Prevent damage, keep interference voltage under control

Pipelines often run alongside high-voltage lines or railway lines. If they run parallel, interference voltages can have a negative effect on pipelines causing wear and tear and thus corrosion damage.

Protect people

Interference voltages often lead to high touch voltages. These dangerous overvoltages present an enormous risk to people areas which are freely accessible and during maintenance work. The resulting injuries can be severe or even life-threatening. Don't let it come to this.

Passive corrosion protection

Passive corrosion protection, i.e. painting or coating the pipeline, is the first step. However, this alone does not suffice as even small imperfections in the coating soon lead to local corrosion on the pipeline. A far greater degree of safety is achieved with active corrosion protection.

Active corrosion protection

In the case of active corrosion protection, a protective current (direct current) prevents current from escaping in places where the coating or sheathing is flawed. This cathodic corrosion protection is the most effective method of permanently arresting electrochemical corrosion processes.
