Time to Fall Back🍂 Daylight Saving Time ends at 2 AM tomorrow (Sunday), so remember to set your clocks back an hour. Just like adjusting your clocks keeps you on schedule, regular maintenance and monitoring keep corrosion under control. Stay proactive with your cathodic protection systems to prevent costly issues down the road. #FarwestCorrosion #DaylightSavingTime #CathodicProtection

Farwest Corrosion Control is exhibiting at the AMPP Western Conference in San Diego next week, from November 4th-6th. This premier event hosted by the AMPP SoCal Chapter, offers a three-track program focused on cathodic protection, coatings and marine technologies. Stop by our booth #64 to meet with our team and learn about our comprehensive cathodic protection and corrosion solutions. This is a great opportunity to network, exchange ideas and discover innovations after a four-year hiatus. We hope to see you there! 📅 Event Dates: November 4-6, 2024 📍 Location: San Diego Visit the AMPP website to learn more about the conference, sessions and exhibitors: https://ow.ly/jls350TUOFK #AMPPWesternConference #CorrosionControl #FarwestCorrosion #CathodicProtection

🎃 Happy Halloween from Morph and all of us at Farwest Corrosion Control! May your festivities be safe and full of spooky fun. And remember, the only thing scarier than ghosts and goblins? Watching assets corrode before your eyes! Don't let corrosion haunt you! #FarwestCorrosionControl #HappyHalloween 🎃👻

Induced AC on pipelines can cause serious issues, including shock hazards for technicians and soil-side corrosion. This occurs when pipelines run near high-power transmission lines, and the AC can be induced either inductively (from electromagnetic fields) or conductively (from direct contact with power systems). Factors like pipeline alignment, power demand and soil resistivity influence the magnitude of induced AC. Learn more about how to manage these risks in Farwest's detailed on page 11 of our ebook, Beneath the Surface: https://lnkd.in/geGknNhq #CorrosionControl #PipelineSafety #AConPipelines #beneathTheSurface

Morph here today representing cathodic protection test stations. These devices are a critically important tool in the proactive monitoring of CP system performance. Test stations allow testing and monitoring as well as access to underground pipelines and other buried structures. Installations consist of various components, such as coupons, reference electrodes, wiring and more to provide system operators with vital information about the integrity and performance of their cathodic protection system If you are not familiar with the Farwest Rapid-Check Test Station, contact a Farwest rep to learn more today! #TestStations #CathodicProtection #CorrosionControl

Understanding metal conductivity is crucial when designing cathodic protection (CP) solutions. Metals like copper, widely used in electrical wiring, have high conductivity, while others, like brass, have lower conductivity due to "impurities" in the alloyed materials. Although silver is more conductive than copper, its high cost limits its use. In CP systems, linear voltage drops across materials like steel must be considered for efficiency. To learn more about how metal conductivity impacts corrosion control, check out page 9 of Farwest’s ebook: https://lnkd.in/geGknNhq #CorrosionControl #MetalConductivity #CathodicProtection

Congratulations to Gary Graham, P.E., on his promotion to Director of Engineering! We're pleased to announce that Gary has been promoted to lead our engineering team. His deep expertise in corrosion control and cathodic protection, plus his commitment to excellence, will help our customers and enhance our technical services across the company. Join us in congratulating Gary on his well-deserved new role—we’re excited for the future with him leading the way! #FarwestCorrosionControl #EngineeringLeadership #TeamFarwest #CathodicProtection #CorrosionControl

AC mitigation systems are essential to protect pipelines in AC corridors from the effects of induced AC corrosion. Proper AC mitigation strategies help reduce the risk of corrosion and protect infrastructure by managing AC interference through grounding systems, coatings and specialized equipment. These solutions ensure that corrosion prevention remains effective, extending the life of the pipeline and reducing maintenance costs. Contact a Farwest representative about effective AC mitigation strategies. #CorrosionControl #CathodicProtection #ACMitigation
