SUNNY BOY 1300TL

SUNNY BOY 1300TL / 1600TL / 2100TL

Small inverters with big results

Combining a broad input voltage range and a broad input current range, the transformerless Sunny Boy can be connected to nearly all standard crystalline PV modules. As a proven entry-level device in the field of transformerless inverters, it offers topclass efficiency. Its low weight and robust enclosure allow simple installation, both indoors and outdoors. With its three power classes, it is the ideal inverter for smaller PV plants.

RS485 Piggy-Back

Plant monitoring and communication with Piggy-Back

The RS485 wiring for plant monitoring and communication allows functional lengths of up to 1200 meters. The Sunny WebBox collects all the data and informs you about the status of the PV plant. With Piggy-Back the data transmission is reliable even in interference-prone areas. Subsequent expansions are possible without problem thanks to the modular design principle.

Bluetooth interface Piggy-Back

WEBCONNECT

Ideally suited for online monitoring of small PV plants with a maximum number of up to four inverters: Webconnect provides free access to Sunny Portal without additional data logger – easily via an existing Internet access and a DSL router.
