SMA Sunny Beam Module plus Antenna
4/2007 This product has been discontinued - Sunny Beam software/chip issue
The National Electric Code (NEC) and UL 1741-2005 has triggered an industry wide redesign of all inverters. This redesign and release of new inverters has caused a redesign of the Sunny Beam.
The new Sunny Beam will NOT function correctly if at all with the old family of inverters (i.e. SB 700, 1100, 1800, 2100, 2500, 3300, 3800 and the old chassis 6000).
7/1/08 SMA reports best case availability for the new Sunny Beam is September or November 2008
This product works ONLY with the old SMA inverters
Introducing the new Sunny Beam wireless system monitor from SMA. Now you can remotely monitor the performance of your PV system - without wires. The new Sunny Beam displays real-time power output for the plant and up to 4 individual inverters numerically and graphically. It also stores a month’s worth of production data for review at any time. Its sleek design incorporates a solar cell to enhance battery performance and the large LCD screen displays key data at a glance. Easy to setup and use, the Sunny Beam takes the next step in monitoring convince.
Wireless System Monitoring for the home
Because the Sunny Beam can be placed anywhere within range of the inverters, from a desktop to the kitchen counter, system monitoring is now more convenient than ever. The Sunny Beam can monitor up to four inverters and provide simultaneous display of output power, daily energy, and energy total. The Sunny Beam automatically logs each day's energy production and displays it in graph format for the past thirty days. Based on the Energy Production of the PV plant, the Sunny Beam will also calculate the amount of CO2 and money that has been saved by the plant. The built-in solar cell keeps the internal batteries fully charged. The internal batteries may also be recharged via the built-in USB port. The Sunny Beam is compatible with both old and new Sunny Boys and is an excellent upgrade to an existing system. Data from the Sunny Beam can also be displayed and saved to a PC with Sunny Data Control software. The Sunny Beam menus are easily navigated with a simple selector knob. Its sleek design makes the Sunny Beam a welcome addition to any home or office, with system performance available at a glance - wirelessly.
