"WARNING", and "DANGER" headings within this manual is not intended to
cover all applicable safety policies, and instead acts as a supplement to the
comprehensive safety information provided.
● Follow local laws and regulations when operating the equipment. The safety
instructions in this document are considered supplementary to local laws and
regulations.
● Do not operate the equipment or cables during thunderstorms.
● Before operating the product, remove any conductors such as jewelry or
watches.
● Use insulated tools during operations.
● Tighten screws using a torque wrench, and mark them in red and blue for
double-check. Installation personnel should mark tightened screws in blue.
Inspection personnel should conrm that the screws are tightened and then
mark them in red. If screws or bolts used to secure the equipment are not
tightened to the required torque, the equipment may fall o the mounting
kits.
● Follow specied procedures during installation and maintenance. Do not
modify the equipment structure or the recommended installation procedures
without prior consent from the manufacturer.
● Install the product in strict accordance with the quick guide.
Declaration
Huawei will not be liable for any consequences in any of the following
circumstances:

● Reserve appropriate clearances around the optimizer for installation and heat
dissipation.
Electrical Connections
D ANGER
Before connecting cables, ensure that the optimizer is not damaged. Otherwise,
electric shocks or re may occur.
SUN2000 Smart PV Optimizer
User Manual 1 Safety Precautions
Issue 03 (2022-09-20) Copyright © Huawei Digital Power Technologies Co., Ltd. 2

● Ensure that all electrical connections comply with local electrical standards.
● Ensure that the cables used in a grid-tied PV power system are properly
connected and insulated and meet specications.
● The output wiring terminals of the optimizer are not hot-swappable. If the
terminals are hot-swapped, the optimizer may be damaged.
Operation
D ANGER
High voltage from the optimizer in operation may cause an electric shock,
resulting in serious property damage, injury, or death. Strictly comply with the
safety precautions in this document and other related documents when operating
the optimizer.
● Do not touch the optimizer in operation as its surface temperature is high and
may cause burning.
● When operating the equipment, comply with local laws and regulations.
Maintenance and Replacement
D ANGER
High voltage from the optimizer in operation may cause an electric shock,
resulting in serious property damage, injury, or death. Before maintenance, power
o the optimizer and strictly comply with the safety precautions in this document
and other related documents when operating the optimizer.
● Maintain the optimizer with proper understanding of this document and
appropriate tools and testing equipment.
● Place temporary warning signs or erect fences to prevent unauthorized access
to the maintenance site.
● The optimizer can be powered on only after all faults are rectied. Otherwise,
faults may escalate or equipment may be damaged.
● Observe ESD precautions and wear ESD gloves during maintenance.

2 Product Introduction
2.1 Overview
The smart PV optimizer is a DC to DC converter which implements maximum
power point tracking (MPPT) of each PV module to improve the energy yield of
the PV system. It enables module-level shutdown and monitoring, and supports
long-string design.
Functions and Features
● Module-level MPPT: Implements maximum power point tracking of each PV
module to improve the energy yield of the PV system.
● Module-level shutdown: Adjusts the module output voltage to a safe range
when the output is disconnected or the inverter shuts down.
● Module-level monitoring: Monitors the operating status of each PV module.
● Long PV string supported: If all PV modules are congured with optimizers, a
PV string can contain more PV modules than conventional PV strings.
Model
This document involves the following product models:
● SUN2000-600W-P (Long input cable / Short input cable)
● SUN2000-450W-P
● SUN2000-450W-P2
