PRV Multibloc Valve Strange Noise

[Leaky Blinder]

Having a problem with a recent installation. Fitted new unvented cylinder and boiler. Everything fine for 6 months Then I get a call from my customer reporting a water hammer issue. I attend site and fit a shock arrestor. 2 days later he phones me back... still doing it. He says when you open a tap you get a pulsing sound. Like water hammer that that has a bouncing sound. I attend site again and find that the cold main is a little under supported and where it passes between the shelves it's banging against the wooden batton. This time I'm dead sure I've sussed it. I added some clips and even a small piece of lagging around where it passes through the shelf for good measure..... 2 days pass......phone rings!! Making the noise again. This time he sends a video along as well which I will post here if possible. I am at a loss as I haven't experienced this before (10 years in the trade).
If anyone knows or has seen this I would appreciate the help.
Thanks in advance!

Edit: I have since clipped the expansion vessel hose so it doesn't flap around like a wild gibbon. We've all done it 😉

Hard pipe the expansion vessel.

Hard pipe the expansion vessel.

Hmm not a bad idea actually I might give that a go. Iv'e tried moving the expansion vessel connection from the side of the multibloc to further down near the cylinder and still same issue

Agree with Simon hard pipe the expansion vessel fit a flow through valve we should all be fitting them as standard in my opinion , make sure your expansion vessel pressure is set 0.2 bar below your incoming pressure . Kop

Bump! Still having the same issue. I have returned to site before Christmas. Changed the prv for new and hard piped the exp. Said it was fine for a couple weeks and then the noise returns.
At this point I have no idea what to do. Weirdest issue I've ever had.

The hairpin bend a few inches from the multibloc looks a bit sinister to me. Maybe that's provoking the hammer?
