SMA America Debuts Sunny Boy 6000U Inverter

SMA America Inc. (Grass Valley, CA) announced the latest addition to its line of Sunny Boy inverters, the Sunny Boy 6000U, which has a peak efficiency of 95.3% and can handle photovoltaic (PV) systems that in the past took multiple Sunny Boys. The Sunny Boy 6000U makes it practical to install much larger systems while retaining many of the advantages of the modular inverter concept. Large home and small-to-medium commercial systems are suitable candidates for the Sunny Boy 6000U.

Built for either indoor or outdoor use, the inverter features field-configurable outputs, making it possible to stock a single unit for use with 208 Vac, 240 Vac or 277 Vac systems. The wide dc input-voltage range also permits connection to almost any type of PV modules. The 6000U includes an onboard LCD display as well as a separate serial interface to allow remote monitoring using the same communication accessories as all inverters in the Sunny Boy family.
