Multi Port Valve issues.
Anyone have any knowledge of the workings of the Multi Port valve, it’s on a E.A. Micro K1 Bead, not a valve unique to E.A. I have seen it on other bead filters.
Issue started a couple of days ago, noticed I was getting air in the pre filter in a gravity fed system, now today when doing a clean it doesn’t agitate the K1, it agitates for a few seconds the blows to waste, the sight glass never empties now, it’s always full of water, if I move the handle to filter it still wants to send some, not all water to waste, I now have about the same amount of water going to waste as the mains supply tops up the pond. I’ve resolved that issue with a tennis ball so it’s not sending any water to waste now.
I’ve had the top off the valve, nothing much to see their so cleaned and refitted. Just wondering is their any serviceable parts below and is their access beyond removing the top off the Multi Port Valve?
I’m guessing but I didn’t see any sign of a spider gasket, EA don’t list one, so next question which Multi Port valve is it as I expect a swimming pool filter will have the same Multi Port valve, but which one?

Yes, read that earlier hence thinking it was the spider gasket which seems bereft in mine.
Every day feeding container?
Good shout, I'll have a look at Takazumi :)
