    • Ideal even for large Plants
    A Step into the Future
    The new Sunny Boy Control is a consequent continuation of the innovation concepts of module PV systems with Sunny Boy Strin inverters.

    Easy Handling
    The four key control of the menu system allows simple usage. Even without otherwise necessary intensive manual studies - each operation intuitively explains itself step by step.

    Flexible Power Management
    Sunny Boy Control allows to switch on or switch off electric consumers depending on the solar radiation or the time of day.

    PV Plant Optimization
    The Sunny Boy inverters internal parameters are accessible and can be modified in order to optimize the entire plant.

    The new Technology for the Monitoring of PV Plants

    Compact Design
    Sunny Boy Control is hardly larger than a book and installed in a compact metal case. It can be used stationarily as a desk or wall device or flexible as mobile commissioning controller

    Monitoring and Remote Diagnosis
    The PV plant is continuously monitored due to the permanent data acquisition. The Sunny Boy Control can automatically send a fax message to a specified address in case of a malfunction. Additionally the Sunny Boy Control can be configured to switch an external device (e.g. a siren) in order to signal malfunctions and therefore to avoid energy loss.

    Data from any Mains Socket via Powerline
    All Sunny Boys that are widely spread out over the PV-plant transmit their measured data via the powerline using their integrated modem. The Sunny Boy Control can be connected to any socket-outlet of the domestic mains in order to directly communicate with the inverters.

    A Device for an Plant Configuration
    A single Sunny Boy control can manage up to 35 Sunny Boy inverters which can have several different nominal powers. Several Sunny Boy Controls can easily be combined to a large scaled system due to the modules design. A PV-plant consisting of e.g. 150 Sunny Boy inverters can be monitored by 5 Sunny Boy Control units. which forward the data via RS485 or RS232 to a PC running Sunny Data Control. Due to the modular concept extending and enlarging the PV-plant is therefore simple and cost extensive due to the module system design.

    Comfortable Data Evaluation
    A four line LC display shows all data and status messages from the inverters and the entire plant.

    Easy Installation and Low Power Consumption
    After plugging the Sunny Boy Control to the socket outlet it automatically starts monitoring the PV-plant (Plug'n Play). Its internal power consumption is only 4 watts.

    PC Connection
    The acquired data can additionally be evaluated and visualized on a PV with the software package Sunny Data Control. The measured data can be saved to disk and subsequently processed or printed with Excel.

    Large External Display Interface
    The Sunny Boy Control is equipped with facilities that can supply an external display with current measured data via serial port.

    Other Interface Types
    In order to prevent disturbances due to difficult grid conditions (harmonic distortions, EMC, etc.) it is possible to connect the Sunny Boy Control and the inverters with a RS485 connection and this over a distance up to 1.2 km.
