Direct replacement for APC 1000VA units

This sealed lead-acid cartridge fits APC BP1000, SU1000, SU1000NET, SU1000RM, SU1000RMNET and SUVS1000 models. It delivers 12 volts through two cells rated at 12 amps. The unit weighs 15.88 lbs and is supplied new.

Restores runtime after original cells age

Swapping the cartridge returns the UPS to its factory backup time without replacing the entire appliance. The jump is worth it when the existing battery no longer holds charge through a typical outage.

Suits owners of listed APC 1000VA models

Buyers with different UPS voltages, form factors or manufacturers should look elsewhere. The cartridge is not compatible with higher-capacity or rackmount units outside the specified series.

Questions about this item

Will the 15.88 lb cartridge fit inside my APC SU1000RM rack-mount UPS?

Yes, the RBC6-SLA6-BTI is built to the exact dimensions of the original APC cartridge for the SU1000RM and SU1000RMNET models, so it slides into the same battery bay without modification.

What is the correct order for connecting the two 12 V cells when installing the cartridge?

The two 12 V cells are pre-wired in series inside the sealed housing; you only need to plug the cartridge’s single connector into the UPS — reversing the internal leads is not possible.

How often should I expect to replace this 12 V 12 Ah sealed lead-acid unit?

Typical service life is three to five years; plan on swapping the cartridge when the UPS reports a battery fault or runtime drops noticeably below the original 1000 VA rating.
