Considerations for Basket Sizing:
Sizing and Styles:
- Rectangular Baskets: 2-1/2” x 6″
– Standard Stock Lengths include 18″, 24″, 30″, 36″. Other lengths are built to order. - Round Baskets: 2 1/2″ Diameter x Length
– Standard Stock Lengths include 18″, 24″, 30″, and 36″. Other lengths are built to order.
BASKET AMPERAGE & ANODE HOOKS
Rectangular Baskets are standard with 50 AMPS/Basket Double Contact Hooks. Higher Amperage is available (i.e., 100 Amps, 150 Amps and 200 Plus Amps).
To determine the AMPS needed per basket, please use the following formula:
AMPS needed per Basket =
Total AMPS of TANK
Total # of Baskets
Amperage Rating Per Anode Hook:
- 25AMP = 1/8″ x 1″ Double Contact Hook or 3/8″ Square Bar Hook
- 50AMP = 1/4″ x 1″ Double Contact Hook or 1/2″ Square Bar Hook
- 75AMP = 3/8″ x 1″ Double Contact Hook or 5/8″ Square Bar Hook
- 100AMP = 1/2″ x 1″ Double Contact Hook or 3/4″ Square Bar Hook
Normal Application:
- Inverted “V” Lift Hooks
- Inverted “U” Hooks
- “T” Handle Lift Hooks
- Reverse Lift Hooks for easier access in lifting baskets
- Submergible Hooks
- Loading Chutes for easier anode loading
- Mesh on 4 sides of basket for greater anode to cathode ratio
For Heavy Duty applications, TITAN offers the following anode basket options:
- Heavier hooks for strength and current carrying capabilities
- Ti Clad Copper Hooks for higher amperage rating
- Thicker mesh material to minimize bulging of basket
- Thicker side channel construction
