SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC PRODUCT RECALL SAFETY NOTICE

Hazard: The results of analysis performed by Schneider Electric show that
battery issues caused by an internal battery nonconformance may affect the
battery performance and, in a very low number of cases, result in
localized overheating. 

Affected Products: The battery issue from a limited batch was identified in
Smart-UPS On-Line UPS systems using the 192V battery cartridge (part no.
APCRBC140) made between May 6th, 2019, and May 10th, 2020.
Refer to the instructions below to determine if your product is affected.  

Remedy: Affected batteries (part no. APCRBC140) need to be replaced and will be
provided.
The APCRBC140 battery is user serviceable and hot swappable.




HOW TO FIND YOUR DATE CODE

FINDING THE DATE CODE WILL HELP YOU IDENTIFY IF YOUR UNIT IS AFFECTED.

THE DATE CODE IS THE FIRST SIX CHARACTERS OF THE SERIAL NUMBER FOUND ON THE
MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER LABEL ATTACHED TO THE REAR PANEL OF THE PRODUCT. THIS
LABEL MAY BE LOCATED BEHIND THE FRONT BEZEL AS WELL. FOR THE BATTERY MODULE
INSIDE YOUR UPS/EXTERNAL BATTERY PACK, THE MODEL AND SERIAL NUMBER IS ON EITHER
