90/10 Copper Nickel Alloy Wire
90/10 Copper Nickel Alloy (C70600 )Wire has excellent resistance to corrosion and bio fouling in sea water which make it an ideal material for the large scale development of underwater pens and enclosures. Thus this adds a new dimension to fish farming.
The biotical properties of the 90/10 copper-nickel alloy surface help to prevent fouling of fish cages fabricated from woven wire or expanded mesh. There is no extra uptake or accumulation of copper by the fish. They are as palatable as those grown naturally and appear to grow more rapidly than fish reared in cages of other material.
Nickel copper alloy, sometimes called Cupronickel is basically an alloy of copper which contains nickel and other strengthening materials such as iron and manganese. Because of its fantastic electrode potential, this alloy is used for sea water installations and machines. Nickel wire and
nickel alloy are now broadly utilized in manufacturing underwater piping, heat exchangers and condensers for shipping industry. Nickel Copper alloy is highly resistant to corrosion, which is the main reason for metal decay under sea water. As its electrode potential is adjusted to be neutral with regards to the sea water, this alloy can be safely used for those machines and instruments which are used under sea.

1. Offshore Fire Water Systems
Sea water deluge fire extinguishing systems in copper-nickel have been selected for offshore platforms over many years.Good thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance to the sea water flow rates required have allowed copper-nickel tube to remain an established alloy where high reliability is called for.
2. Sea Water Intakes
Fouling on intakes and intake screens can restrict water flow and if detached cause blockages to heat exchangers or cause mechanical damage to pumps and valves. Copper-
nickel with its high resistance to macrofouling can be very beneficial in this application.
