Specifications
Product Description
The SMA Sunny Tripower 8kW STP8.0-3AV-40 Three-Phase Solar Inverter is designed for homes and small businesses with a 3×400 V grid to achieve maximum performance from their panels. With a maximum efficiency of 98.3%, IP65 enclosure, and “plug & play” commissioning via integrated web interface (WLAN/Ethernet), this string inverter offers an outstanding combination of power, reliability, and ease of use. Its 2 MPPT (input A with up to 2 strings and input B with 1 string) allow optimization of rooftops with different orientations or inclinations. The OptiTrac Global Peak shading management and compatibility with TS4-R module optimizers help maintain production under real conditions.
Main Features
