Question 359Motor Plants - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is C) direct the flow from the distillate pump. In the context of a US Coast Guard Captain's License Examination, item "10" shown in the illustration MO-0111 is likely a valve or piping component used to control and direct the flow of distillate (purified water) from the distillate pump. This is a critical function to ensure the proper operation and distribution of the distillate within the system. The other answer choices are incorrect because: A) regulating the flow from the drain pump is not the primary function of item "10"; B) reducing turbulence is not the main purpose of this component; and D) item "10" does not directly cancel the effects of improper regulation by device "11".
