SMA's new Sunny Boy 3800U PV inverter now comes with a DC disconnect and 4-string fused combiner - standard. Over two decades of engineering experience has culminated
with the creation of the SB3800U. Its new cast aluminum enclosure means lighter weight and better heat transfer for sensitive components. New construction and design techniques allow SMA to set the bar even higher when it comes to real-world efficiency and overall reliability. The new silver lid and near silent operation will please even the most particular users. The new SB3800U, evidence that the pioneering spirit is alive and well at SMA.
SMA’s new 3800 watt inverter processes solar energy at an unparalleled 95.6% efficiency and is the first of a new generation of inverters by SMA to be released in America. These new inverters incorporate a cast aluminum housing used to separate the control and power electronics.
This new chassis design is incredibly rugged, lightweight and weatherproof. The power electronics compartment integrates SMA’s new OpticoolTM airflow technology where cool air is drawn in through the bottom of the enclosure by convection, drawn around the power electronics where the air absorbs heat and is then released through a side vent.
When required, this process is assisted by a temperature controlled fan. The built in meter displays system status as well as the solar energy being produced by the power plant and other key information on the LCD screen. Several meter and software options are available from your SMA supplier.
