Sunny Central CP-US
The Sunny Central CP-US is a family of SMA central PV inverters for the US and Canadian markets. The family covers the SC 500CP-US/CA, a 600V version of the 500CP-US/CA, and the 630, 720, 750, 800, 850 and 900CP-US/CA models. SMA lists this family among its past Sunny Central inverters, and its manuals are in the archived section of the SMA download area. The Sunny WebBox manual lists all Sunny Central devices under its SMA-NET communication setting. The SMA Hybrid Controller data sheet lists Sunny Central inverters as optional devices. According to SMA safety training for Sunny Central inverters, the DC link capacitors can stay charged after shutdown, so test for zero voltage between the DC switch and the inverter stacks. Before working inside the unit, isolate, lock out and test both AC sources (the grid and the auxiliary supply) and the DC source. Never pull DC fuses under load, because this can cause an arc flash.
<!-- review notes
- sentence 1: support check: partial - CP-US/CA models are listed as Sunny Central inverters from SMA, with US/CA in names, but 'family for US and Canadian markets' and central PV are not explicitly stated.
- sentence 5: support check: partial - Source says 'Hybrid Controller (optional): ... Sunny Central' but it's unclear it's a data sheet listing optional devices; the text is ambiguous.
- sentence 1: review: partial - The passage lists the SC 500CP-US/CA through 900CP-US/CA models among SMA's past Sunny Central inverters, but it never says they are PV inverters or that they target the US and Canadian markets. -->
