Multicluster-Boxes

Simple setup of stand-alone and hybrid systems

Large off-grid systems with only a little effort: the new Multicluster Boxes for the Sunny Island 5048 are the ideal solution for the easy installation of stand-alone and hybrid systems from 30 to 100 kW. For this, two to four 3-phase clusters, each consisting of 3 Sunny Islands, are connected in parallel. Multicluster Boxes were specially developed for these systems as the AC main distribution unit with integrated generator and load contactors. To simplify installation, all Multicluster Boxes are completely wired and fitted at the factory with a main connector for PV or wind generators. All communication cables necessary for the installation are included with standard delivery.
