By: SMA America and SMA Canada “The ability to mix-and-match Sunny Boy inverters with the Sunny Tower increases design flexibility while providing leading reliability and world-class efficiencies,” In addition to providing an exceptional degree of design flexibility and an increased energy harvest, the Sunny Tower allows installers to apply a decentralized approach to commercial systems, which results in less labor, reduced DC cabling, and lower operation and maintenance costs. Sunny Tower features include a sealed electronics enclosure and rugged stainless-steel, outdoor-rated structure; Opticool™ temperature management system; and a modular design that eliminates the need for cost-prohibitive heavy machinery for installation. Prewired for three-phase utility interconnection, it has an integrated load-break-rated lockable AC/DC disconnect switch and fused-series string combiner. A 10-year warranty also is included. The Sunny Boy 5000-US, 6000-US, 7000-US and 8000-US inverters offer class-leading efficiencies up to 97 percent. Their longevity is enhanced via SMA’s patented OptiCool™ active temperature- The Sunny Tower can be paired with the Sunny WebBox data logger, which tracks system performance. That data can then be transmitted by cable to the free SMA Sunny Portal, the world’s largest Web platform for monitoring, managing and presenting photovoltaic systems.
