Anodes
Volvo Penta's Active Corrosion Protection system
(ACP) protects IPS units against galvanic corrosion.
Replace anodes when 50% of the anode has been
consumed.
NOTICE! The anode on the IPS unit must always
remain in place, even if an ACP is connected.
If the boat is equipped with regular anodes, they must
be replaced when 50% has been consumed.
NOTICE! When regular anodes are fitted, there is
always 1 anode per drive.
Rub new anodes with an emery cloth to remove oxide
and activate their protection.
Do not use a wire brush or grinding abrasive. This will
impair the galvanic function of the anode.
NOTICE! Different materials on anodes four different
environments.
