EMCS Industries Ltd MARELCO Electrolytic Anode System for anti fouling and anti corrosion in vessels and ships. The system works by using a Control Panel that impresses DC current through antifouling anodes, this results in very small concentrations of dissolved ions flowing through the cooling system preventing sea life attaching itself to exposed areas.
An electrolytic antifouling system dissolves Copper, Aluminium and/or Iron Anodes in the seawater system. The Anode dissolution prevents settlement of organisms and the development of biofouling. Without the MARELCO™ technology being present blockages to pipes and pumps, fire fighting equipment, reduced flow rates and accelerated corrosion would result. This can lead to loss of Vessel speed and overheating.
