Sunny Boy 6000US

The Sunny Boy 5000US, 6000US and 7000US represent our larger units in the new “US” series of Sunny Boy string inverters. They are extremely robust inverters equally suited for large residential or commercial applications. Completely updated with our most advanced technology, they were designed specifically to meet the new IEEE 1547 requirements. The larger inverters of the new US series come with an integrated AC and DC disconnect switch making installation even more cost-effective. They can even be configured for positive ground systems in the field making them more versatile than ever. Increased efficiency means better overall performance and shorter payback periods. The Sunny Boy 6000US and 7000US are compatible for use with the Sunny Tower 36 kW and 42 kW systems. Each comes with a standard ten year warranty and are engineered and built to provide years of trouble-free service.

SMA is proud to introduce our new line of inverters updated with our latest technology and designed specifically to meet the new IEEE 1547 requirements. It is also compatible with SMA's new Sunny Tower. Increased efficiency means better performance and shorter payback periods. All three models are field-configurable for positive ground systems making them more versatile than ever. With over 500,000 fielded units, Sunny Boy has become the benchmark for PV inverter performance and reliability throughout the world.
