During power surges and failures, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) devices keep computer systems and IT equipment safe and operational. When the electrical supply voltage drops to an insufficient level or ceases, an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) provides battery-backed power. An uninterruptible power supply is vital in a mission-critical setting. Backup power is provided for a set period, depending on the UPS unit's size and technology. Until generators can be engaged or network components can be appropriately shut down. When electricity flows freely, computers and accessories are safe. A UPS unit can effectively protect a single device or an entire data centre.

If you already know which RBC module battery set you are looking for, you can be certain you are ordering the correct set for the RBC88, which generally fits some 1U rack-mounted UPS systems.

How to maximise the life of your APCRBC88 batteries?
The manufacturer states that these batteries should survive between two and five years when installed in a UPS unit, which is similar to APC's claims. We recommend that you run your system without any load once the batteries have been fitted to assist them in resetting and extend the battery life for future use. Cleaning the system, ensuring excellent ventilation around it, storing it in a climate-controlled environment, and using less than 40% of the load whenever possible are all smart ways to increase battery life.

Fitting RBC88 batteries in a UPS
Swapping out the batteries for new ones is a fairly straightforward task, and if you're unfamiliar with it, you may follow the directions in the manual. In a nutshell, remove the machine's back cover and unhook the battery module. Remove the screws and slide out the module; replace the batteries inside and replace the cover; if you think you might forget how to put it back together, take a photo of it first.
