What Is Sodium Hypochlorite Generator Titanium Anode Plate and How to Choose the Right One for Your Industry?
A Ru+Ir Coated Titanium Electrode is a high-performance insoluble anode specifically designed for sodium hypochlorite generation systems. The electrode consists of a Grade 1 or Grade 2 titanium substrate coated with a precious metal oxide layer containing ruthenium (Ru) and iridium (Ir). This advanced coating provides excellent catalytic activity, low chlorine evolution potential, superior corrosion resistance, and long operational life in chloride-containing electrolytes.
In sodium hypochlorite generators, Ru+Ir coated titanium electrodes convert diluted saltwater into sodium hypochlorite through electrolysis. The generated sodium hypochlorite serves as an effective disinfectant for water treatment, swimming pools, hospitals, cooling towers, municipal water systems, aquaculture, food processing facilities, and industrial sanitation applications.
Choosing the right Ru+Ir coated titanium electrode requires evaluating several key factors. Buyers should consider coating composition, coating loading, current density requirements, electrolyte concentration, operating temperature, electrode dimensions, service life expectations, and installation configuration. A properly designed electrode improves chlorine generation efficiency, reduces energy consumption, minimizes maintenance costs, and extends equipment lifespan.

Selecting the right Ru+Ir coated titanium electrode is essential for achieving efficient sodium hypochlorite production, low energy consumption, and long service life. Before purchasing, first determine the required sodium hypochlorite output capacity of your system. Higher production capacities require larger active electrode areas and higher current-carrying capabilities.
Next, evaluate the operating conditions, including electrolyte concentration, temperature, current density, and operating hours. These factors directly affect coating performance and electrode lifespan. Choosing the proper coating loading (typically 6–20 g/m²) helps ensure stable chlorine generation and optimal durability.
The titanium substrate quality is equally important. Grade 1 and Grade 2 titanium are commonly used due to their excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. Buyers should also consider electrode shape and installation requirements, such as plate, mesh, rod, or tubular designs.
When comparing suppliers, request coating adhesion reports, dimensional inspection records, electrochemical testing data, and expected service-life information. Reliable manufacturers should provide technical support and customization services based on your specific operating conditions.
Finally, consider the total lifecycle cost rather than only the initial purchase price. High-quality Ru+Ir coated titanium electrodes typically offer lower maintenance costs, reduced downtime, improved current efficiency, and longer operating life, resulting in greater long-term value and more reliable sodium hypochlorite generation performance.

1. What is a Sodium hypochlorite generator titanium anode plate? |

What Is Sodium hypochlorite generator titanium anode plate?
A Ru+Ir coated titanium electrode is an insoluble anode used in electrolytic sodium hypochlorite production equipment. The titanium substrate provides mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, while the ruthenium-iridium oxide coating acts as a highly active catalytic layer for chlorine evolution reactions.
When electric current passes through a saltwater solution, chloride ions are converted into chlorine gas at the anode surface. The chlorine reacts with water and sodium hydroxide to form sodium hypochlorite. Due to its high catalytic efficiency, low operating voltage, and excellent durability, the Ru+Ir coated titanium electrode has become the preferred anode material for modern sodium hypochlorite generation systems. It offers stable performance, reduced power consumption, extended service life, and consistent disinfectant production.
