Model US SlimLine Underground Reference Electrode by EDI

30-Year Design Life with Long-Life Gelled Element

Description
The Model US is designed for installation in a small (2") diameter hole. It is ideal for retrofit through asphalt or concrete where it is difficult or costly to drill a large diameter hole. This electrode can be used between storage tanks at service stations or between the primary and secondary containment of an above-ground storage tank. Also, the Model US weighs far less than the industry standard bagged electrode, which reduces shipping costs where this is a consideration.

Typical Applications
- Underground and above ground storage tanks, buried pipelines, elevator shafts
Features
- 30-year design life with EDI's LongLife^tm gelled element.
- Can be installed in a 2 inch diameter hole.
- Proprietary backfill mix to retain moisture and minimize migration of contaminants from the surrounding soil.
- 50 ft. of #14 AWG HMW/PE lead wire is standard.
Housing Specifications
- Size: 1 5/8" dia. X 22" long
- Shipping weight: 5 lbs
Element Specifications
- Design life: 30 yrs
- Shelf life: 1 year minimum
- Stability: +/- 5 mV
- Current drain: 3 uA for 1 min, 0.01 uA continuous
Element Types
- AGG: saturated gelled Ag / AgC1
- CUG: saturated gelled Cu / CuSO₄
Terminations
- SW: 50' of #14 AWG HMW/PE
- LWnnn: nnn ft. #14 AWG HMW/PE
- CWnnn: nnn ft. of custom wire
Model Designation
- Specify as EDI Model US-xxx-yy, where xxx = element type and yy = termination type.
Installation
- To install, simply drill a 2" diameter hole, lower the electrode into place, and slurry in backfill.
