The purpose of this paper is to give explicit constructions of vectorial hyper-bent functions in the $\cP\cS_{ap}^{\#}$ class. It seems that the explicit constructions were so far known only for very special cases. To this end, we present a sufficient and necessary condition of this family of vectorial functions to be hyper-bent. The conditions are expressed in terms of group ring. Using this characterization, explicit constructions of vectorial hyper-bent functions of the $\cP\cS_{ap}^{\#}$ class via balanced functions are proposed. Furthermore, exact number of vectorial hyper-bent functions in the $\cP\cS_{ap}^{\#}$ class is found. The results improve some previous work. Moreover, we solve a problem of counting vectorial hyper-bent functions left by Muratović-Ribić, Pasalic and Ribić in [{\em IEEE Trans. Inform. Theory}, 60 (2014), pp. 4408-4413].
