INSTRODUCTION

Corrosion or deterioration of the metals used in the construction of ship’s hulls has posed a problem to ship
owners for many years. Of all the various anti-corrosion systems used by the ship building industry, cathod-
ic protection is one of the most efficient, being a positive and economical solution to the multiple corrosion
problems encountered on the underwater structures of ships. The AQUAMATIC Impressed Current Cathod-
ic Protection System incorporates the most up to date and advanced features in this field of corrosion engi-
neering.

FUNDAMENTAL CORROSION PROBLEMS

The metals comprising a ship’s hull lying below the waterline are affected by electrolytic /galvanic corrosive
action. This is the result of electric current flowing between one metal and another in a solution. In this case
the solution is the sea water surrounding the hull and the metals are the dissimilar metal areas and ap-
pendages of the hull. This arrangement may represented by a simple corrosion cell which comprises two
different metals electrically connected and immersed in an electrolytic solution such as sea water. (Fig 1)

The electro-chemical characteristics of the respective metals and their place in the galvanic series govern
the direction of a resultant current flow. Current will flow in the electrolyte from the anode to the cathode.

The current flow from the anode results in the loss of anodic metal (the process known as corrosion) while
the cathodic metal receiving the current will remain intact and corrosion free. (See Fig II)

These anodic and cathodic areas exist in the structure of ship’s hulls due to several conditions which in-
clude the coupling of metals of different potentials, physical differences in the grades or compositions of the
metals forming the hull, deterioration or non-uniformity of paintwork etc. There may even be spontaneous
formation of inseparable anodes and cathodes on an otherwise uniform metal surface. Corrosion currents
can also be produced by inconsistencies in the composition of the surrounding seawater. It follows that
elimination of anodic areas of metallic components is of paramount importance to the successful perfor-
mance of ships.

A most efficient method of overcoming this corrosion problem is the introduction of an additional metal,
more anodic than the existing anodic areas on the vital metallic ship components. This is the basis of ca-
thodic protection. The additional anode which will ultimately be sacrificed may consist of a metal at the
negative end of the galvanic series such as an alloy of aluminium, zinc or magnesium.

THE I.C.C.P (AQUAMATIC) SYSTEM

The I.C.C.P (AQUAMATIC) System consists essentially of several Anodes, Reference Electrodes and a
Controller Power Unit. These items are inter-connected as shown in Fig III. The types and sizes of the
components and their positions in and around the hull are specified according to design parameters making
allowance for the fluctuations in protection current demand which may be experienced due to changes in
environmental conditions during sea-going service.

With the main hull structure protected, consideration must be given to the propeller, any exposed shafting
and the rudder. The propeller and exposed shaft are protected by grounding the shaft to the hull structure
with a shaft slipring to make these appendages electrically common with the ship’s hull. The rudder is
grounded by bonding the rudder stock to the ship’s hull and in this way the rudder is also protected by the
I.C.C.P system.

The I.C.C.P System of cathodic protection has considerable advantages over those systems utilizing sacri-
ficial galvanic anodes since it employs anode materials which are relatively inert and through which a DC
current may be passed. This protective current is generated and controlled within the system by a com-
bined Controller Power Unit.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION FOR CONTROLLER POWER UNIT

CONTROLLER POWER UNIT

a) It is important that the place of installation should be reasonably cool, dry and well ventilated, and
should be away from any corrosive fumes or apparatus such as heaters, steam pipes, etc., which
will generate excessive heat.

b) Free access for cooling air must be permitted, allowing a minimum of 500mm above and 300mm
clear from the unit panels. The flow of air should not be restricted. The unit must be located in
such a position that the maximum temperature will not exceed 50℃.

c) To ensure accurate readings are obtained during periodic operation check, the cabinet should be
mounted with its instrumentation readily visible. Provide a suitably fabricated support for unit size,
mounting details and weight.

d) Provide and install appropriate input power supply cables to the controller power unit as shown on
the installation drawing. Check that the AC power supply source conforms to the voltage. Phase
and frequency specifications given on the nameplate.

