HISWA, the Dutch marine association, represents the gamut of water sport businesses in The Netherlands and is associated with promoting highest standards of safety, quality and environmental friendliness. The annual HISWA innovation award is designed to encourage and showcase state-of-the-art consumer products. A jury of distinguished representatives of the Dutch marine field, including designers, editors, and university professors assess products for specific attributes: the winning product must be of importance to consumers and currently available for purchase, and it will demonstrate innovation, wide applicability and affordability. The Tru-Design position-monitored ball valve won out of 60 entries this year. Sensors fitted to the valves which can be connected to a monitor, enable remote indication of the current position of a valve – open or closed. The valves can also be wired to disable the engine start sequence if the seacock is closed, thus helping to avoid possible engine overheating caused by accidental or inadvertent water intake closure. The valves can in fact be used for a variety of applications as they come in five different sizes.
