Sunny Beam BT-11

The Sunny Beam BT-11 is a wireless monitoring device developed by SMA for photovoltaic installations, enabling users to track the performance of their solar system in real time. Compact and featuring an intuitive graphic display, the Sunny Beam BT-11 connects to SMA inverters via Bluetooth to provide production data, yield graphs, and malfunction alerts.

Key features of the Sunny Beam BT-11 :

1. Bluetooth wireless monitoring: This device connects to Bluetooth-enabled SMA inverters, enabling real-time wireless monitoring over a range of approximately 100 meters.
2. Backlit graphic display: The Sunny Beam BT-11 is equipped with a backlit LCD display that shows production data, yield curves, and performance statistics.
3. Malfunction alerts: In the event of a malfunction, the Sunny Beam emits visual and audible alarms, helping users to react quickly in the event of a problem.
4. Data storage:
5. The device can store up to 30 days of performance data, enabling trend analysis without constant connection.
6. Battery power: Battery-powered, it is portable and can be moved easily for convenient use in different locations.

Features and benefits of the Sunny Beam BT-11:

• Intuitive energy production monitoring: The BT-11 provides information on daily, monthly and annual production, as well as estimated savings.
• User-friendly interface: Users can view graphs and trends on the LCD screen, making it a simple and informative tool for monitoring performance.
• Alarms for proactive maintenance: Fault alerts enable rapid response, minimizing production losses.
• Easily portable: Thanks to its integrated battery, the Sunny Beam can be carried and used anywhere within range of the inverter.

Limits and ideal use:

The Sunny Beam BT-11 is ideal for small residential systems, as it is limited to connection with a single inverter and a relatively short Bluetooth connection range. For larger installations or remote monitoring, other solutions such as the Sunny WebBox or SMA online management systems may be more suitable.

All in all, the Sunny Beam BT-11 is a practical, portable device designed for owners of small photovoltaic systems who want an intuitive, wireless monitoring solution.
