Cathelco ICCP Thruster Tunnel System

Cathelco ICCP system that protects bow and stern thruster tunnels from corrosion, with a design life of up to 15 years and a lifetime warranty.

Description

Corrosion arises in bow and stern thruster tunnels because the hull and tunnel are built from dissimilar materials, and these areas fall outside the scope of conventional hull ICCP systems. Cathelco developed a dedicated ICCP system that delivers monitored, precisely controlled protection to thruster tunnels.

Key features

  • Design life of up to 15 years
  • Self-regulating, needing minimal human intervention
  • Alternative to sacrificial anodes, which are heavier, need regular checks and are replaced at each dry docking
  • Lifetime warranty

Applications

Vessels with bow or stern thruster tunnels; benefits cited are longer tunnel life and integrity, reduced tunnel maintenance and reduced fuel costs.
