Battery Maintenance
Obtaining New Batteries
New batteries may be required within 30 to 60 days when the Alarm LED is solid red and the
LCD displays either a Battery Needs Service or Battery Test Failed alarm. Obtain spare
batteries for the UPS when this occurs.
HP supplies spare battery modules for UPS R12000 XR models. The UPS spare battery kit
part number is 228288-001
.
CAUTION: Because of the short shelf life of the battery, avoid storing a battery spare as a
backup. It is recommended that an inventory of spare batteries not be maintained onsite
unless a procedure to keep these batteries charged while in storage is implemented.
Replacing the Batteries
The batteries in the UPS are hot-swappable. Batteries may be replaced (hot-swapped) without
powering off the UPS if the UPS is not supplying battery power to devices. The Utility LED
will be solid green if the UPS is supplying utility power.
The UPS is provided with an internal lithium battery and a sealed lead-acid battery module.
There is a danger of explosion and risk of personal injury if the batteries are incorrectly
replaced or mistreated. Replacement is to be done by an HP authorized service provider using
the spare designated for the product. For more information about battery replacement or
proper disposal, contact your HP authorized reseller or HP authorized service provider.
