General Features
Compatibility with UPS Systems
Each ACP RBC #55 is tested and approved by APC to restore the performance of UPS systems to their original operating specifications. This RBC conforms to safety regulations and maintains original UPS specifications and protection policies. The battery has an expected life of three to five years.
Fully Assembled for Easy Hot-Swap Installation
The APC RBC #55 comes fully assembled with connections made with high-current, gas-tight crimps and fuses included, making hot-swap installation quick. No downtime is necessary in order to install the battery cartridges. Easy-to-follow replacement instructions are included.
Convenient and Compliant
The APC RBC #55 is a spill-free, sealed lead-acid battery, which makes it compliant with international regulations and safe for transport. Almost all the lead content in the battery is reused, helping to protect the environment from hazardous chemicals. Generate a pre-paid shipping label and send your old battery to a certified recycling facility free of charge.
Genuine APC Replacement Battery Cartridges for Improved Performance
Because batteries in the market can vary in quality, using third-party batteries raises the risk of personal injury to the user, damage to the UPS, poor performance, or device failure. In contrast, APC demands the high quality from their battery suppliers, monitors the health of batteries while in storage, and matches the specifications of the UPS to the batteries it uses. APC replacement battery cartridges are designed for safe and easy installation, and are delivered fully assembled and tested. APC also offers an Equipment Protection Policy for devices protected by the UPS.

The APC RBC #55 is compatible with the following models: SUA48XLBP, DLA2200, DLA2200I, NECA3000JW, SUA2200, SUA2200I, SUA2200ICH, SUA2200X115, SUA3000, SUA3000I, SUA3000ICH, SUA5000R5TXFMR, SUA5000RMI5U, SUA5000RMT5U, SUA2200UXI, SUA2200UXICH, SUA2200XL, SUA2200XLI, SUA3000UXI, SUA3000XL, SUA3000XLI, SUA3000UXICH, SUA3000XLT, SMT2200, SMT2200I, SMT3000, SMT3000I, and SMT2200US.

APC RBC55 Reviews

Nice direct replacement batteries

By Stephan
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-01-27

My APC Smart UPS 2200 started to beep asking the batteries to be replaced. I ordered a pair from B&H. One of the new batteries was bad, 0 volts. B&H got me another pair over nighted via Fed Ex. Great service. Replacement set are fine.

Easy

Easy purchase and easy recycling would recommend using APC directly.

Does this item include the two battery packs shown

Does this item include the two battery packs shown in the picture that the UPS requires? Put another way, if I buy one of this item, will it fully replace the UPS batteries?
Asked by: Danny
The APC Replacement Battery Cartridge #55 (B&H # APRBC55) comes with both battery cartridges. It completely substitutes the batteries for compatible UPS models.

Do I need to calibrate it, after replacement?
Asked by: Anonymous
Sorry, I ended up returning the battery and didn't get to use them as my APC unit was broken. Wish I could be of further help.
