SUNNY BOY 8000TL-US / 9000TL-US / 10000TL-US

Transformerless design, maximum yields
The new Sunny Boy TL-US series is UL-listed for North America and features SMA’s innovative H5 topology, resulting in superior efficiencies of up to 98 percent and unmatched solar yields. The transformerless design reduces weight, increases the speed of payback and provides optimum value for any decentralized, commercial PV system. The Sunny Boy TL-US series for North America is the ideal choice for mid-size and large plants from 24 kWp up to the megawatt range.
