Water filter / pressure valve

I think you are referring to the whale pressure switch that controls the operation of the pump in the fresh water tank that does 'chatter' in certain circumstances.  There is no filter in this part of the system other than the water inlet cover of the submerged pump.  The video linked above shows how to clean the non-return valve in the pressure switch.

The operation of the pressure switch is voltage dependant.  If adjusted as whale describe, you will get the best compromise in operation between a part discharged leisure battery to when the battery is being charged on EHU.

Thank you Peter you are correct I am talking about the pressure switch. Your chart was very helpful and I have now adjusted the valve as advised. Regrettably the fault still remains. Further research indicates that there is an umbrella type seal in the valve which can get clogged with debris. I am on a site at the moment and will put up with the noise until I get home when I will have a better opportunity of cleaning the valve

Thanks again for your advice.
