Have you isolated the battery charger output from the Sargent unit?

Sorry didn't realise I had a reply. What does the Sargent look like and where is it likely to be postioned please?

Thanks CAB took me a while for the penny to drop that the Sargent not needed to charge, it’s an AGM at the moment, I don’t do much off-grid camping but when it needs replacing will go lithium.

All, Sorry to jump on this thread, but thought it’d be a good place to store more knowledge / answers. I had a bit of an issue with my Sargent EC176. Have a feeling I left the inside light on for a week while I was in Spain. Control panel was beeping and showing no display. I’m now charging...

No, the fuse I mention is a 12v fuse - your need to wire the charger in downstream of the 240v RCD and MCB in the Sargent to do it safely. There shouldn't really be any connections in the cable between the EHU socket and the Sargent, and really it should be under 2m as it's not RCD protected...

Post in thread 'Fitting a battery charger with a Sargent EC155' Fitting a battery charger with a Sargent EC155 I actually successfully found something with the search function! o_O

Thanks guys. I will use 6mm cable for power wires for the 100/30 controller and a 40A fuse for that. I’m just using the existing wire that comes from the Sargent and think I will just use a 40A for it. Here’s my fuses in the Sargent. You think a 40A will be big enough?

Can you check the real van battery voltage rather than use the Sargent control panel?

Hi, Apologies if this has been asked before. We have a fully converted van fitted with the Sargent EC155 power control system so the electrics are pretty rudimental. We are planning to fit solar panels, a Victron DC-DC Charger and potentially and inverter charger with pass through function...

Hi, new to the forum and very new to campervanning. We have just bought a newly converted camper from a local company. We have taken out for a couple of drives to keep ticking over but recently when charging the leisure battery from mains the control panel alarm went off and hasn’t stopped...

Is it me or does every dead leisure battery problem involve a Sargent unit?

Doesn’t the red button switch on all mains so if this is left off you won’t get the Sargent mains charger charging the battery but you also won’t be able to use any mains outlets?

the red light for reverse polarity is on the sargent ec106 consumer unit in the campervan

its the red light on the sargent ec106 consumer unit inside the van

Does that not require changes to dc charger and Sargent unit dell

It also sounds like you have one of the Sargent type all in one systems? Some pictures of that and the wiring will help.

Hi all Sargent EC155 with EC51 display. Been hooked up to mains for 24H, Voltage level never goes above the second Amber light, 11.5-12.5V......Is this Correct/Normal?? Should the display ever go into the Green section?

I have a fairly standard new T6 conversion with a solar panel, CTEK 250SE & Sargent EC155 / EC51. It recently started to show a problem. When I switch the van electrics on via the EC51 control panel, sometimes it comes on perfectly, and sometimes comes on at low voltage (showing 6 -7 volts on a...

When I did my conversion I followed the circuit diagram from the manufacturer Sargent which showed 2 12 volt feeds from the leisure battery to the consumer unit,one for the fridge and one for everything else. Both of these feeds had an in line fuse between the battery and the consumer unit and...

Yes and I've contacted them. They say it was so long ago they don't have a record but they've been very helpful to be fair.
