You may also have an extended battery module (EBM) attached to your UPS, typically a 2U K811N. If you need to change your batteries, please do so at the same time. A link to the separate battery pack is below.
Installing new batteries is a relatively easy task. Once you clip off the front panel, you'll see the metal battery door. A thumb screw secures it; undo this, slide the door to the right, then open it. You'll then be able to see the battery tray. We suggest taking a picture of the wiring with your smartphone. This gives you something to refer to if anything is disturbed; swap one battery at a time so you don't make a mistake, and refer to your manual for full instructions.
Expected battery life in such an installation is between 2-5 years. Batteries should be changed at least every 5 years. The lifespan can be affected by several factors: running too hot because of lack of ventilation. Keep the communications room cool. Dust can also block the vents and build up on the fans, making them less efficient; use a vacuum to keep the outside of the box clean. Another reason is an overdue load; the network will grow over time, requiring more energy.
The batteries are valve-regulated sealed lead-acid (VRLA); they will not leak and can be mounted on the side, making them suitable for both tower- and rack-mountable configurations. They are AGM (absorbed glass mat), recyclable, and primarily lead-based, making them an environmentally friendly way to store energy for your uninterruptible power supply.
Hot-swap-capable batteries.
VRLA, AGM, Pb, sealed, not hazardous.
