RECTIFIERS

These Rectifiers manufactured by Integrated Rectifier Technologies Inc. are built under the most efficient quality control procedures, creating a reliable and long lasting device that allows our customer to have an Excellent Performance equipment that will operate with high standards at the field. The Enclosure that these Rectifiers have, matches perfectly the IP 56 since this enclosure is the NEMA4 enclosure. 

SACRIFICE ANODES

Alloy Composition Type I, II
Bare Weight: 0.6 Kg/m

GROUND BEDS

A Unique system that allows a better performance of the Cathodic Protection system because it has the next advantages:
+ It is a more Environmental Friendly Solution by not allowing cross aquifer Pollution.
+ Is a solution that is design to last more than 30 years and utilizes less than 5 amps current per anode.
+ Better Anodes: Our Enhanced AEL+Anodes™ have the main advantage that have built a MMO
+ Anode at the Core and utilizes a Surrounding impermeable and Conductive 4 inch layer that allows our Anodes to last longer with a the advantages that it operates similar to the Graphite Anode, So this anodes concentrate both best advantages from MMO anodes and Graphite Anodes in the same device. In other words our anodes are two type of anodes in one.
+ Our system has one Cable per Anode Allowing a better Electricity Distribution from the rectifier to each Anode, through a special designed Shunt Box system to handle all the anodes per each ground bed.

BACKFILL FOR SACRIFICE ANODES:

- Sodium benonite: 60 % By mass
- Gypsum: 40 % By mass
- Bulk density: 1200 (kg/m3)
- Electric resistivity (wet): 250 (ohm-cm)

TEST STATIONS

- Surge Diverters
- Anode Shunt Boxes

SATELLITE BASED REMOTE MONITORING SYSTEM 

CIM9000 RMU - Advantages:
- The CIM9000 statistical acquisition process is innovative and well suited to monitor AC and DC potentials, rectifiers, and bonds.
- The Genesys CIM9000 RMU takes many readings, like a data logger, before sending the end customer the weekly log. When it’s time to transmit the data to the end customer we calculate the Mean, Lower Bounds, Upper Bounds, and Standard Deviation of the data. Our statistical approach allows the end customer to clearly see what’s been happening in a much broader view catching fluctuations that may be occurring on your assets.
- We utilize Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite communications with a global provider, Orbcomm, to guarantee communication coverage globally.
- ORBCOMM is a leading global satellite data communications company focused exclusively on Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications. ORBCOMM provides low cost, reliable communication services around the world through a global network of low-earth orbit (LEO) satellites and accompanying ground infrastructure.
- 8 Precision Full Range Instrumentation Channels (4 and 8 Channel configurations available)
- All channels have multi-scale auto ranging just like a Fluke Digital volt meter.
- All channels are fully floating with measurements from: ± 0.1mV to ± 400v levels.
- All channels are Bi-Polar (reading positive and negative). This is an important feature for capturing and understanding the flow of current in a circuit and the direction of current flow through Interference
- Bonds connected to foreign pipeline crossings.
- All channels utilize an innovative design that simultaneously measures AC and DC voltages.
- Outstanding Surge and Lightning Protection
- All inputs include multi-level protection in addition to disconnecting the CIM inputs between measurements with relays.
- All channels are fully floating and not referenced to earth ground and potentially dangerous surge voltages and currents.
- Genesys understands surge and lightning challenges and is a distributor of lightning and surge arrestors.
- The CIM9000 needs no external power to operate and is truly geared for remote monitoring. The time required to install the CIM9000 is greatly reduced by not requiring external power and the installation is simple and can easily be performed by company CP Technicians. Some examples include:
- Mounting the CIM9000 RMU on test posts in the middle of a noisy AC Transmission corridor monitoring AC and DC pipeline potentials across a permanent half cell.
- Installing the CIM9000 RMU on a test post in the middle of a marsh monitoring a solar rectifier.
