The APC replacement battery RBC48 is an original replacement part for Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) of the brand APC. It serves as a direct replacement for the battery integrated in the device and ensures continuous power supply to connected equipment in the event of a power failure. The product is specifically designed for Smart-UPS Line Interactive SMT/SUA models and has been tested and certified for 100% compatibility with the respective UPS systems. The battery is manufactured using Valve Regulated Lead Acid (VRLA) technology, enabling maintenance-free operation and safe, gas-tight performance. The battery capacity is 7 Ah, providing sufficient energy supply for the intended UPS models. The battery recharge time is 3 hours, ensuring the battery is quickly fully recharged after replacement or discharge.

Applications
The RBC48 is primarily designed for use in APC Smart-UPS devices, particularly the SMT750I and SUA750I models. It is used in environments where reliable power supply for network and IT equipment, communication systems, or industrial devices is required. The battery is designed for indoor use and is suitable for applications in offices, server rooms, or small data centers. The operating temperature ranges from 0 to 40 °C, ensuring stable performance in typical office and server environments. Storage is possible at temperatures from -15 to 45 °C and relative humidity from 0 to 95 %, allowing for flexible storage conditions.

Features and Equipment in Detail
The replacement battery is delivered fully assembled and ready for use. It consists of a single battery housed in a black-painted enclosure. The dimensions are 137 mm (width) × 358 mm (depth) × 157 mm (height), fitting into the designated UPS enclosures. The weight is 5 kg, which should be considered during installation and handling. The battery is designed for hot-swap operation, meaning it can be replaced without shutting down the UPS to avoid interruption of power supply.
