Following the launch of its expanded DC range, UK-based Rolec has announced a major addition to its commercial AC portfolio – the brand-new HEX unit to meet the growing demands of businesses and organisations worldwide.
The HEX intelligent EV charging pedestal features a quad-outlet design suitable for centrally located parking bays, reducing groundwork and installation requirements while maximising charging availability for EV drivers.
Constructed of robust steel and created with a small footprint, HEX is purpose-built for commercial, workplace, and public charging environments. The same attention to design continues internally: effortless OCPP integration, optional plug & go, and a choice of 2 or 4-way 22kW charging makes for a fully configurable and seamless solution.
Payment flexibility is also a key feature. With options for RFID, pay-to-charge, and a single contactless payment terminal that can serve all four sockets. An optional 5” LCD screen displays real-time charging status, while built-in MID-approved energy metering provides accurate consumption reporting, essential for sites looking to recover costs or generate profit. Compatible with Rolec’s 40+ CPMS partners, a smart back-office platform enables operators to set custom tariffs and unlock new revenue streams.
HEX is installer-friendly, offering easy access from both sides, includes a lockable internal access door as standard, supports split phase supply, and is engineered with compactness and deployment efficiency in mind.
Additional features include small, diffused LED amenity lighting for accessibility in low-light locations. The unit also conforms to the PAS 1899 accessible charging standard, delivering EV charging for all users.
Rolec says HEX is not only a smart choice for infrastructure, but also for funding. Eligible for four separate government grants, its four-socket design provides excellent value and investment potential for businesses, local authorities, and destination venues.
Frankie Mellon, MD at Rolec, commented on the launch of HEX: “We’ve launched this unit specifically to meet the requirements of demanding, high-use environments to provide reliable, simultaneous charging for up to four vehicles from one compact pedestal. Reducing the need for large scale installation by providing charging on all four corners. All of which is supported by dynamic load balancing and power distribution optimised across all sockets.
HEX combines advanced functionality and visibility through real-time status displays, with exceptional performance, designed to maximise user experience, ROI, flexibility, and scalability. It’s adaptable to the requirements of your site, through optional and varied payment methods that support hassle-free transactions.”
HEX is available now for pre-order.
