Hussh Pod Help

Find answers to common technical questions regarding Hussh Pods in the field, and our Power Saving Solutions service.

Introducing the Hussh Pod, what it is, and how to identify it

Our fleet of Hussh Pods includes:
1/4, 5/15, 10/20, 30/45, 45/90, 60/100, and 150/150.

The first number means the kVa rating of the inverters, which is the output power of your Hussh Pod, alongside the second number which is kilowatt per hour of useable battery storage.

Checking the Generator is in 'Auto', 'Hybrid' or 'Bypass'

For the Hussh Pod to be in ‘Auto’ mode, this would mean that: 

The generator turns on or off automatically by the Hussh Pod depending on factors such as the battery charge and the load required. This mode is typically used for a back-up power supply when the generator engages because of the battery depletion or high load demands.

For the Hussh Pod to be in ‘Hybrid’ mode, this would
mean that: 

The generator and the Hussh Pod work together to manage your load. This would mean the Hussh Pod is used as a solution by handling the different loads and demands and ultimately reducing the generator’s workload.

For the Hussh Pod to be in ‘Bypass’ mode, this would
mean that: 

The BESS unit is not actively charging nor discharging, which means it isn’t part of the energy loop and the diesel generator will be constantly active.

Checking the Emergency Stop button & the RCD devices

An Emergency Stop button and RCD devices are placed on every pod to ensure the safety of everyone on site.

There are some cases where the emergency stop button has been pressed, which means you will need to twist and pull the button to release it before the pod becomes operational again.

There can be cases where the RCD’s are tripped and you may need to turn it back on again and allow the BESS to produce output power.

Preparing the BESS unit and starting it up

Some people may be unfamiliar with how a site integrates a Hussh Pod, the batteries will need to be switched on alongside the breakers and the inverters. Written instructions are also included within the pod as seen in the video to assist you. 

Watch the video to learn how to start up your Hussh Pod effectively and correctly.

Setting up your Hussh Pod on a periodic run timer

Whether you’d like your Hussh Pod to have a specific run duration, or you would like to start it up at a specific time, this can be easily done on our energy management system.
