How to install Eaton Internal Replacement Battery Cartridge (RBC)

• Power down all connected equipment and safely shut down the UPS if required; then unplug the UPS from the wall outlet and disconnect any auxiliary power sources to prevent energy transfer during the replacement.
• Access the RBC carrier or battery compartment according to the UPS model’s service manual. Remove any enclosure covers or barriers that protect the RBC, taking care to follow proper safety procedures and to avoid accidental contact with electrical components.
• Carefully disconnect the existing RBC from its connectors, noting orientation and label references to ensure a correct reinstallation. Remove the old cartridge from the compartment once all connections are safely released.
• Unpack the new RBC and inspect it for any transport damage. Align the cartridge with the carrier rails or mounting points, then reattach connectors or cables following the color-coding or labeling used by Eaton’s system. Ensure the cartridge seats firmly and locks into place without forcing components.
• Close and secure the enclosure, reassemble any panels, and restore power to the UPS. Power on the unit and allow it to complete its internal self-test and health check. Use the UPS management interface to verify battery status, remaining runtime, and overall health of the RBC.
• Test the system by simulating a power loss (if a controlled test is approved in your environment) to confirm proper shutdown behavior and graceful return to normal operation. After testing, resume normal monitoring and logging through your standard management tools.
