The philosophy of STOPCOR was based on the ability to apply a sacrificial anode but with the method of impressed current. In the method of cathodic protection with STOPCOR, we impose a current that comes from the sacrificial anode, negatively charging the installation we want to protect. In this way, while the installation was previously the anode of a galvanic cell (negative oxidative pole), it becomes the cathode of an electrolytic cell (negative reductive pole). This means that the installation continues to be negatively charged as before the application of the protection, but the action is reversed and it tends to undergo reduction rather than oxidation.

- It is easily installed externally, without coming into contact with water. Consequently, it does not pollute it, does not create residues that clog installations and damage circulators and network components.
- No alterations are created in the liquids circulating within the installations.
- It protects pipes where drinking water circulates.
- It does not require special technical knowledge to install, does not require the unsealing of boilers, tanks, or other networks with the known sealing problems.
- It has excellent results because the imposed voltage is completely continuous and stable as it is naturally derived from magnesium.
- It has a greater range because it protects by imposing voltage on the installation.
- Its proper operation can be checked with a simple multimeter.
- It is economical.
- It is recyclable and completely safe for the environment.
STOPCOR is not affected by weather conditions nor does it affect anything nearby in any way. Each device has a lifespan of approximately 3 years depending on the specific case. After this period, replacement is required.
