Replacing the Battery Module
The UPS battery life differs based on usage and environment.
This UPS has an easy to replace, hot-swappable battery module. Replacement is a safe procedure,
isolated from electrical hazards. You may leave the UPS and connected equipment on during the
replacement procedure. See your dealer or contact APC at www.apc.com
for information on re-
placement battery modules.
Refer to Mount the UPS in a Rack for instructions on battery removal and replacement.
Be sure to deliver the spent battery to a recycling facility or ship it to APC in the
replacement battery packing material.
Once the battery(s) are disconnected, the connected equipment is not protected from power outages.
Be careful during battery replacement-the battery modules are heavy.
Transporting
1. Shut down and disconnect any equipment attached to the UPS.
2. Shut down the UPS, and disconnect the UPS from the utility power outlet.