e) Provide and install suitable cable (With regard to the maximum cathodic protection current), be-
tween the HULL (-) terminal in the Controller Power Unit and a suitable area of the main hull struc-
ture. * Note this connection must be capable of carrying full rated output of unit.

f) The positive output bus bar is made to facilitate the attachment of a varying number and size of
output fuses. The actual number and size (to be consistent with the rated output of the unit) is de-
termined by the actual installation. The anode cables are connected to the lower end of the output
fuses and secured using the internal cable tie bar provided.

g) The unit can operate with zero, one or two or four reference electrodes connected to the electrode
terminal block. The single core cables from the reference electrodes should be terminated at the
terminal block provided. Screened cables should be used throughout and the screen(s)
terminated to the hull negative connection at the power unit end only i.e. not at the electrode end, if
no reference electrodes are connected to the unit, operation is possible only in the ‘manual’ mode.

h) Connect a low current lead to the cubicle earth stud using a minimum conductor size of 4㎟. This is
essentially a non-current carrying cable used to provide the earth potential essential for correct op-
eration of the control circuitry.

SHAFT EARTHING

The shaft slip-ring is supplied as a complete unit with silver band and clamping arrangement which
can be easily installed by competent ship’s engineering personnel, in the following order:

Select a suitable position on the shaft to install the slip-ring which should be close to a pedestal or
convenient piece of ships structure where the brush holder can be installed.

a. Then thoroughly clean the shaft in the area where the slip ring is to be fitted ensuring that all
grease and dirt on the shaft are removed.

b. The slip rings are manufactured slightly oversized to allow for small variations in shaft diameter.
When installing, the excess material should be removed by filing or cutting the joint faces be-
fore securing the clamping arrangements.

c. After removing the excess material the two band clamps are tightened so that the silver strip is
a close tight fit around the shaft.

d. Remove any excess banding strip from the assembly and ensure that this strip is cut back to
the housing.

e. Install a 25㎜ diameter rod (brush holder spigot) on a convenient piece of ships structure or
pedestal bearing’s that it is center parallel to the shaft center in both planes.(The mounting
bracket and rod are ship or shipyard supply items.)

INTRODUCTION

Some of the fundamental causes of corrosion problems to which all sea going vessels are subject are ex-
plained in the General Description Section of this Manual. The AQUAMATIC Cathodic Protection System
overcomes these problems and has been developed to provide considerable advantages over those sys-
tems utilizing sacrificial galvanic anodes.
The AQUAMATIC System employs relatively inert anode materials through which DC current is applied
from external source of power.

I.C.C.P SYSTEM OPERATION

The Controller Power Unit is supplied with AC power from the vessel’s electrical system. This AC power is
rectified in the rectifier section and is distributed to the anodes form where it flows through the surrounding
sea water to return through the hull, thus making the entire hull structure cathodic or more negative with
respect to the anodes.

Tests have shown that there is an optimum value for protection current. Increasing the value above this op-
timum provides no further protection and wastes power. Excessive protection current may even cause
damage to the hull paintwork. To ensure adequate protection, yet prevent “over protection” at all times,
the protection current must be controlled according to changes in environmental conditions.

The Zinc Reference Electrodes develop and maintain a relatively constant electrical potential in natural wa-
ters and may therefore be used as a reference for measuring the potential of the adjacent steel hull struc-
ture. With Zinc Reference Electrodes the normal hull-to reference potentials are in the order of 400 to
600mV, the hull being positive with respect to the Reference electrode. To provide the optimum amount of
protection, the hull-to-Reference Potential must be maintained at approximately 220mV.

The Reference Electrodes are connected by screened cable to control section in the Controller Power Unit.
The control section is a single solid state plug-in printed circuit board which incorporates all the monitoring
and control functions.

In order to provide the correct protection current flow and maintain the hull-to-reference potential at 220mV,
the signal from the Reference Electrodes is compared with a “desired setting corresponding to 220mV. The
“Desired” Setting is adjusted by the appropriate figure being selected on the display in the “SET UP” mode
in the computer sequences.

