Easy to maintain
- The SRAF does not require any particular maintainance
beyond normal wear of the anodes.
- Anodes remplacement
The anodes will remain effective for approximately 12 to 24 months depending on the regions, after which they must be replaced. The cost of spare anodes is 350 € HT.
- Maintainance contract (optional)
We recommend this option at least the first year, in order to optimize the adjustment of the initial settings : 500 € HT per year (including the anodes replacement)
- Distance control of anodes wear
The system is equipped with an interface which alllows to control from a distance the anodes wear, and also to optimize the adjustment.
Little power Consumption
- The rectifyer consumes approximately 5 watts, and work on 12v~, 24v~ or
220 v=.
- It can be plugged directly to current available in most marinas, or plugged on the boat's electrical system.
- Works also on solar energy installations.
Return on investment in 2 to 4 years
- The cost of uphauling a 12 m boat can reach 2000 € for a full cleaning service, with two coats of antifouling paint, propellers cleaning and protecting, etc.
- THe SRAF costs 3950 € HT. Even when you add the anodes replacement (350 € every 18 months), you will need no more than 4 years to recover your investment. Not counting the annoying and time consuming procedure...
- Best would be yet to group a number of neighbouring boats to conceive a common protection, which can reduce even more the individual cost. For a SRAF can protect a zone of 12 meters in diameter.
