Product: Sunny 

Island

Type:

SI 3324, SI 4248

We declare that the above specified device is compliant with the regulations of the European
Community, in terms of the design and the version fabricated by SMA. This especially applies
for the EMC Regulation defined in 89/336/EWG and the low voltage regulation defined in
73/23/EWG.

The device is compliant with the following standards:

DIN EN 50178 (04.98) (VDE 0160)
DIN EN 61000-3-2: 2001-12 (in charging operation)
DIN EN 61000-6-1: 2002-08
DIN EN 61000-6-2: 2002-08
DIN EN 61000-6-3: 2002-08
DIN EN 61000-6-4: 2002-08

The above mentioned device is therefore marked with a CE sign.

Note:
This declaration of conformity becomes invalid in case 
·

the product is modified, complemented or changed,

·

and/or components, other than those belonging to the SMA accessories, are installed in the product,

·

as well as in case of incorrect connection or inproper usage 

without explicit written confirmation by SMA.
