A custom machined copper bolt terminal is mounted through the side of the tank to attach the sacrificial anode plate to the positive lead of the power supply, while the negative lead is clamped to the rusty steel to be cleaned.
After the rewinding the transformer outputs about 13 VAC, which is then run through beefy bridge rectifier modules to get a DC current. The secondary coil is removed and replaced with coil of thick insulated wire, to convert it into a step down transformer. The high current, low voltage power supply that is required for the process was built using an old microwave transformer. He obviously put some thought into how the tank will be cleaned, since it can be removed by unscrewing six bolts and removing the top part of the frame. started with an old plastic container, around which he built a very neat trolley frame. The projects gets himself into tend to involve a lot of steel, so he built his own electrolysis tank for rust removal.Įlectrolytic rust removal involves placing the piece of steel to be cleaned into an alkaline electrolyte solution (water and washing soda) with a sacrificial steel anode and connecting a low voltage DC supply over the two pieces. While welding requires only a bit of wire brushing at the joint areas, cleaning a large frame for paint is a completely different story. Anyone who’s done a bit of metalworking will know how quickly your stockpile will pick up a coating of rust with even just a bit of humidity.
