Intended Use
The Sunny Highpower is a transformerless PV inverter. It converts the direct current from the PV modules into grid-compliant three-phase current and feeds it into the utility grid via a separate transformer.
With the Sunny Highpower 100 it is possible to feed the three-phase current directly into the low-voltage grid while complying with the locally applicable connection requirements.
The product is intended for use in industrial environments.
The product complies with EN 55011 of class A, group 1:
a.c. mains power port: ≤ 20 kVA
d.c. power port: > 75 kVA
Electromagnetic radiation disturbance: ≤ 20 kVA
In accordance with EN 55011, the product must only be operated at locations where the distance between the product and third-party radio-communication installations is greater than 30 m.
This product is not intended for use in residential environments and may not provide adequate protection to radio reception in such environments.
The product is suitable for operation in a chemically active environment in accordance with IEC 60721-3-4 as per Class 4C2.
The product is suitable for indoor and outdoor use.
When used indoors, the ventilation system at the installation site must be able to dissipate the power loss that occurs.
The product must only be operated with PV modules of protection class II in accordance with IEC 61730, application class A. The PV modules must be compatible with this product.
The product may only be operated in connection with a suitable medium-voltage transformer. The low-voltage side must be configured in a star formation and the neutral point must be grounded (for information about the requirements of the medium-voltage transformer, consult the technical information "Important Requirements for Medium-Voltage Transformers" under www.SMA-Solar.com).
The product is not equipped with an integrated transformer and therefore has no galvanic isolation. The product must not be operated with PV modules whose outputs are grounded. This can cause the product to be destroyed. The product may be operated with PV modules whose frame is grounded.
PV modules with a high capacity to ground must only be used if the coupling capacity of all PV modules does not exceed 32 μF.
All components must remain within their permitted operating ranges and their installation requirements at all times.
