Systems
Ball Valves
Ball valves can be used to serve several purposes. They allow
seawater to enter the boat, in the case of livewells, and they
also act as a safeguard to stop water from entering. To tell
which position a ball valve is in, open or closed, look at the
valve and determine the direction of flow. When the ball
valve handle is in the same position as the direction of flow,
the valve is in the “OPEN” position. When the ball valve
handle appears to cross the direction of flow, the valve is in
the “CLOSED” position.
Redfisher 16 Livewell Pump Assembly
The livewell pump assembly is composed of a scoop
strainer mounted to the bottom of the hull, a thru hull
fitting, ball valve assembly, and the pump. As you can
see, the ball valve assembly is in the “OPEN” position.
This is the correct position for the operation of the
livewell.
