Intended Use


The Sunny Tripower is a transformerless PV inverter with 12 MPP trackers that converts the direct current of the PV modules to grid-compliant three-phase current and feeds it into the utility grid.

The product is intended for use in industrial environments.

The product must only be accessible to qualified persons.

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 indoor and outdoor use.

All components must remain within their permitted operating ranges and their installation requirements at all times.

The product must only be used in countries for which it is approved or released by SMA Solar Technology AG and the grid operator.

The products by SMA Solar Technology AG are not suitable for use in

  • Medical devices, in particular products for supplying life-support systems and machines,

  • Aircraft, the operation of aircraft, the supply of critical airport infrastructure and airport systems,

  • Rail vehicles, the operation and supply of rail vehicles and their critical infrastructure.

The above list is not exhaustive. Contact us if you are unsure whether products by SMA Solar Technology AG are suitable for your application.

The documentation must be strictly followed. Deviations from the described actions and the use of materials, tools, and aids other than those specified by SMA Solar Technology AG are expressly forbidden.

Any use of the product other than that described in the Intended Use section does not qualify as appropriate.

The documentation supplied is an integral part of SMA products. Keep the documentation in a convenient, dry place for future reference and observe all instructions contained therein.

This document does not replace any regional, state, provincial, federal or national laws, regulations or standards that apply to the installation, electrical safety and use of the product. SMA Solar Technology AG assumes no responsibility for the compliance or non-compliance with such laws or codes in connection with the installation of the product.

The type label must remain permanently attached to the product.

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 18.75 μF.
