How to Assemble an APC RBC7 Smart UPS Battery(3)

Steps

10.Put the UPS back together following the instructions from step 1.

11.If you want to avoid the hassle of glueing the batteries, you can purchase pre-glued and harnessed RBC7 compatible replacement battery cartridges.

12.Turn on the UPS, pull the plug and make sure it runs on battery power.

13.Let the new batteries charge overnight.

14.Now, you need to calibrate it, so the runtime and capacity indicator reads accurately. The UPS should be loaded to 30-50% of the rated watt capacity. For 1000VA/~650W and 1500/~950W model, 300W halogen floor lamp works well.

15.Connect a 30-50% non-varying load to the UPS and disconnect power to the UPS. (Rather than pull the plug, it's best to disconnect power with your circuit breaker or a power strip. See below in Tips.) Let it run until it shuts off completely. Ignore all beeping. It should take about 45 minutes to an hour.

16.Immediately start charging. Let it charge overnight. The UPS is now ready to be put into service.
