Replacement Battery Cartridge #142

The APC APCRBC142 is a new replacement battery cartridge designed for compatible APC uninterruptible power supply units. It uses a maintenance-free sealed lead-acid design with suspended electrolyte for leakproof operation. The cartridge delivers a 24 V output and a 216 VA-h capacity. It arrives ready to install as a single standalone battery stack.

Hot-swappable design for continuous uptime

The cartridge supports hot-swappable replacement so protected equipment stays powered during the swap. This suits environments that cannot tolerate downtime for battery maintenance. Buyers whose UPS requires a different cartridge number or voltage should look at other options. Units needing multiple cartridges per string will not be served by this single-pack RBC quantity.

216 VA-h capacity at 24 V

The battery provides a volt-amp-hour rating of 216 at 24 volts, which determines runtime for the connected load. Expected service life ranges from three to five years under normal conditions. Verify that your UPS model specifies cartridge #142 before ordering.

Questions about this item

Which APC UPS models accept the RBC142 cartridge as a direct replacement?

The RBC142 cartridge is designed for specific APC UPS units that use a 24 V, 216 VA·h battery stack; check your UPS documentation or the APC compatibility list to confirm your model is supported.

Can I install this 24 V cartridge while my UPS stays online and keep the load protected?

Yes, the cartridge is hot-swappable, so you can replace it without powering down the UPS and the connected equipment continues to receive clean power.

After fitting the cartridge, what front-panel indication shows the UPS recognises the new battery?

The UPS will run an automatic self-test and the replace-battery LED should turn off; a green on-line or battery-OK indicator confirms the new cartridge is detected and healthy.
