Solar Modules
Sharp’s solar modules, also known as solar electric PV, offer industry-leading performance and proprietary design.
They boast a high conversion efficiency—the percentage of sunlight that is
converted into energy for your use—to maximize your savings. And Sharp’s
triangular modules are ideal for multi-faceted roofs with many angles. By using
both rectangular and triangular modules, a Sharp system can be customized to maintain
the beauty of your home. Mounted with black frames, trim, and clamps, your solar
system will have the pleasing look of a high-tech skylight.

Solar Roof Tiles
These building-integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) modules are an exciting option for
residential roofing, both for new construction or refurbished roofs. Because Sharp's
Solar Rooftiles lay flatter on the rooftop than traditional solar PV panels, the aesthetics of the home are never
compromised. These modules replace existing roofing materials - with no roof penetration
necessary - and integrate smoothly by interlocking with traditional rooftiles. Plus,
their use of proprietary textured glass helps lead to the highest conversion efficiency
of any commercially available solar module.

Solar Power Monitor
Sharp’s solar power monitor displays current and cumulative readouts on electricity
generation, power consumption, and CO2 reduction levels so you can watch the environmental
benefits—and your savings—add up. Designed with a backlit LCD screen,
the monitor blends beautifully with your home’s décor.

Inverters
Introducing the latest addition to the Sunny Boy Family: the new Sunny Boy 3800U
PV inverter. Over two decades of engineering experience has culminated
with the creation of the SB3800U. Its new cast aluminum enclosure means lighter
weight and better heat transfer for sensitive components. New construction and design
techniques allow SMA to set the bar even higher when it comes to real-world efficiency
and overall reliability. The new silver color and near silent operation will please
even the most particular users. The new SB3800U, evidence that the pioneering spirit
is alive and well at SMA.
SMA’s new 3800 watt inverter processes solar energy at an unparalleled 95.6%
efficiency and is the first of a new generation of inverters by SMA to be released
in America. These new inverters incorporate a cast aluminum housing used to separate
the control and power electronics. This new chassis design is incredibly rugged,
lightweight and weatherproof. The power electronics compartment integrates SMA’s
new OpticoolTM airflow technology where cool air is drawn in through the bottom
of the enclosure by convection, drawn around the power electronics where the air
absorbs heat and is then released through a side vent. When required, this process
is assisted by a temperature controlled fan. The built in meter displays system
status as well as the solar energy being produced by the power plant and other key
information on the LCD screen. Several meter and software options are available
from your SMA supplier.

The SMA Sunny Boy inverter, the most popular grid-tied photovoltaic
inverter in Europe, is now UL 1741 Listed and available in North America. Sunny
Boy’s extensive track record in some of the world’s most demanding
markets has made it a favorite among PV professionals everywhere. Over 250,000 Sunny
Boy inverters have been installed worldwide. Superior design, rock-solid German
engineering and exceptional real-world efficiency have made Sunny Boy the top choice
for American solar designers.
Sunny Boy’s unsurpassed reliability and efficiency are the result of SMA’s
manufacturing philosophy that combines simple design with robust execution. SMA’s
state-of-the-art maximum power point tracking performance results in greater real-world
energy capture than any other grid-tied inverter. Sunny Boy’s safety and reliability
record is also exceptional due, in part, to the inverter’s redundant grid
monitoring and built-in ground fault detection and interruption protection. The
inverter’s IGBT power stage generates a nearly perfect sine wave with the
lowest harmonic distortion in the industry and meets ultra-strict FCC EMC standards.
SMA’s unique String Inverter technology makes future system expansion simple.
SMA advanced communication options are available to satisfy almost any application.
