SMA’s 240-watt microinverter is now available to the North American residential solar market. The Sunny Boy 240-US offers leading efficiency, design flexibility, simplicity and module-level optimization, all backed by SMA’s unrivaled bankability and service support. It also features exclusive SMA Sunny Multigate technology, which maximizes system reliability.
With class-leading, 96-percent CEC efficiency, the Sunny Boy 240-US is ideal for residential systems and rooftops with complex, shaded situations. The system utilizes the Sunny Multigate-US, which enables greater energy production and superior reliability by mitigating the damaging effects of temperature-related stress commonly found under a module. This groundbreaking technology also increases communication reliability by keeping the powerline communications on a private band, which saves time by eliminating the need to install costly additional filters. It also provides advanced diagnostics for simplified installation and servicing.
“The Sunny Boy 240-US with Sunny Multigate technology is the most innovative microinverter on the market,” said Henry Dziuba, president and general manager of SMA America and president of SMA Canada. “Because it’s backed by SMA’s 30-year history, superior quality, exceptional warranty support and the industry’s top service team, the Sunny Boy 240-US is the best microinverter choice for system owners who expect a trouble-free solar experience.”
The Sunny Boy 240-US also boasts an improved cabling concept that eliminates the need for a trunk and branch cabling scheme, reducing system cost. Simple installation is achieved by pre-assembled AC plugs and connection cables used in a daisy chain configuration, as well as multiple DC connector options. Module-level, customized reporting is available via Sunny Portal, which offers remote monitoring via the Internet or iPhone and Android applications.
