Advanced Moisture Control Through Electro-Osmotic Technology

ElectroTechCP EOP™ is an electro-osmotic system that controls water movement through concrete using a pulsating electric field. Engineered by STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES, this state-of-the-art technology effectively manages moisture and corrosion in concrete.

This patented system mitigates chronic moisture issues by reducing moisture transmission and content through concrete’s pore and capillary structure. It can be used alone or in conjunction with other solutions to extend the service life of concrete significantly.

Specialty Products Developed by STRUCTURAL TECHNOLOGIES

In selected applications, the patented Electro Tech CP EOP™ System provides the ability to mitigate chronic moisture problems in concrete – by lowering moisture transmission and content through concrete’s pore and capillary structure. It can be used alone, or in conjunction with other moisture control solutions to extend the service life of concrete.

The ElectroTech CP EOP™ Dewatering System includes four main components:

  • Controller
    Utilizing our proprietary Electro Tech CP™ advanced controllers and software, a safe, low-voltage DC electric field is applied between the anodes and cathodes and through the structure, while also monitoring system performance and allowing for adjustments to be made to the system through a remote connection.
  • Anodes:
    Probe, mesh, surface applied or other anodes establish a positive electrical charge inside the structure being protected.
  • Cathodes:
    The tips of copper-coated rods carry the negative charge and are strategically placed outside the structure being protected.
  • Reference Cells & Probes:
    Placed within the structure, these probes continuously monitor and regulate such parameters as moisture levels, temperature, voltage, current and corrosion potential.
