SunWize Power & Battery
SunWize Power & Battery Power Ready Systems are stand-alone systems using solar technology to provide con-
tinuous and reliable power to remote site loads. There’s no need to connect to utility power. SunWize systems are

designed for site loads requiring 12 VDC, 24 VDC, or 48 VDC, or 110 V to 240 V, 50 Hz/60 Hz AC. The systems pro-
