HYDRA ZODIAC

Aesthetic by design...

THE sleek and stylish HYDRA ZODIAC has been designed specifically for the UK EV home-charging market - IP65 weatherproofing to prevent dust and water ingress as well as UV protection - but it also has a commercial sibling which can take advantage of a three-phase power grid to deliver a charging output of upto 22kW.

The Hydra Zodiac is a very affordable, lower cost option for the discerning EV owner as it offers a simpler installation without the need for an additional earthing rod and can be

connected directly to the main consumer unit to give 7kW of smart charging power, either with an open socket to attach the cable that came with your EV or as a tethered design which includes a 4.8m cable. (Cables are also available separately if you wish to keep one at home as well as in the boot of your car)

The RESIDENTIAL 7KW HYDRA ZODIAC can communicate with our HYDRA HOME APP to commence and monitor EV charging with times optimised to take full advantage of low-cost energy tariffs offered by some utility

Dual Power, Fast Charging

THE Hydra JOVI was designed and produced in response to customer demand for a wall-mounted Hydra Genesis alternative –our best-selling commercial, workplace and destination charging station.

While offering the same dual-output charging – either 7kW or 22kW – the housing is much more compact and suitable for wall mounting. Making it ideal for locations where space is a premium and a standalone totemdesign, similar to the Genesis, is not suitable.

Wall mounting an EV chargepoint can also significantly reduce the installation costs as no major infrastruc ture work is required, other than installing the power cables to the chargepoints. Therefore the Hydra JOVI is perfect for covered car parks and parking spaces alongside a building or other solid structure.

Being dual output, only one JOVI is required to serve two EV parking spots, further reducing costs and streamlining the installation process. The smaller form-factor of the JOVI does

not impact the robust construction and reliability, nor does it limit the power and flexibility of the EV charging functions. The housing is metal, similar to our Genesis, to ensure many years of prolonged use.

Available in either dual 7kW or dual 22kW output versions. The 22kW unit offers faster charging for electric vehicles which can

accommodate a higher level of AC charge input and can be connected to any threephase 400v AC supply, similar to that which can be found in larger industrial premises, hotels and office blocks.

Charging a standard EV at 22kW can add up to 90 miles of range for each hour of charging, making this perfect for vehicles which are parked for longer periods, such as during the working day or at a hospitality venue.

The tethered unit – complete with 5m charging leads and industry standard Type-2 charging guns – ensures the JOVI is always ready to charge. The socket-only versions require the EV driver to use their own charging cables. The Jovi can be commissioned to allow access to the charging functions in a variety of ways: Plug and Charge, RFID card, Scan and Pay or Contactless Payment Terminal.

The Hydra JOVI has built-in safety functions which can shut down the charger if it detects input under voltage, input overvoltage, output short-circuit, output overvoltage, output over-current, battery reverse connection, insulation detection, communication failure, etc. Additionally there is an optional fail-safe emergency stop button which can be manually operated in the event of a failure.

CONTACTLESS PAYMENTS

WITH public EV charging becoming increasingly accessible it brings with it an abundance of apps and web portals in order to capture payments from EV drivers. Before you know it you could have a dozen apps relating to numerous different Chargepoint brands and it all becomes a bit overwhelming.

Hydra EVC is proud to partner with world leading companies to offer a simple, streamlined payment process, so the only thing your EV customers need to worry about is how to occupy themselves while they get a quick charge in.

We support two payment methods on our chargepoints: The conventional ‘Scan & Pay’ method will prompt the EV driver to scan a QR code which takes them to a virtual payment page on their phone allowing them to make payment with any credit or debit card online. This solution is functional, however if the EV user does not own a smart device, has no signal or smart phone battery it leaves them without a method to pay.

The second option is our intelligently designed PENSIO contactless payment system. Our chargepoints benefit from contactless direct payment using a debit card, credit card or virtual wallet payment method such as Apple Pay or Google Pay.

This turn-key solution will allow EV users the freedom to use either a physical or virtual

payment, increasing your potential visitor charging sessions, which in turn offers more consistent revenue from your public charge points.

Maximise revenue from your chargepoints by allowing EV drivers to find and use them: Hydra chargepoints can be switched from private to public at the flick of a switch.

