SUNNY BOY 2000HF-US / 2500HF-US / 3000HF-US

Easy installation, simple communication and maximum performance

The new Sunny Boy high frequency inverters are designed for projects requiring UL certification and represent the next step in innovative SMA technology. Featuring world-class efficiency, a slim-line enclosure and reduced weight, the Sunny Boy HF series of inverters can be mounted in between wall studs, making it perfect for new construction or space-constrained retrofits. Installation is made simple by automatic grid detection*, field configuration for positive ground modules and a wide input voltage range of 175 to 600 V, which provides exceptional system design flexibility. The modern graphic display and wireless Bluetooth communication system provides a wealth of data in a user-friendly format.
