SMA SB 5000US Sunny Boy 5300W Grid Tie Inverter

SUNNY BOY 5000US / 6000US / 7000US / 8000US

Profitable units with UL certification

Maximal energy yields for a continuously expanding solar market: the Sunny Boys with US certification are impressive due to their excellent efficiency. Additionally, they offer the highest degree of flexibility in plant design due to their graduated performance classes. The automatic grid voltage detection* allows easy and safe installation. Furthermore, the galvanic isolation provides flexible connection possibilities. This way, the Sunny Boy inverters can be used with crystalline cells, as well as with thin-film modules.
