Technical Specifications and Available Models

The following table provides the nominal body dimensions, overall horizontal lengths and weights of all seven MME Pitguard zinc anodes. Body dimensions are specified as length × width × height. All dimensions are in millimetres.

Construction and Mounting

The MME Pitguard anodes consist of zinc alloy bodies incorporating steel mounting inserts. Each model features an M10 clamping connection and a 12 mm diameter insert.

The mounting arrangement includes a projecting steel element and a clamp. One clamp is supplied per anode.

• Insert Material: Steel.
• Insert Diameter: Ø12 mm.
• Clamping Connection: M10.
• Mounting Configuration: Integrated insert with projecting mounting element and clamp.

When selecting an anode, both the zinc body dimensions and overall horizontal length should be considered to ensure sufficient installation space.

Dimensions and Model Selection

The seven models differ in body dimensions, overall length and nominal weight.

• MME40ZP: 310 × 45 × 45 mm body, 365 mm overall length and 4.0 kg nominal net weight.
• MME60ZP: 460 × 45 × 45 mm body, 515 mm overall length and 6.0 kg nominal net weight.
• MME89ZP: 305 × 63 × 70 mm body, 355 mm overall length and 8.9 kg nominal net weight.
• MME100ZP: 395 × 61 × 60 mm body, 445 mm overall length and 10.0 kg nominal net weight.
• MME120ZP: 500 × 60 × 56 mm body, 555 mm overall length and 12.0 kg nominal net weight.
• MME150ZP: 625 × 60 × 57 mm body, 680 mm overall length and 15.0 kg nominal net weight.
• MME156ZP: 305 × 80 × 95 mm body, 355 mm overall length and 15.6 kg nominal net weight.

The MME40ZP and MME60ZP share the same body width and height of 45 × 45 mm but differ in length and nominal weight.

The MME89ZP and MME156ZP share an overall horizontal length of 355 mm but have different body dimensions and weights.

The MME150ZP has the longest body in the range at 625 mm, while the MME156ZP has the highest nominal net weight at 15.6 kg.

Zinc Alloy Specifications

The zinc alloy specifications are in accordance with U.S. MIL Spec. A-18001K.

• Nominal Electrochemical Capacity: 780 Ah/kg.
• Nominal Solution Potential: -1050 mV versus an Ag/AgCl reference cell in seawater.

Corrosion Protection

The zinc anodes provide sacrificial corrosion protection by corroding preferentially to help protect connected marine metal components.

The range offers seven different body configurations with integrated steel mounting inserts and clamps. Selection should take into account the required body dimensions, available mounting space and overall length.
