Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) devices keep computer systems and IT equipment safe and operational during power surges and failures. An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) provides battery backup power when the flow of electricity drops to an insufficient voltage or stops. In a mission-critical environment, an uninterruptible power supply is essential. Depending on the size and technology of the UPS unit, backup power is provided for a specific period until generators can be activated or network components can be properly shut down. Computers and accessories are safe when electricity flows freely. A single device or an entire data centre can be effectively protected by a UPS unit.
The first thing to check is that you looking at the correct set for your UPS, there is more than one APC Smart-UPS 1500 model with very similar model numbers. On the reverse of the unit you will find a plate with the model number on it, it should say SMT1500RMI1U, if this is not the case and something else is mentioned then use the search on our website above to find the correct page.

How to maximise the life of your SMT1500RMI1U batteries?
When installed in a UPS machine, the manufacturer suggests that these batteries should last between two and five years, which is consistent with what APC claims. We recommend that once the batteries have been installed in your system, you run it without any load to help them reset and extend the battery life for future use. Other tips for extending battery life include keeping the system clean, having good ventilation around the system, storing it in a climate-controlled room, and using less than 40% load whenever possible.
APC SMT1500RMI1U Operation manual and installation
Swapping the batteries over for new ones is a pretty simple job and if you are inexperienced you follow the instructions that can be found within the manual we have available for you to download. In short however, remove the machine's back cover and unplug the battery module. Undo the screws and slide out the module, replace the batteries inside, and slide the module back in, making sure the screws are back in place and the cover is replaced; if you think you might forget how to put it back together, take a photo of it first.
