Volvo Penta Active Corrosion Protection System.
The QL Active Corrosion Protection System helps prevent galvanic corrosion from attacking the metal parts of your sterndrive or outboard. This system complements the Sterndrive/ outboard sacrificial anodes and is not intended to replace those. The Active Corrosion Protection System is recommended for fibreglass boats that are used in saltwater with varying degrees of corrosiveness, or where extra protection against corrosion is needed. The system is designed to protect the mass of one sterndrive or outboard. An additional kit is required for installation on a twin-engine boat.
The system works using an onboard electronic control unit, together with a reference anode and an active anode — both fitted below the waterline. The reference anode senses the electrical
potential of the surrounding water and sends a signal to the control unit, which in turn sends an appropriate current to the active anode. Different combinations of water temperature, chemical composition and exposed surface require different levels of current. The active anode then emits
varying levels of ions into the water surrounding the drive, and these ions effectively prevent galvanic corrosion, ultimately protecting the drive.
The LED’s on the electronic control unit let you know if the drive is being protected. The system constantly monitors the area around the sterndrive or outboard. By reading the LED’s on the
electronic control unit which is mounted inside the boat you will be aware of what is going on under the water around your sterndrive or outboard.
Features:
• Helps to prevent galvanic corrosion.
• Works with your aluminium or zinc anodes to protect your sterndrive or outboard.
• Fits all Sterndrives and outboards in saltwater applications.
• Electronic control unit inside the boat has LED’s which let you know the drive is being protected.
• Provides constant monitoring of the drive or outboard while in saltwater.
• Low amp draws 3mA while in the monitoring mode.
• Easy to install, no special tools required.
• CE approved.
• Not designed for use in freshwater or with magnesium anodes.
• No moving parts
