Sunny Boy
The popular SMA Sunny Boy Inverters are available in sizes from 700 W to 10,000 W, and can be used in a wide range of applications from small residential systems to very large 3-phase industrial applications. All SMA inverters come standard with built-in LCD digital monitors that display instantaneous power output, the current day's power production, and the total energy produced since installation.
All SMA inverters are Listed to UL 1741, UL 1998 for the U.S. and Canada, and are compliant with IEEE-929, IEEE-1547, FCC Part 15 A & B and are covered by a standard 10-year warranty, with 5- and 10-year extensions available.
Sunny Boy SB700
The Sunny Boy SB700 has a 120 VAC output and three different configurable input voltage ranges. The 120 VAC output allows it to be used on 120/240 VAC systems as well as 208 VAC systems.
The operating voltage of typical 60-cell grid-tie modules is too low to make strings within the voltage and power input window of this inverter. It can be used with SANYO modules, many thin-film modules, and mono or poly-crystalline modules with 5" cells such as older 36 or 72-cell PV modules.
The SB700 is housed in a completely sealed NEMA 4 stainless steel enclosure. Outdoor installation is recommended for the sealed inverters so natural air-flow can cool the heat-sink.
Sunny Boy 2000HFUS / 2500HFUS / 3000HFUS
Featuring high efficiency, a slim-line enclosure and reduced weight, the Sunny Boy HF series of inverters can be mounted in between wall studs for new construction and space-constrained applications (requires flush-mounting installation frame). Installation is simplified by automatic grid voltage detection and field configuration for positive ground. An input voltage range of 175 to 600 VDC increases module selection and string sizing flexibility. The Sunny Boy HFUS series inverters also feature a modern graphic display, wireless Bluetooth communication system, and built-in DC disconnect switch.

Sunny Boy 3000US, 3800US, and 4000US
The compact Sunny Boy 3000US, 3800US, and 4000US inverters makes them suitable for residential and light commercial use and the integrated DC disconnect helps keep installations cost effective. They are field configurable for positive ground systems. The 3000US and 4000US are auto-sensing for use on 240 and 208 VAC applications. The 3800US is for 240VAC only, and is specifically sized for buildings with a 100A service entrance panel (16A max AC current). These inverters come with an integrated DC disconnect and fused 4-circuit series string combiner that can be used with fuses up to 20 A, and are shipped with 15 A fuses. Made in the USA.
Sunny Boy 5000US / 6000US / 7000US / 8000US
The Sunny Boy 5000US, 6000US and 7000US can be used in 208, 240 and 277 VAC applications. The 8000US can be used in 240 and 277 VAC applications. These inverters also come with a DC disconnect switch that connects to the bottom of the inverter. The disconnect has an integrated fused 4-circuit series string combiner that can be used with fuses up to 20 amps. The disconnect also has an input main lug for array DC input (to be used with a separate combiner box). They are shipped with 15-amp fuses. All four models are field-configurable for positive ground systems and made in the USA.

Sunny Boy 8000TL-US, 9000TL-US, and 10000TL-USThe Sunny Boy TL-US series inverters feature SMA's innovative H5 topology, resulting in superior efficiencies of up to 98 percent. The transformerless design reduces weight and cost. The Sunny Boy TL-US inverters are a good choice for commercial 208VAC three-phase applications of any size. They come with an integrated DC disconnect, but require a separate combiner box with fusing on both the positive and negative DC conductors.
Inverter dimensions (without DC disconnect) are 18.5"W x 24"H x 9"D. Weight of all models is 77 lbs. DC disconnect dimensions are 7'W x 12"H x 7.5"D. Weight of DC disconnect is 8 lbs.
