ICCC manufactures Rustrol® Systems for worldwide distribution. The Rustrol® Polarization Cells and the solid-state Rustrol® Cathodic Isolator® are an essential components for safely isolating cathodically protected structures(i.e. pipelines).

Rustrol® Systems are designed to protect personnel and equipment from electrical disturbances. Rustrol® Systems effectively block cathodic protection DC voltages; all other electrical disturbances are freely conducted to ground, such as:

• AC Fault Current
• Mitigation of induced AC Voltages
• Lightning

Cathodic protection, proven by decades of service in a variety of applications, prevents corrosion of buried or submerged metallic structures.
Cathodic protection is most efficiently and uniformly applied when the primary structure is electrically isolated – (i.e., all metallic/electrical contacts with foreign metallic structures are eliminated).
Electrical isolation provides three major benefits:

• Restriction of the required protective current to the surface of the primary structure to produce a uniform polarized level of protection.
• Minimization of stray DC current interference.
• Prevention of galvanic current between metallic structures.

Unique developments in electronic circuitry are incorporated into the Rustrol® solid-state Cathodic Isolator® to assure acute sensitivity; instant response; and "fail-safe", maintenance-free operation in a non-electrolytic environment.

The Cathodic Isolator® and associated hardware feature the most advanced and reliable components available today. Each critical component is precisely machined and carefully assembled to meet Rustrol®'s exceptionally stringent quality assurance standards. The easy-to-mount standard NEMA 4 enclosure simplifies installation.

Research and development models have undergone thorough acceptance-testing by independant high-current test facilities and have been fully approved (test data available upon request).
