Direct OEM replacement

The American Battery Company RBC33 is a pre-assembled replacement battery cartridge designed for APC UPS models BR1500, BX1500 and SC1000. It contains two maintenance-free sealed lead-acid batteries rated at 12V 9ah, pre-charged and housed with all required connectors, cables, fuses and metal enclosures for immediate installation.

Ideal for hot-swap UPS maintenance

This cartridge suits administrators who need to restore backup runtime without powering down connected equipment, thanks to its hot-swappable, plug-and-play design. It is not suitable for users whose UPS model falls outside the three listed APC series or who require a different voltage or capacity configuration.

Fits existing chassis and simplifies recycling

The unit measures 7.75 by 5.88 by 2.50 inches and weighs 13.00 lbs, matching the original form factor so it slides into the UPS battery bay without modification. Reusable packaging is included to return the depleted cartridge for recycling, reducing disposal hassle and environmental impact.
