Intended Use
The Sunny Home Manager is the central product responsible for energy management in households with a photovoltaics (PV) system and battery-storage system for self-consumption. The Sunny Home Manager continuously records the solar power generated by the PV system and, if desired, ensures optimal use of the solar power by combining all suitable energy flows in the household to create an intelligent system and, upon request, control it automatically.
The online portal Sunny Portal is used to operate and configure the Sunny Home Manager. The user can make all the required and desired settings here.
The Sunny Home Manager is not an energy meter for power consumption in the sense of the EU directive 2004/22/EG (MID). The Sunny Home Manager may not be used for billing purposes. The data collected by the Sunny Home Manager relating to the power generated by your PV system may deviate from the data of the main energy meter, which is used for billing purposes.
The Sunny Home Manager supports up to 24 devices and can actively control a maximum of 12 devices.
The Sunny Home Manager is not suitable for controlling life-sustaining medical devices. A power outage must not lead to personal injury. Loads connected to the Sunny Home Manager must have an CE, UKCA, RCM or UL identification label.
The Sunny Home Manager is approved for use in all EU member states, in Great Britain, Australia and selected other countries.
The type label must remain permanently attached to the product.
