INTRODUCTION FOR M.G.P.S

The system is based on the electrolytic principle consisting of copper and aluminium anodes which
are fed with a fixed impressed electrical current from control panel.

The System is designed to give continuous protection with the minimum maintenance against
marine growth and corrosion caused by marine growth in seawater service line. It will provide
complete protection through the full designated anode life.

Excessive anode current will result in an excessive rate of consumption of the anodes, and then
reducing their life and possibly leaving the water system unprotected if the anodes are worn out.

SYSTEM PRINCIPLE

The system produces anti-fouling ion using specially alloyed anodes.

There are two types known as the CU(copper) anodes and AL(aluminium) anodes.

CU Anodes are manufactured from copper as major part for system. The copper anode produces
ions which are transported by the seawater and carried into the pipework system to prevent marine
growth.
They release ions during electrolysis as following reactions.

Anodic reaction Cu → Cu2+ + 2e

Cathodic reaction 2H2O + 2e → H2 + 2OH-

AL Anodes are manufactured from aluminium as supplementary part for system. The slow
dissolution of the aluminium anode produces ions which spread throughout the system and produce
an anti-corrosive layer on the internal surface of sea water cooling lines.
They release ions during electrolysis as following reactions.

Anodic reaction Al → Al3+ + 3e

Cathodic reaction 3H2O + 3e → 3/2H2 + 3OH-
Product of Al(OH)3 Al3+ + 3OH- → Al(OH)3

INSTRUCTION FOR CONTROL PANEL

(KCAF/NM TYPE)

DISPLAY

The panel contains digital display according to the quantity of anode. Current setting for each
anode can be easily adjusted by up-down button and is shown in the digital display.
The alarm lamp will be ‘ON’ when improper current to each anode is set and any failure of system
operation. This alarm can be connected to vessel’s alarm system externally.

FIXING

Two mounting bars with four holes for M10 are incorporated on the back plate of the panel.
We recommend a bulkhead mounting in close proximity to the anodes to avoid voltage drop and
cutting cable run costs.

MAIN POWER SUPPLY CABLE

Run cable from available power source .... via gland to terminal marked 'Mains In'.
Be sure to connect correct cable to terminal.

SETTING UP

Once the cables have been run and connected, the System is ready to be switched on.
NOTE - the following procedure can only be carried out with the anodes in seawater.

1. Switch on the main power.

2. Set all anodes currents by pressing the buttons unless the readings of digital display
correspond to each current specified in Operation Manual.

3. Switch off until ship starts engine(s) up and switch on when sea water pumps are running.

INSTRUCTION FOR FITTING ANODES

(JIS 5K-150A PAD FLANGE TYPE)

Before works, make sure anode overhaul height by the length of anodes & mounting sleeve over
the sea chest top. It is important that anodes are mounted in the vertical position unless otherwise
stated on the K.C. drawings for specific vessels.

JIS 5K-150A PAD MATING FLANGE

Drill and tap 8 holes M16 on 230 pitch circle diameter for 8 M16 studs x 65 long complete with
nuts.

FITTING
1. If K.C. Ltd have supplied drawings for your specific system.
Burn a hole in the strainer lid 180mm diameter in position stated on drawing.
Weld mating flange in position (weld on both sides) and fit 8 studs to mating flange.

2. If K.C. Ltd have not supplied drawings.

Determine the position of the anode mounting flange and burn hole in top plate of sea chest
180mm in diameter. The anodes must be positioned between the sea water inlet grid and
suction pipes in the sea chest in case anode are installed in sea chest.
Recommended minimum dimensions for anode positioning 300mm between anode center and
anode center and 140mm between anode center and nearest steelwork.

3. Weld mating flange in position on top of the sea chest (weld on both sides) and fit 8 studs to
mating flange.

4. Coat both mating flange to same specification as sea chest.

5. Bolt flange mounting complete with anode to mating flange.
Remember to fit gasket between flanges and ensure no mechanical load is applied to cable.

WARNING
It is required to have insulation test of anode after installation.
HOWEVER NEVER TEST WITH HIGH VOLTAGE MEGGER TESTER.
TEST METHOD AFTER INSTALLATION ;
1. Use analog multi tester.
2. Select resistance range (1R).
3. Confirm the resistance value above 3Ω between anode cable and hull.

WIRING OF SYSTEM

Client to supply all cables and connection boxes between :-

1. Power isolation switch and control panel.

2. Control panel and anodes including earth return leads.

Minimum Recommended Cable Specification

Marine rubber double insulated. Use one core per anode and one core per earth return.
The minimum core size for all cable is as follows : -

0 - 25 metre cable run Use 2.5 sq mm core.

25 - 50 metre cable run Use 4.0 sq mm core.
50 - 100 metre cable run Use 6.0 sq mm core.

Each anode is assembled with different cable color for easy identification as follows;

CU (Copper) Anode Cable - Red

AL (Aluminium) Anode Cable - Blue

WIRING UP

An earth (-ve) return must be installed at each separate anode location i.e. if the system supplied is
designed for 2 sea chests/strainers then 2 earth returns must be used. Use a min of 1 earth return for
every 4 Anodes. Ensure that a separate core of a multicore cable or a completely separate cable is
used for this purpose. Use cable as specified above. Connect to the terminals available in the
rear of the control unit marked 'earth returns'.
We suggest the cable connections are made by welding a bolt on to the strainer or sea chest close to
the anodes (but no nearer than 250mm).
Fit junction box close to anodes and wire to control panel using recommended cable as per
attached wiring diagram and control box drawing.

After switching on, check the polarity of the anodes in relation to the hull.
All anodes are to be positive, relative to a negative hull.

IN-SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

DESCRIPTION

Once the System has been installed it will perform two functions : -

1. Eliminate marine growth and reduce the corrosion rate in the seawater service lines.

2. The System uses impressed current sacrificial anodes which last to designed life.
Once in service the anodes will require renewal within designed life.
Refer to instruction of anode renewal as specified separately.
Please ensure a reasonable dispatch time when ordering replacement anodes.

You will require the following : -

When ordering, inform of maker's reference number specified on the cover sheet of this drawing.

ADJUSTMENTS
The control panel is fully automatic and therefore does not require any adjustments in service.

CHECKING
We suggest that as a matter of course the Control Panel should be checked every week.

When checking, see that all the digital display ammeters are working, this will determine all is
correct. When the anodes have nearly wasted, the digital display above the corresponding anode
will start to fall. When this happens, turn the anode current knob back to zero and leave it until
the anode renewal.
Reset once again at sea after renewal to current settings given previously.

IN-SERVICE ADJUSTMENT AND CURRENT SETTINGS

The effective working of the system can only be determined by inspection and it is suggested that
if after some 6 months of operation the opportunity to examine a strainer, length of pipe or heat
exchanger, presents itself, this should be done.

In the event of there being signs of infestation, the current to each anode in this section should be
increased by a maximum of 0.4 amps, but if no fouling is present the current to each anode within
this section may be reduced by a maximum of 0.2 amps.

This routine can be repeated at intervals, the current being adjusted accordingly.

CAUTION : The higher the current setting the shorter the anode life.
The lower the current setting the greater the anode life.

NOTE :
1. Turn the current setting down to 0.2 Amp for the strainer not in use but be sure to return to
operating current as above when the strainer comes in use.
2. When ship is passing the fresh/brackish water please note the output current from anodes
could be down around ‘0’ Amp and then it triggers alarming. So if the case comes, switch
off the system and after the ship passes over the fresh/brackish water please switch on again.

CAUTION

Customers are recommended for the purchase of genuine parts from us.
Imitated parts make the system get fatally damaged.
