Re: Problem with the fresh water preassure switch
Hi Paul,
we changed the pressure switch once on Noa, SM2K 436, because the contacts became worn. It is an industrial standard model and sold all over the world, Square D, the company is Schneider

Hi Paul,
Ours was sticking in the on position (not off). I sprayed a tiny bit of silicon wd-40 on it and checked/adjusted the pressure setting. Since then it's been working perfectly again. I ordered

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Batteries - What type house batteries to use & what voltage charge from Solar/Wind?
Hmmm, thanks Bill. Yes, I disconnected each battery from the others for testing, and discharged the "surface charge" with a 12v light before testing.
I guess I should read about the discharge

Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Batteries - What type house batteries to use & what voltage charge from Solar/Wind?
Hi Kent
do you have the original Amel set up for your 8 115 AH Batteries Bank?
The floating Voltage should be 27.2 -27.3 V when Engine, Genset or Landpower or with the 24 V Alternator when motoring

You are probably right about the dimensions, we now have a 12 mm Marlow Dynnema. And today we sailed upwind in 22 knot wind with no problems but I had to tension the line

Did you totally disconnect each battery when testing it? Also, I think I read somewhere that when testing batteries they should be off of the charger for 30 minutes. I am not sure about this, but this
