APC RBC17 #17 Replacement Battery Cartridge
Product Overview
The APC RBC17 #17 replacement battery cartridge is a genuine APC UPS replacement battery built to restore runtime on supported APC Back-UPS systems. This 12V 9Ah lead-acid cartridge is tested and certified by Schneider Electric (APC) to return your unit to its original backup performance after the factory battery has aged. Fitting a fresh RBC17 cartridge maintains reliable battery backup for the equipment your UPS protects. It is the direct way to refresh capacity without replacing the entire UPS.
Product Description
The RBC17 is a pre-assembled replacement battery cartridge for supported APC Back-UPS models. It uses a sealed, leak-proof lead-acid battery rated at 12V and 9Ah, shipped brand new and ready to install. APC packages its replacement batteries as cartridges so the full battery pack is swapped as a single certified assembly, which keeps wiring and connections consistent with the original equipment. Because battery capacity declines over the service life of any UPS, installing a fresh cartridge is the most effective way to maintain rated runtime. On supported models the battery is user-replaceable, and hot-swap capability depends on the specific UPS model, so confirm against your unit before servicing. APC uses two naming conventions for its cartridges: older parts carry the RBC prefix while newer parts use the APCRBC prefix, and this item is the RBC17. The cartridge supports APC-authorized recycling for responsible disposal of the spent battery.
Key Features
- Genuine APC cartridge — As a factory APC RBC, the RBC17 is tested and certified by Schneider Electric to restore your UPS to original specifications.
- 12V 9Ah lead-acid battery — The sealed lead-acid chemistry delivers the rated voltage and capacity your Back-UPS was designed around.
- Leak-proof sealed construction — The valve-regulated, leak-proof design allows safe operation and handling during replacement.
- Fully assembled and ready for use — The cartridge ships pre-built so installation is a direct swap rather than building a battery pack.
- Restores UPS runtime — A fresh cartridge returns backup time toward original levels after the original battery has degraded.
- Brand new from managed warehouse — Each battery ships new from a strictly managed warehouse for predictable shelf life.
- Supports authorized recycling — The cartridge backs APC-authorized recycling for earth-friendly disposal of the old battery.
