Direct replacement for APC UPS units

The PowerWarehouse APCRBC132-PW is a new sealed lead-acid battery cartridge designed to replace APC Battery Cartridge #132 in compatible Smart-UPS and Symmetra systems. It fits the SMT1000R2I-AR, SMT1000RM2U, SMT1000RM2UTW, SMT1000RMI2U and SMC1500-2UC models without modification. The unit measures 13.50" L x 8.50" W x 3.25" H and weighs 24.8 lbs. It arrives ready to install with no acid handling required.

Suitable for rack-mount UPS maintenance

This cartridge suits administrators who need a drop-in replacement for the original RBC132 in the listed APC units. It is not for users whose UPS model is absent from the compatibility list or who require a different form factor, voltage or connector arrangement. Buyers needing hot-swappable modules for other APC series should verify the exact cartridge number before ordering.

Sealed lead-acid chemistry under continuous float

The maintenance-free design uses absorbed glass mat technology to deliver steady backup power during extended utility outages. Under sustained load the cells maintain voltage without gassing or leakage, supporting the UPS through its rated runtime. The 18 month warranty covers capacity loss under normal float operation in compatible hardware.

Questions about this item

Which UPS models accept the APCRBC132-PW cartridge so I know my unit is supported?

The cartridge fits APC Smart-UPS models SMT1000R2I-AR, SMT1000RM2U, SMT1000RM2UTW, SMT1000RMI2U and SMC1500-2UC, replacing Battery Cartridge #132.

Will the replacement cartridge fit the same rack space as the original RBC132 in my SMT1000RM2U?

Yes, it matches the original dimensions of 13.50" L x 8.50" W x 3.25" H and weighs 24.8 lbs, so it occupies the identical rack footprint.

How can I verify the new battery is recognised and healthy after I install it?

Run a self-test from the UPS front panel or management software; a passed test and normal runtime indication confirm the cartridge is working as intended.
