SMA Tripower CORE1: the ideal inverter for commercial PV plants
Discover the three-phase inverter that simplifies installation and maximises efficiency: SMA Tripower CORE1
The Sunny Tripower CORE1 is the SMA inverter designed for commercial systems that require flexibility, speed of installation and maximum performance .
With its self-supporting design and integrated technologies, it represents a complete solution for systems on flat roofs, ground systems or photovoltaic canopies .
Innovative design and simplified installation
The CORE1 is the world's first free-standing string inverter : does not require external support structures, reducing assembly times and costs up to 60% .
A simple substructure is sufficient to install it stably and safely, making it ideal for projects of any size.
Installation examples
1. Installation on a flat roof : shows several CORE1 units side by side, integrated into a system with photovoltaic modules on a flat roof.
2. Close-up view in open field : Highlights the self-supporting design of the CORE1 inverter, placed directly on a flat surface without additional supports.
3. Roof or ground installation : another example with a CORE1 unit mounted, probably for testing or early commissioning.
Performance and flexibility
Rated power: up to 50 kW (STP50-41)
Maximum PV input: up to 75 kWp (upgradable up to +150%)
Maximum efficiency: 98.7%
Entrances: 12 DC strings with 6 independent MPPTs
Network Protection: compliant with VDE-AR-N-4105
Reduction of BOS and OPEX costs
Thanks to the independent management of the 6 MPPTs, the CORE1 ensures optimal production even in the presence of partial shading or modules on multiple orientations .
