Special Purpose Marine & Offshore Anodes
BSS Technologies manufactures advanced retrofit, monitoring, and subsea CP solutions. We engineer specialized complex offshore infrastructure and wind farm foundations.
Specialized Subsea Protection
Managing deepwater and coastal assets requires highly specialized engineering. We manufacture dedicated monitoring anodes, retrofit pods, heavy concrete sleds, and custom turbine anodes built specifically to extend the operational life of existing offshore structures.
These advanced systems allow field engineers to revamp depleted protection networks, defend offshore wind monopiles, and track active consumption rates. This approach delivers vital structural upgrades without the need to undertake difficult underwater construction.
Special Purpose Anodes
We engineer specialized anode assemblies to upgrade and track complex offshore infrastructure.
Monitoring Anode Systems
BSS Tech Monitoring anode systems reliably confirm the performance and consumption of sacrificial anodes. A standard unit features a sampled anode installed with an isolation joint and wired to a monitoring panel. This setup measures current output and remaining life without interference, generating general trends for the entire cathodic protection (CP) system to help predict overall system life.
Measures anode consumption and individual current output without interference.
Uses an isolation joint to separate the sampled anode from the main structure.
Applies to all galvanic types, including platform, flush-mount, and pipeline bracelet anodes.
Helps engineers evaluate both specific system designs and general methodologies.
Uses Zn or Ag/AgCl reference cells to measure structure potential.
Available with total remote monitoring and switching capabilities.
Galvallopod (Retrofit Anodes)
The Galvallopod provides a rapid upgrade path for offshore structures experiencing depleted original protection. We mount multiple galvanic aluminum or zinc anodes onto a single steel pod, which marine cranes then lower directly onto the seabed.
Upgrades depleted offshore cathodic protection.
Multiple galvanic anodes mounted on a single pod.
Lowers directly to the seabed using a marine crane.
Eliminates difficult underwater diver interventions.
Heavy Duty Anode Sleds
Engineered specifically for submerged pipelines and large offshore structural revamps. We construct these heavy concrete sleds using high-capacity galvanic elements or Mixed Metal Oxide (MMO) anodes to deliver the extremely high current outputs required for major facility upgrades.
Protects submerged pipelines and structural jackets.
Heavy concrete base delivers permanent seabed stability.
Available with galvanic or impressed current MMO anodes.
Supplied with preconfigured heavy duty lifting points.
AquaDisc™ MMO Anode
Engineered specifically for localized offshore wind turbine and monopile protection. These unique disc-shaped MMO titanium plates are housed inside tough non-metallic castings. They bolt directly onto external flanged nozzles, routing tail cables securely to junction boxes to deliver highly targeted impressed current for complex structural nodes.
Titanium base with mixed metal oxide coating.
Delivers 40 Amps minimum output in seawater.
Features a 400mm diameter MMO coated plate.
Housed securely inside non metallic castings.
Outstanding 100 year operational design life.
Pyramid Anode
The Pyramid Anode utilizes a four-vaned MMO coated titanium substrate mounted securely on a high-density waterproof concrete base. This specialized engineering geometry provides negative buoyancy, delivering permanent seabed stability for well casings, sheet piling, and jetty piles.
Features an MMO coated titanium base axle and vanes.
High density concrete delivers permanent negative buoyancy.
Delivers a standard high current output of 150 Amps.
Provides a minimum operational design life of 25 years.
ICCP Hull & Probe Anodes
For specific marine and vessel requirements, we supply specialized configurations designed for direct structural integration. Our ICCP and probe anodes deliver targeted internal and external protection for ship hulls and process tanks.
Advanced probe anodes to fit in to specialized structural parts.
Flush-mounted hull designs provide active vessel defense.
Available in MMO coated titanium or platinized titanium and niobium options.
Bracelet Anodes
For specific offshore and pipeline requirements, we supply specialized configurations designed for direct structural integration. Our bracelet anodes clamp securely around subsea pipelines to deliver targeted external structure protection.
Specialized bracelet designs clamp around subsea lines.
Half-shell configurations ensure secure pipeline fitting.
Manufactured in custom aluminium and zinc alloy castings.
Available with specialized welded and bolted attachments.
