Zinc Condenser Anode – 5 lb CZ-5 (TRC-5)

Stopping corrosion begins with selecting an appropriate protection material. On many marine type structures, this material is zinc. To address the demand for this protective material, Corrpro offers hull, ballast tank, and condenser zinc anodes for use on structures in brackish and salt water environments. The anodes are cast using 99.99% pure high-grade zinc, and the ASTM-B-418, Type I chemical composition standard. Through the addition of nominal percentages of aluminum and cadmium, Corrpro zinc anodes are resistant to the formation of zinc oxide around the anode surface, which restricts current flow and can shorten anode life. Their unique composition also allows for a current capacity of 354 amp-hr/lb, and an open circuit voltage of 1.05 with respect to an Ag/AgCl reference cell.

The CZ-5, also known as TRC-5, is a 5-pound zinc condenser anode designed for effective protection in moderately corrosive environments. Suited for grounding systems, tanks, and pipelines, it delivers reliable current output while maintaining manageable size and weight for field use.
