembly attaches to the motor housing of an electric submersible pump or the suction of of a vertical turbine pump
- The power supply and earth return cables run from the submersed anode to the topside mounted control panel
- Submerged under water in the caisson
Advantages
- Eliminates bio-fouling macro-organisms
- Low initial cost
- Replaceable anodes
- Minimal maintenance
- Pre-calculated anode life
- Environmentally safe
- Low operating cost
- Minimal space requirement
