APC RBC43 Battery for various devices # content_copy

The APC replacement battery RBC43 (OEM) is an original replacement module for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) and serves as a direct replacement for worn-out or defective battery cartridges. The module is specifically designed for use in various APC UPS models, including SMT2200RMi2U, SMT3000RMI2U, SUA2200RMI2U, SUA3000RMI2U, SUM1500RMXLI2U, SUM3000RMXLI2U, DLA2200RMI2U, SUM48RMXLBP2U, and DLA3000RMI2U. The battery is manufactured using Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology, ensuring a maintenance-free and leak-proof operation. This technology employs a suspended electrolyte, minimizing the risk of fluid loss and enabling safe installation even in vertical orientation.

Applications

The RBC43 is primarily designed for use in stationary UPS systems deployed in server rooms, IT infrastructures, network installations, or industrial facilities. The battery acts as an energy buffer to continue powering connected loads during power outages or voltage fluctuations. Its compatibility with multiple APC models makes it a universal replacement part suitable for various power ratings and application scenarios.

Features and Equipment in Detail

A key feature of the RBC43 is its hot-swappable capability. This means the battery cartridge can be replaced while the UPS is in operation, without needing to shut down the connected load or power off the UPS. This enhances operational reliability and minimizes downtime. The cartridge is fully pre-assembled and equipped with all necessary connections, allowing it to be directly installed into the existing system without additional mounting work or modifications.

Technology Explained Simply

The battery is based on Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology, known for its reliability and low maintenance requirements. The battery has a nominal voltage of 12 V DC and a capacity of 480,000 mAh (equivalent to 48 Ah), ensuring sufficient energy supply for the specified UPS models. The operating temperature ranges from 0 °C to 40 °C, and the relative humidity during operation can reach up to 95 %, enabling flexible deployment in various environments. Dimensions are 215.9 mm (width) × 533.4 mm (depth) × 76.2 mm (height), and the weight is 19 kg.

Compatibility and Accessories

The RBC43 is specifically developed for the mentioned APC UPS models and replaces the entire old battery cartridge including all connections. No additional components or tools are required for installation. Compatibility is limited to the specified models; use with other UPS models is not intended.

Installation and Mounting

Installation is performed by simply removing the old cartridge and inserting the new RBC43 into the designated compartment of the UPS. The hot-swappable feature allows this process without interrupting power supply to connected devices. Connections are already integrated, so no additional wiring is necessary.

Operational Advantages

Using the original APC battery RBC43 ensures optimal performance and reliability. The 2-year warranty provides additional security for operation. The maintenance-free design reduces maintenance effort, and the leak-proof construction enhances safety during installation and operation. The high capacity and stable voltage storage ensure reliable power supply during outages.

The RBC43 is thus a reliable replacement part for APC UPS systems, ensuring operational safety and availability of connected devices.
