APC SMT1500NC Battery Replacement Kit

UPS systems are vital to ensuring that critical equipment is kept running during a power outage to prevent data loss and business disruptions. A UPS unit will only operate to its full rated capacity with true high-rate discharge batteries, general purpose (GP) batteries typically marketed as replacements will not meet the immediate power needs for the UPS and cause premature system failure.

A high rate discharge battery is a battery that is specifically designed to release a high amount of energy in a short amount of time on demand. This type of battery is often used in applications where immediate power delivery is needed such as UPS battery backup systems and starting applications.

High rate discharge batteries are designed using thinner lead plates than deep cycle batteries, which allows for more lead plates to be used and increase the overall surface area of the active electrode material. This results in a higher rate of chemical reaction with the electrolyte, and ultimately leads to a much higher discharge rate.
