Noble Metal Oxide Coating
Whether operating in soil, fresh water, seawater or mud, mixed metal oxide coatings demonstrate high chemical stability, even in environments with a low pH value. Based upon accelerated life testing, conducted by an independent laboratory, our MMO coating has been proven to have an increased life expectancy when compared with other similar products on the market. Differing coating thickness and different noble metal oxide ratios are available on request.
◉ Ir–Ta Mixed Metal Oxide Catalyst
The iridium-tantalum mixed metal oxide catalyst is recommended for use in soil or fresh water, where there is either no
chloride ions or low chloride ions present.

* We can produce anodes with different nobel metal oxide ratios and differing coating thickness as specific required.
Low Electrical Resistance
The MMO anode has an extremely low consumption rate, measured in milligrams per ampere-year. The dimensions remain nearly unchanged throughout the design life of the anode, providing a consistently low resistance.
Low Maintenance Cost
MMO tubular anodes are a high performance anode specifically designed for harsh environments and areas where conventional installations and replacements would be economically or logistically restricted. When compared to other anode types, it can save up to 15%-35% of installation costs.
Wide Cable Selection
PVDF, HMWPE, HALAR, XLPE, PVC or KYNAR are all optional. We recommend dual-insulated cable(such as PVDF/HMWPE) for use in ground beds with high chloride concentration. While HMWPE is an economical choice for shallow vertical and horizontal surface beds with no chloride presence.
