SMA Smart Connected — How it Works

 

Activation of SMA Smart Connected

During registration of the system in Sunny Portal, you, as the installer, activate SMA Smart Connected and thus start automatic inverter monitoring by SMA.

 

Automatic inverter monitoring

SMA automatically checks the inverter for anomalies around-the-clock during operation. You and your customers benefit from SMA’s many years of experience.

Proactive communication

After a fault has been diagnosed and analyzed, SMA informs the installer and PV system operator immediately by email. Everyone is thus optimally prepared for the troubleshooting process ensuring minimum downtimes and reducing outlay and costs. The regular power reports also provide the installer with valuable information about the overall system.

Replacement Service

If a replacement device is necessary, SMA automatically supplies a new inverter within one to three days of the fault diagnosis. As the installer, you can contact the PV system operator of your own accord and replace the inverter immediately.

 

Performance Service

SMA compensates PV system owners if the replacement inverter cannot be delivered within three days.

 

SMA Smart Connected is available in AU, AT, BE, CH, DE, ES, FR, IT, LU, NL, UK

 

SMA Sunny Tripower 6.0 – STP6.0-3AV-40 three phase solar inverter – higher yields for private homes – intelligent solar power generation

Intelligent Solar Power Generation

The Sunny Tripower has it all, with established product features such as OptiTrac Global Peak and SMA Smart Connected that are now supplemented with integrated TS4-R communication for module optimization. Thanks to this, even shade on the module is no problem. The OptiTrac Global Peak integrated shade management system ensures maximum yields in light shade. For large amounts of shade or complex roof structures, TS4-R module optimizers can be installed easily and selectively for maximum yields.
The free SMA Smart Connected service analyzes inverter operation, immediately informs the installer of irregularities and offers recommended solutions to ensure maximum system availability. Operators and installers can keep an eye on the system at all times via the SMA monitoring portals. Thanks to the TS4-R module optimizer, it is even possible to monitor every single module upon request.

• Integrated SMA Smart Connected service
• Integrated shade management with OptiTrac Global Peak and TS4-R communication
• Free online monitoring via Sunny Portal and Sunny Place
• Dynamic active power limitation
