Re: immersun repair -no.3

Hi Joe, I must admit it wasn’t easy to remove and I accidentally removed the copper eyelets by mistake. I thought I had done irreversible damage but after some research I learnt that you can replace the eyelets, which I did. At the time I was using a soldering iron to heat the solder and desolderin...

Re: immersun repair -no.3

Hi, I don’t have much electronics experience but have successfully managed to replace a few components on my Immersun unit. I’ve attached a couple of photos of the T1 transformer for reference, as you can see it has 6 prongs. The new transformer is on the left and you can see how it compares to the...

Re: immersun repair -no.3

Hi Joeirish, You are correct, the T1 transformers used in the Immersun Units were made in Italy. I found it impossible to source a replacement anywhere in the UK and after a lot of research I found the following supplier. The link also gives the part number you need. The price for the unit is the s...

I changed out the T1 transformer as advised by Marcus and I'm back in business, no more error 9 - low voltage. Thanks Marcus. Does anyone know about Solar iBoosts? i have one of those just failed too. Maybe I should start a new thread but it outputs 400 volts when it is supposed to be off and outpu...

Re: immersun repair -no.3

I would agree entirely. It’s not easy to identify the exact fault at the moment and I don’t have an in-depth knowledge of electronics, although I’m keen to learn. Im quite happy to leave it as it is and report back if anything changes. By the way I purchased two T1 transformers as they were only €8...

Re: immersun repair -no.3

I'm new on this forum but I have a related problem. I started to see an Error 9 Under Voltage message today. The unit had stopped working properly yesterday (not showing an input from the inverter or any export to the grid etc, pic attached) so today I did a factory reset. Then when I selected the h...
