Early detection is the difference between scheduled maintenance and a catastrophic failure caused by accelerated corrosion. In corridors where electrical infrastructure and fluid-transport pipelines converge, electromagnetic interference (EMI) diagnostics must be rigorous and systematic. Many engineers rely solely on cathodic protection potential readings, overlooking the fact that alternating current (AC) interference can damage pipelines and […]
In the cathodic protection industry, the accuracy and continuity of ON/OFF cycles are critical to ensure reliable assessments of asset integrity status.. However, in many inspection campaigns, circuit breaker failures lead to outages, economic losses and compromise the quality of the data obtained.. These failures, although often underestimated, can have a significant impact on operational […]
Corrosion is a silent enemy that can compromise the integrity of metallic structures and generate substantial economic losses. Cathodic protection systems are an effective solution to combat this problem, with current interrupters playing a key role in performance evaluation. What is a cathodic protection current Interrupter, and why is it important? A cathodic protection current […]
Cathodic protection is a critical component in the prevention of corrosion in industrial infrastructure. With the constant advancement of technology and best practices, it is essential for engineers, managers and consultants to stay current on the latest trends in this field. In this article, we will explore five current trends in cathodic protection that are […]
In the field of integrity engineering and cathodic protection, making strategic decisions based on accurate data is essential to prevent failures in critical infrastructure such as pipelines, industrial plants, and storage systems. But how can you ensure your strategies are truly effective? Asset optimization relies not only on experience but also on advanced tools that […]
Cathodic protection is a proven method for extending the service life of metallic infrastructures in corrosive environments. While the CP system is essential for protection, the current interrupter is a key inspection tool used to accurately evaluate and verify system performance. This article provides detailed technical guidance on how to select the ideal current interrupter, […]
Advanced current interrupter technology is transforming the way cathodic protection (CP) inspections are performed on pipelines, storage tanks, and other critical assets. The use of an advanced current interrupter not only improves inspection accuracy, but also enhances system reliability and ensures compliance with international standards. What is a Current Interrupter for CP Inspections? A current […]
Sacrificial anodes are elements that are installed in pipes or tanks so that the whole system is free of corrosion, when they are implemented they displace all the corrosion towards them and thus protect the metal. In order to generate this effect, the materials to be used must be pure, such as zinc, magnesium or […]
Cathodic protection is a method to prevent corrosion in buried and submerged metallic structures. It allows extending the life of the structures, obtaining both high benefits to the safety and reliability of the installations, as well as significant reduction of total costs during the life of the assets. It is commonly used to protect numerous […]
