Minitek – Protecting steel hulls

The Minitek system uses the latest technology to protect steel hulled craft against corrosion. This is achieved by using a compact control panel and an arrangement of anodes and reference cells which are flush mounted on the hull – so there is nothing to interrupt the smooth profile or cause additional drag.

The current to the anodes is constantly monitored and adjusted to provide the ‘optimum’ level of protection at all times. This is far superior to the performance of sacrificial anodes where the amount of protection cannot be easily verified and may be insufficient to prevent corrosion.

  • Anode life 15 years - unlike sacrificial anodes.
  • Reduced weight in comparison with sacrificial anodes.
  • Flush mounted anodes to ensure smooth hull profile.
  • No maintenance required.
  • Self diagnostic system.
  • Operates from 230V or 115V a.c. electrical supply.
  • Control panel measures only 500mm x 390mm x 210mm for systems up to 40 amps.
  • Lower yard installation costs than recessed sacrificial anodes.

Alutek – Protecting aluminium hulls

Aluminium is generally regarded as a stable material which does not corrode easily. However, when used in conjunction with other metals such as bronze propellers and steel components, serious problems of hull corrosion can arise.

The Alutek System uses the latest technology to eliminate corrosion on aluminium hulls. Unlike traditional sacrificial anode systems, it uses flush mounted, lightweight anodes and advanced monitoring systems to provide the optimum level of protection.

So there is nothing to detract from the smooth lines of your craft or reduce its speed.

  • Flush mounted anodes keep the hull streamlined.
  • Reduced weight in comparison with sacrificial anodes.
  • Automatic system - constantly monitors and adjusts output.
  • Operates from 230V or 115V a.c. electrical supply.
  • Monitoring electrodes - measure the electrical potential near the di-electric shield.
  • Controlling anodes - measure the electrical potential at a remote point on the hull.
  • Shield sensors - detect changes in resistance at the coated aluminium/seawater interface.
  • Lower yard installation costs than recessed sacrificial anodes.
