Zinc Anode 620 Datasheet

: Meets British standard BS 4652 and performance requirements for BS 5493 .

The "620" model features a steel core insert (often hot-dipped galvanized or zinc-coated). The allows for secure bolting directly to the metal surface requiring protection. Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of paint or debris to maintain electrical continuity.

notes that aluminum is becoming more popular, Zinc 620 remains the gold standard for pure saltwater for several reasons: Reliability:

Do not apply anti-fouling paint, primer, or topcoats to the surface of the zinc anode. Painting isolates the zinc from the seawater, preventing the electrochemical reaction entirely. Replacement Schedule zinc anode 620 datasheet

Approximately 24.8 lbs (11.2 kg) per Ampere-year. Efficiency: based on theoretical zinc dissolution rates. 5. Primary Applications

The is a high-performance, two-part epoxy zinc-rich primer specifically engineered to provide superior cathodic protection for steel structures in highly corrosive environments. Often categorized by the keyword "zinc anode 620," this product functions as a "sacrificial" coating, protecting the underlying steel from rust even if the film is damaged.

This is a two-pack, high-solids, epoxy zinc-rich primer designed to provide superior corrosion protection to steel in aggressive environments like offshore platforms and petrochemical plants. : Meets British standard BS 4652 and performance

The contact resistance between the anode core and the protected structure must be less than 0.01 Ohms.

The 620 anode works via . It possesses a lower (more negative) electrochemical potential than the steel it protects.

If an anode looks brand new after six months in salt water, it is likely not working due to poor electrical contact. Environmental Suitability Salt Water: Excellent (Zinc is the industry standard). Ensure the mounting surface is clean and free

The electrochemical profile defines how effectively the anode drives current to protect the target structure and how fast it consumes itself.

Choose zinc ONLY for saltwater/brackish water. Do not use zinc in low-temperature fresh water or in high-sulfide muds.

Below is a comprehensive technical breakdown of the specifications, applications, and installation guidelines for a standard 620-series zinc anode. ⚓ Zinc Anode 620 Technical Specifications

The term "620" typically denotes a weighing approximately 6.2 kg (13.66 lbs) or measuring roughly 620 mm in length depending on the manufacturer's code. However, the industry standard for the “620” profile most commonly refers to a trapezoidal or rectangular bar anode used predominantly on ship hulls, heat exchangers, and water box applications.
