Depending on what you're doing, Access may be assuming am/pm stuff.

To PostgreSQL, 4:00:00 is 4am, of course; whereas 16:00:00 is 4pm.

It's hard to know the context, but you may want to use Access's format()
function to either convert to 24hr time or insure the AM/PM is actually
getting passed to PostgreSQL.
