SMA America Sets a New Standard with the Sunny Boy 6000

SMA America is as proud as a new parent over the latest addition to
their line of Sunny Boy Inverters, the Sunny Boy 6000.

"It's our newest baby, and we're really excited about its excellent
performance and affordability." says Sam Vanderhoof, Director of Local
and International Marketing.

The Sunny Boy 6000U has a peak efficiency of 95.3% and can handle PV
systems that in the past took multiple Sunny Boys. A single larger unit
helps to reduce installation costs, and when the lower cost-per-Watt is
factored in, says Vanderhoof, "this is a smart investment for a wide
range of solar energy users." The Sunny Boy 6000U makes it practical to
install much larger systems while retaining many of the advantages of
the modular inverter concept. Large home and small to medium commercial
systems are ideal candidates for the Sunny Boy 6000U.

Built for either indoor or outdoor use, the inverter features field
configurable outputs making it possible to stock a single unit for use
with 208, 240, or 277 Vac systems. The wide DC input voltage range also
permits connection to almost any type of PV modules. The 6000U includes
an onboard LCD display as well as a separate serial interface to allow
remote monitoring using the same communication accessories as all
inverters in the Sunny Boy family.

SMA America, located in Grass Valley, California, is the North American
division of SMA Regelsysteme GmbH (SMA). SMA America was established in
2000 to provide its industry-leading Sunny Boy PV string inverters to
the North American market.
