The VISION RBC6 kit is designed as a replacement for the original APC RBC6 battery unit and is, among others, compatible with the following APC Smart UPS models: SU1000I and SU1000INET. Please check the exact designation of your UPS system before purchase.

Is it complicated to replace the battery?

No, replacement is generally very simple and can be performed without technical expertise. Most APC UPS systems have an easily accessible battery compartment. All you need to do is disconnect and remove the old battery unit and connect and insert the new VISION RBC6 kit. Make sure to wire the two batteries correctly.

Do I need to set anything on the UPS after replacement?

After inserting the new battery, you should switch on the UPS and run a self-test function. It's recommended to note the replacement date of the battery via the software (PowerChute) or on the display. A runtime calibration can be helpful to ensure the exact remaining runtime display.

Is it safe to use a replacement battery from third-party manufacturers?

Yes, absolutely. VISION is a renowned manufacturer of high-quality AGM batteries that often meet or even exceed the specifications of the original batteries. Our RBC6 kit uses only quality-tested batteries designed for use in UPS systems and guarantee the highest safety.

What is the service life of the VISION RBC6 replacement battery?

The service life of the built-in batteries in typical standby operation in a UPS system at 20°C is up to 5 years. The actual service life may be affected by factors such as ambient temperature and frequency of power failures.

What do I need to consider when disposing of the old battery pack?

Lead-acid batteries are hazardous waste and must not be disposed of with household waste. You can dispose of your old battery pack free of charge and in an environmentally responsible manner at municipal collection points, recycling centres, or at any retailer selling starter batteries.
