Product Description
Big Protection in a Slim Package
Not every rack setup needs a massive battery cartridge. For smaller 500VA UPS systems, the RBC62-1U from Battery Mart delivers exactly the right amount of backup power in an ultra-slim 1U form factor. Whether you're protecting a single server, a network switch, or a small cluster of devices, this replacement pack gets your UPS back up to full strength quickly and without hassle.
Compatible with Both APC and Tripp Lite
This battery pack serves as a direct replacement for select 500VA 1U rackmount UPS systems from both APC and Tripp Lite. APC-compatible models include the SMX500RT1U and SM500RMNAFTA. For Tripp Lite users, it fits the SMART500RT1U, SMART500RT1UN, SMART500RT1UTAA, and HTR05-1U. Two brands, one replacement part — it simplifies your spare parts inventory and speeds up procurement.
Two 6V Batteries, Ready to Install
Inside the cartridge are two 6V 9Ah sealed lead acid batteries wired in series to deliver a 12V DC output — exactly what compatible APC and Tripp Lite UPS systems require. They arrive pre-assembled into a single unit, so there's nothing to wire or configure. Just remove the old cartridge, slide in the new one, connect the lead, and your UPS is ready to protect your equipment again.
Sealed, Safe, and Maintenance-Free
These sealed lead acid batteries are completely maintenance-free from the moment they're installed. No fluid levels to monitor, no venting to arrange, and no risk of leaks. The sealed design makes them a safe, worry-free choice for enclosed server rooms, wiring closets, and anywhere else space is at a premium.
An Ideal Fit for Space-Conscious Racks
Measuring just 5.88" long x 5.63" wide x 1.31" tall, the RBC62-1U has one of the most compact profiles in the replacement battery category. At only 5.5 lbs, it's lightweight enough to handle easily during installation while still packing the reliable capacity your 500VA UPS needs. Every inch of rack space counts, and this pack is designed with that in mind.
Backed by an 2-Year Warranty

Frequently Asked Questions
What UPS models is the RBC62-1U compatible with?
This battery pack is compatible with select 500VA 1U rackmount UPS systems from APC and Tripp Lite. APC-compatible models include the SMX500RT1U and SM500RMNAFTA. Tripp Lite-compatible models include the SMART500RT1U, SMART500RT1UN, SMART500RT1UTAA, and HTR05-1U. A full cross-reference list is available on the product page.
How many batteries are included, and what are the specs?
The RBC62-1U includes two 6V 9Ah sealed lead acid batteries, pre-assembled into a single cartridge wired in series for a 12V DC output. This matches the original factory configuration for all compatible APC and Tripp Lite UPS models.
Is this a plug-and-play replacement?
Yes. The pack arrives fully assembled and pre-wired, so no tools or technical experience are needed. Remove the old battery cartridge from your UPS, insert the new pack, connect the lead, and your UPS is back in service. Most installs take just a few minutes.
Will using a third-party replacement battery void my UPS warranty?
In most cases, no — and federal law backs you up on this. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer cannot legally void your warranty simply because you used a compatible third-party replacement part, unless they can demonstrate that the part itself caused the issue. Routine battery replacement with a compatible pack like this one is considered normal maintenance and should not affect your UPS warranty coverage. If you have specific concerns, we recommend reviewing your UPS warranty terms or contacting APC or Tripp Lite directly.
Do I need to do any maintenance on these batteries?
No maintenance is needed. The sealed lead acid design is completely maintenance-free — no fluid checks, no venting, and no risk of spillage. Once installed, the batteries charge automatically through your UPS.

The RBC62-1U measures 5.88" long x 5.63" wide x 1.31" tall and has a shipping weight of approximately 5.5 lbs. Its slim profile is designed to fit precisely in the 1U bay of compatible APC and Tripp Lite UPS systems.
