SUNNY SENSORBOX

SUNNY SENSORBOX

The weather station for PV systems

The Sunny SensorBox is installed directly onto solar modules and measures irradiation and temperature. In combination with Sunny WebBox and Sunny Portal, it provides continuous meteorological and power production data. This makes it possible to detect shade, dirt, and gradually declining array performance, providing security against lost yield. An optional sensor to measure of ambient temperature or wind speed provides even more data.