16
For Every Corner of Your World.
AQUAMATIC MANUAL

The unit is also provided with CURRENT LIMIT and VOLTAGE LIMIT controls, which again are adjusted by
the appropriate figure being selected on the display in the “SET UP” mode in the computer sequence. The
‘set potential’, current limit and voltage parameters are initially set during commissioning and should not
require re-adjustment by anyone other than a representative of Wilson Walton Korea.
The difference between the hull-to-reference potential and the “desired” setting is amplified and a signal
corresponding to this difference is applied to the control circuits of thyristors which cause a corresponding
variation in output from the transformer rectifier and hence the DC protection current is adjusted in accord-
ance with the Cathodic Protection requirements. (See later section for detailed Controller Power Unit opera-
tion).

The control board is designed to monitor high internal impedance to the reference electrode input circuits.
This is necessary to prevent the potential measuring circuit from drawing too much current from the refer-
ence electrodes which could cause them to become unstable. The reference electrodes are large enough to
tolerate a current drainage of 50 micro amperes. The circuitry of the control section restricts the current flow
to within these parameters thus ensuring that the reference electrode potential will remain stable.

The front panel of controller power unit is provided with an on/off switch (triple pole moulded case circuit
breaker) and a neon indicator which is illuminated when a mains power supply is connected and the circuit
breaker switched on. Access to all internal components is via the hinged front door which is lockable. A
window is provided in the front door to allow the operator to periodically view the performance indicators
which are situated on the internally mounted P.C.B. control unit.

The lead crystal display is mounted at the top center of the P.C.B. and indicates when indexed.

- Total Current Output flowing through all anodes

- Hull to reference potential of reference electrode 1 & 2 / 3 & 4 (if presented)

- Output Voltage of unit.

- The propeller shaft potential.

- The cabinet temperature.

- Any alarm condition that may be enunciated.

It follows that the readings given by the indicators for each reference electrode may vary slightly.

However, all the Reference Electrodes are directly connected all times to the control section, so that the
highest numerical hull-to-reference potential (indicating the lowest level of protection) determines the cur-
rent output through the anodes.

17
For Every Corner of Your World.
AQUAMATIC MANUAL
Readings of current output amperes are an indication of the amount of current required to achieve protec-
tion and therefore the amount of bare steel in contact with the sea water. It follows that the current will in-
crease as coating lost. Other depolarizing factors will alter the current output requirements. These include
the speed and turbulence of water past the hull and the amount of oxygen it contains.
Output voltage will increase as the need for protective current increases. To drive more current through the
anodes a higher voltage will be required. Output voltage will also be affected by the resistance of the sea
water through which the current is flowing between anodes and hull. Sea water resistivity varies with tem-
perature and salinity. Typical values of sea water from 25 to 50 ohm/㎝ may be encountered, whilst fresh
water resistivity may be 1,000 ohm/cm. Output voltage will therefore also rise in cold sea water and be at a
maximum (full scale deflection) in fresh water.

Since the I.C.C.P System is automatic in operation, no further adjustment to any of the controls is neces-
sary after the system has been commissioned and initially energized. To determine that the I.C.C.P System
is functioning correctly and to check that no minor faults exist, system log sheets are supplied on which the
readings of the indicators in the Controller Power Unit must be recorded daily. The log sheets provide a
continuous record of the level of protection as well as a means of diagnosing any malfunction in the system.
The one copy of each log sheet, when completed, must be returned to eh Head Office of Wilson Walton
Korea Ltd, who will assess the information and advice on the performance of the system. Further copies
should be sent to owner’s office and copy retained for record purposes on board.

The system log sheets must be completed in the following manner.


1. The vessel’s name, voyage number and the starting and finishing dates must be entered across the top
of the log sheet.

2. The location of the vessel must be entered in the first column starting from day one.

3. Read the indicators of the Controller Power Unit and under the heading Aft System 1 and the su-
heading Output, enter the digital read out for Amps and Volts (fig.3.1) readings in the Amp and Volt col-
umns respectively.

