- Page 4 For planning purposes, expect most batteries in Tripp Lite UPS products to have a lifespan of 3-5 years. However, for applications that require constant discharging and charging of the internal batteries on a daily basis, the lifespan expectation diminishes at a much higher rate.
- Page 5 The SMART SERIES comes equipped with a user accessible battery replacement door, which enables qualified personnel to replace the UPS’ batteries without the need to take the unit out of service. This prevents extended downtimes for an application. The batteries in the SMART SERIES are hot-swappable, which allows for the replacement to occur while the equipment attached to the unit continues to operate.
- Page 6 The following steps are crucial to proper battery replacement. Please adhere to these instructions in order to prevent personal injury and damage to the UPS.

Line up the 3 new batteries included with the RBC53 side by side with the red positive battery connector of each cell next to the black negative battery connector of the battery next to it (indicated with yellow arrows). (Note: RBC53 batteries are not taped together as one cell.
- Page 15 Using the short black battery cables removed from the original batteries, reconnect the 3 cells together connecting the red positive terminal of one cell to the negative black terminal of the next cell.
