APC by Schneider Electric SRT192RMBP2US 192V Rackmount Extended-Run Battery Pack

Overview

The SRT192RMBP2US is a rackmount extended-run battery pack engineered specifically to pair with APC Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA and 10kVA systems — the tier of UPS that protects server rooms, network closets, and edge compute installations where a single unplanned outage carries real cost. At 200.20 lb and a 5.12U profile (130 mm tall, 432 mm wide, 683 mm deep), this is a high-density lead-acid battery module that ships ready to slot into an existing Smart-UPS SRT deployment and extend runtime without adding a second UPS to the stack. If your current battery runtime is the limiting factor in your business continuity posture, the SRT192RMBP2US is the direct answer — provided your SRT 8kVA or 10kVA unit supports the 192V battery bus, which it does by design.

Key Features

• Hot-Swappable Battery Design: You can pull and replace the lead-acid cells inside the SRT192RMBP2US while the connected UPS continues to supply conditioned power downstream. For a 24/7 data center or NOC environment, this eliminates the scheduled maintenance window that most battery replacements demand — the protected load never sees a gap.
• 192V Battery Bus — Matched to SRT 8kVA and 10kVA: The 192V nominal voltage rail is purpose-built for the Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA and 10kVA chassis. Mismatched battery packs at this power tier create unsafe float voltage conditions; the SRT192RMBP2US removes that variable entirely by being the factory-correct pack for these two models.
• Lead-Acid Chemistry with APCRBC140 Replacement Path: The replacement battery cartridge is APCRBC140 — a standard, widely stocked component in the APC ecosystem. When cells reach end-of-life, you are not sourcing a proprietary cell pack on a long lead time; APCRBC140 is broadly available through commercial channels.
• Rackmount Form Factor (5.12U / 432 mm wide): The 17.01 in (432 mm) width fits standard 19-inch rack enclosures without adapters, and the 5.12 in height occupies just over 3U of rack space. If your equipment room is running tight on vertical space, this density matters — you get extended runtime without consuming the rack real estate a tower battery module would require.
• 200.20 lb Fully Loaded: This weight is not a footnote — it is a structural consideration. Floor load ratings, rack weight limits, and elevator capacity all need to be confirmed before installation. A standard 4-post open-frame rack with a 1,500 lb capacity handles it, but a wall-mount or two-post relay rack does not. Factor this into your site survey before ordering.
• RoHS Compliant, Mercury-Free: The SRT192RMBP2US carries RoHS compliance and mercury-free construction, which satisfies the environmental disposal and procurement requirements that enterprise buyers and government end-users increasingly require as part of their vendor qualification process.
• 24-Month Manufacturer Warranty: APC covers the core product for 24 months — a two-year window that aligns with typical battery maintenance cycles at this UPS tier. If you are building a multi-year OpEx model for your power infrastructure, the warranty boundary is a known planning input.

Integration and Compatibility

The SRT192RMBP2US is designed exclusively for UPS battery pack expansion within the APC Smart-UPS SRT product line, specifically the 8kVA and 10kVA rackmount configurations. It does not cross-connect to Smart-UPS SMT, SMX, or other voltage-class Smart-UPS SRT variants — confirm your host UPS model before purchasing. The compatible replacement battery cartridge is the APCRBC140, which is a distinct SKU from the battery pack itself and is serviced separately. For runtime calculations specific to your load, use APC's published runtime curves for the SRT 8kVA and 10kVA with external battery packs; actual runtime will depend on load percentage, ambient temperature, and battery age.

If you are building or expanding a rackmount UPS system, pair this battery pack with appropriate rack enclosures and cable management to maintain airflow and structural support around the battery module. For multi-pack configurations, consult the Smart-UPS SRT installation guide for maximum external pack count and daisy-chain limitations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which UPS models is the SRT192RMBP2US compatible with?

A: The SRT192RMBP2US is designed for use with APC Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA and 10kVA rackmount systems that operate on a 192V battery bus. It is not compatible with lower-voltage Smart-UPS models or non-SRT product lines. Verify your host UPS model number before ordering.

Q: What is the replacement battery cartridge for the SRT192RMBP2US?

A: The replacement battery cartridge is the APCRBC140. This is a separately purchased component used to service the cells inside the battery pack when they reach end-of-life.

Q: Can the SRT192RMBP2US batteries be replaced without shutting down the connected UPS?

A: Yes. The SRT192RMBP2US supports hot-swappable battery replacement, meaning you can replace the internal batteries while the UPS continues to supply power to protected equipment. This eliminates planned downtime for routine battery maintenance.

Q: What is the warranty on the SRT192RMBP2US?

A: APC covers the SRT192RMBP2US with a 24-month manufacturer warranty on the core product.

Q: What are the physical dimensions and weight of the SRT192RMBP2US?

A: The unit measures 5.12 in H × 17.01 in W × 26.89 in D (130 × 432 × 683 mm) and weighs 200.20 lb (90.81 kg). Verify rack floor load ratings and structural support before installation.

Q: Is the SRT192RMBP2US RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The SRT192RMBP2US is RoHS compliant and mercury-free, satisfying common environmental procurement requirements for enterprise and government deployments.

Karl Wilson

The SRT192RMBP2US weighs 200.20 lb — and that number should be the first thing your facilities team sees before this unit ships. I have watched installations stall at the dock because the equipment room floor load rating was never verified for a battery module this dense. Once you clear that hurdle, the SRT192RMBP2US does exactly what it is supposed to: it extends runtime on a Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA or 10kVA without requiring a second UPS in the stack, and it does it in a 5.12-inch rackmount form factor that keeps your rack footprint manageable.

Technical Highlights:

• 192V Battery Bus Match: Purpose-designed for the Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA and 10kVA — no voltage adapter, no float-voltage mismatch risk. This is the factory-correct external pack for those two models.
• Hot-Swap Capability: Internal lead-acid cells can be replaced while the UPS carries the load. For a 24/7 operation, that means battery end-of-life does not become a scheduled outage.
• APCRBC140 Replacement Path: A standard, widely stocked APC cartridge. When cells age out — typically 3–5 years depending on environment — you are sourcing a common part, not a proprietary assembly on allocation.

Deployment Considerations:

• At 200.20 lb, confirm your rack's weight capacity and floor load rating before the unit arrives. A standard 4-post 19-inch rack handles it; a two-post or wall-mount relay rack does not.
• The 192V bus is specific to the SRT 8kVA and 10kVA — do not attempt to pair this pack with SMT, SMX, or lower-capacity SRT variants. The host UPS model number must be verified before purchase.

This battery pack is the right call for a server room or NOC running Smart-UPS SRT 8kVA or 10kVA units where the baseline runtime is insufficient for the recovery window your BCP requires — particularly in environments where hot-swap maintenance without a planned outage is a hard operational requirement.
