What Are Some Battery Maintenance and Storage Tips for my APC AP1400 Unit.
The proper storage of your APC AP1400 batteries cannot be overemphasized. Improper battery storage is the most common form of battery misuse. All batteries exhibit a loss of charge over time even when stored in an open circuit condition. This is called self-discharge. Both chemical and electrochemical reactions within the battery cause this consumption of the stored energy. The self-discharge reaction rate increases as a function of temperature. If the batteries are stored long enough without a periodic replenishment of charge, an irreversible loss of battery capacity can occur, causing premature battery failure.
APC AP1400 should be stored separately from the UPS and used according from oldest to newest. All APC AP1400 battery packs should be recharged before use if 100% capacity is required. The stored APC AP1400 battery should be kept on a maintenance program and should be recharged periodically according to the recommendations of the tabel below. Battery packs can be recharged using the APC AP1400 UPS unit.
