Sunny Central UP
SMA’s most powerful system with an output power of up to 4,600 kVA for large-scale PV plants offers the advantage of 17% to 54% fewer inverter units. You will benefit from cost reductions on transportation, installation, commissioning and service.
SUNNY CENTRAL 1850-US / 2200-US / 2500-EV
The Sunny Central inverter, with 1,850 kVA or 2,200 kVA for 1,000 VDC and 2,475 kVA for 1,500 VDC (at 25°C), enables even more efficient PV power plant designs. The flexibility of this inverter allows for implementation with a variety of modules. The integrated power supply transformer and installation area provide an ideal environment for integration of needed customer equipment. Suitable for any outdoor climate around the globe, this new Sunny Central is equipped with OptiCool, a proven air-cooling technology that ensures smooth operation under extreme environmental conditions.
