Detailed Description
The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the following drawings, the examples given are only intended to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, for the structure diagram provided by the embodiment of the storage tank inner wall cathodic protection polarization testing device of the present invention, the storage tank inner wall cathodic protection polarization testing device includes: test material 1, reference electrode 2, insulating housing 3, first cable 4 and second cable 5, test material 1 is confirmed according to the material of the storage tank inner wall that awaits measuring, wherein:
the test material 1 is arranged in the insulating shell 3, a first surface is exposed at the bottom of the insulating shell 3, one end of a first cable 4 is connected with a second surface of the test material 1, and the other end of the first cable 4 extends out of the top of the insulating shell 3;
the reference electrode 2 is arranged inside the insulating shell 3, one end of the reference electrode 2 extends out of the bottom of the insulating shell 3 by a preset length, the other end of the reference electrode 2 is connected with one end of a second cable 5, and the other end of the second cable 5 extends out of the top of the insulating shell 3.
It should be understood that refined chemical substances, such as acid and alkali, alcohol, gas, liquid and the like, stored in the storage tank are corrosive, while the storage tank is usually made of metal materials, and a corrosive medium directly contacts with the inner wall of the metal storage tank to form a primary battery with the metal storage tank, so that electrochemical corrosion is extremely easy to occur. Therefore, the insulating housing 3 used in the present embodiment is a fully-enclosed structure, has good sealing performance, and can be sealed by sealing technology to prevent liquid from entering the inside of the insulating housing 3, at positions protruding from the test material 1 and the reference electrode 2.
The shape of the insulating housing 3 can be set according to actual requirements, for example, the insulating housing can be a cylinder, a cube, a cuboid, or the like, and can be made of insulating materials such as fluorine fiber/polyethylene multilayer insulation or polyvinylidene fluoride/modified olefin.
The shape of the test material 1 may also be set according to actual requirements, for example, it may also be a cylinder, a cube, a cuboid, or the like, and if it is a cylinder, one circular top surface of the cylinder may be protruded outside the insulating housing 3, and the other side surfaces and the other top surface may be inside the insulating housing 3. The space between the circular top surface extending outside the insulating housing 3 and the bottom surface of the insulating housing 3 may be sealed by a sealing tape or the like.
It should be noted that, since the storage tank is usually in a high-temperature and high-salt environment, a problem occurs when cathodic protection is applied, namely, the conventional liquid electrolyte type reference electrode 2 has a high leakage rate, such as liquid Cu/CuSO4 electrode electrolyte, and is not suitable for long-term installation. Therefore, the reference electrode 2 in this embodiment may be a solid Ag/AgCl electrode or a pseudo-reference electrode 2, or a platinum electrode or an MMO electrode, which ensures that the testing device can be used in the storage tank for a long time.
It should be noted that, when the material of the inner wall of the storage tank includes two or more kinds, the test material 1 may be set to be a plurality of kinds correspondingly, and the scheme in this embodiment is installed respectively, so as to implement the cathodic protection test on the materials of the inner wall of the storage tank.
