Technical Specifications and Available Variants

The following table provides the individual product numbers, dimensions, shapes and stated anode compatibility. Dimensions are specified as length × width in millimetres.

Construction and Protective Function

The MME backplates are manufactured from neoprene and are designed to protect the rear surfaces of anodes from wear. By protecting the contact surface, the backplates help prevent the anodes from becoming loose over time.

• Neoprene Construction: Provides a protective layer behind the anode.
• Wear Protection: Designed to reduce wear on the rear surface of the anode.
• Secure Installation: Helps prevent loosening caused by wear.
• Model-Specific Selection: Different shapes and dimensions are available for different anode models.

Available Shapes and Dimensions

The range includes several configurations with different dimensions and shapes.

Round Backplates

• MMEVMN047: 100 × 100 mm.
• MMEVMN046: 100 × 100 mm.
• MMEVMN045: 100 × 100 mm.
• MMEVMN048: 160 × 160 mm.
• MMEVMN044: 100 × 100 mm.
• MMEVMN049: 230 × 230 mm.

Rectangular Backplates

• MMEVMN042: 305 × 88 mm.

Drop-Shaped Backplate

• MMEVMN043: 100 × 100 mm.

The MMEVMN058 is listed for 100AB and 110AB anodes, but its dimensions and shape are not specified in the available product information.

Anode Compatibility and Selection

Each backplate is associated with specific MME anode models. Several variants share the same dimensions but have different product numbers and stated compatibility.

For example, MMEVMN047, MMEVMN046, MMEVMN045 and MMEVMN044 are all specified as round backplates measuring 100 × 100 mm. Their compatibility listings differ, so dimensions alone should not be used to identify the required replacement.

The MMEVMN043 is also specified as 100 × 100 mm but has a drop-shaped configuration rather than a round shape.

Before ordering, check the backplate product number and dimensions against the anode and existing mounting arrangement. Compatibility listings should be confirmed where the stated backplate dimensions do not correspond to the anode dimensions.

Packaging and Supply

The product descriptions specify individual sales or packaging units for most variants.

• Sales Unit: 1 piece, where specified.
• Packaging: Loose, where specified.
• Logistics Packaging: Pallet, where specified.
• Packaging Unit: 1 piece, where specified.