If your chargers are not in use outside of business hours or you simply want to charge your visitors for charging at your sites, all of this can be managed through the Hydra NEXUS online platform.

PENSIO can be built into your chargepoint so all that is required is installation of your chargepoint and commissioning by our friendly Hydra Approved installation partners. This does incur additional charges for commissioning and maintenance of your PENSIO device.

As client payment information is highly sensitive Hydra Nexus or whichever back office platform you choose to integrate with handles all all of transactions directly, capturing and depositing payments directly into your nominated account (the exact fulfilment process is dependent on the management platform).

The costs are as follows:

From £30 per connector per year

DYNAMIC LOAD BALANCING Commercial Dynamic Load Management...

LOAD balancing the power distribution for a multi-chargepoint installation is essential to optimise the charging output of each chargepoint and monitoring the overall power usage for the site.

Dynamically managing the power load can reduce expensive infrastructure and power capacity upgrades allowing a site to operate safely and efficiently within the available power limits.

Our commercial DLB solution can be integrated with our unique HYDRA NEXUS cloud-based EVC management platform to constantly monitor the power being drawn by each chargepoint in real-time, communicate that to the cloud, and seamlessly distribute the total available power in a few miliseconds according to requirements.

The DLB communicates via OCPP compliant protocols via a wired (RJ45 Ethernet) connection or wirelessly using a 4G data SIM.

The wireless option also reduces installation costs and time by removing the requirement for a fixed comms line. This could be a crucial feature in multi-chargepoint installations where physical access to a router or communication hub is not available.

To keep power consumption within the limits of each site the DLB will prioritise charging power between each charger and optimise output to ensure that each EV is adequately charged.

If a number of EVs are plugged in at once the power to individual EVs can be reduced once they reach 80% to maximise power delivered to an EV on a lower level of charge.

Domestic DLB...

THE Hydra Domestic Load Balancing Unit (DLB) intelligently monitors energy consumption and generation (if solar panels are used) for the whole household.

Dynamically monitoring total energy usage around the home the Hydra DLB can optimise the power used by the Zodiac EV chargepoint to ensure total safety for the house and prevents overloading.

As it can also monitor energy generated from a solar PV array and domestic electricity storage batteries, the power grid within the household can be adjusted and optimised to get the best use from the available energy sources. Taking energy direct from the PV inverter when required rather than the consumer unit.

Solar integration... A

LTHOUGH the Hydra DLB has been developed for use as a load balancing facility it is also perfect for use where the household may have Solar Panels and/or battery storage.

The DLB connects to the main electric feed from the consumer unit using a CT clamp. If the house also has a solar PV array it also connects to the output of the inverter. The DLB then communicates wirelessly with the Zodiac chargepoint to optimise EV charging power.

The DLB can monitor electrical power consumption across the whole house including energy drawn from a battery storage system or generated from a Solar PV array. Prioritising energy from renewables to charge an EV allows the owner to minimise the environmental impact of their car.

Genesis EVC Foundation

Designed and manufactured in the UK from coated steel the Genesis EVC foundation offers a simple pre-fabricated but precisionengineered solution for installing a Hydra Genesis EV charge point.

This EVC foundation has very compact and flush-fit footprint which matches that of the Hydra Genesis EV chargepoint with an aperture for securely installing the necessary wiring with the use of suitable conduit.

Standing just 250mm high the foundation can be set into concrete with a minimal amount of excavation required, which reduces the time required for infrastructure installation.

The Hydra Genesis is then simply bolted to the foundation plate using the securing bolts provided. This also makes future maintenance easier if the unit needs to be relocated.

Type 2 EV Charging Cables

TYPE 2, SINGLE PHASE

Our single phase EV Charging Cables allow you to charge any electric vehicle with a Type2 socket from a socket-only AC charge points, similar to those used at home, your workplace or other public charging points.

These charging cables are available in different lengths from 5m up to 20m. They are designed to be used only with a 32Amp 7kW charging output and should not be used with the higher powered - 11kW and above - charging output. (see opposite page)

NB: Charging cables MUST NOT be used as an extension to an existing charging cable whether by way of an adapter or other socket. The cable can only be used when connected directly to the socket of the chargepoint and the EV.