4. The next group of columns under the heading Potential (MV) must be completed by entering the read-
ing of the first Reference Electrode position. Enter the reading given by the indicator in the first col-
umn under the heading Potential (MV). Next observe the reading of the second electrode position and
enter the mill-volt reading of the next column.

5. The group of columns under the heading Aft System 2 (if fitted) and Fwd System (if fitted) had been
provided for vessels fitted with more than one Controller Power Unit. The readings given for the appro-
priate indicators, must be entered into the relevant columns as detailed under steps (3) and (4) above.

6. Any observations should be made at the bottom of the log sheet under the heading “Remarks”.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

General

The I.C.C.P System contains some of the best electrical equipment and hull units available, and is specifi-
cally designed to withstand the rigours of shipboard environment.

While the components of the system are designed to operate with a minimum of attention, it is advised that
the I.C.C.P System is serviced at scheduled Dry-docking of the vessel by Wilson Walton Korea engineers,
when overhaul of the hull units can be carried out. Electrical tests and check on the Controller power Unit
are best carried out with the vessel afloat. The only component requiring periodic attention by ships staff is
the shaft slipring. This should be cleaned regularly to remove all traces of grease and dust. Replace-
ment brushes are easily fitted and are immediately available from any of the Wilson Walton Agents and
Stockiest.

Controller Power Unit

Because a solid state power regulator and control system is used in this equipment only very limited routine
maintenance is necessary.

At regular intervals the following should be carried out: -

ⅰ) Check ventilation grilles (bottom and top sides) to ensure that they are not obstructed in any way.

ⅱ) Check that all electrical connections are secure.

ⅲ) Clean out the inside of the cubicle to remove harmful dust and dirt deposits.

ⅳ) Clean the window in the front door of the equipment

ⅴ) Check that the equipment is dry.

ⅵ) Check that the fan control relay is securely plugged into socket.

3.0 DISPLAY UNDER ALARM CONDITIONS

3.1 DISPLAY OF FAULTS

Should an abnormal condition occur, the alarm scenario will be activated. At this point, once enter key
is pressed this will display first alarm message.
If the LEFT or RIGHT key is continually pressed, the LCD display will skip through all alarm message
screens in chronological order. At this point, all abnormal conditions should be removed.
Should the said abnormal condition exceed the set alarm time (i.e.- 3 minute-if so set) then only at this
point will the alarm be activated and not before.
Once the system starts to re-operate then new alarm time setting is no longer required. Once the alarm
is set to it’s off position then extreme caution must be taken as no alarm will now occur.

Propeller Shaft Grounding Device

Item 14. One(1) intermediate shaft grounding assembly


- Double brush holder
- Spindle with insulation sleeve
- Brush
- Earthing cable

Item 15. One(1) intermediate shaft potential monitoring assembly
- Single brush holder
- Spindle with sleeve
- Brush
- Digital Milli-voltmeter
-
Item 16. Two(2) band clamp assembly
- Silver alloy plate
- Clamp
Item 17. One(1) Set spare brush

Operation
The millivoltmeter normally reads 300mV full scale. If readings are above 80mV, alarm outputs.
The clean the surface of slip-ring and the contact face of brush with a clean cloth.
The millivoltmeter will read ”0” when shaft is at rest because the current entering the propeller will
return to the hull through the bearing and turbine reduction gears.
A millivoltmeter reading of “0” when shaft is turning at sea indicates a faulty millivoltmeter
installation. Checks for connections of all the terminals and tightness of all the fittings are required.

Do Better Tomorrow

Maintenance
This grounding assembly should be checked every seven days for cleanliness. If there has been a
build-up of oil on the slip-ring face this should be removed with a degreaser. Inspect and clean the
brushes and brush holder to prevent blocking from dirt. Inspect the brush copper leads (pig tails) to
ensure they have not become loose or corroded. The brush wear-down should be noted and the
compression of the hold-down springs on the brushes should be adjusted to ensure good electrical
contact.

Guarantee
The equipment will be guaranteed against defective component design, workmanship and materials
for a period of 13 months after delivery of vessel.
This guarantee is based on the system being installed according to HWASEUNG R&A
installation procedures.
