Can we replace batteries on our Toshiba Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) which is part of our LTQ-XL mass spectrometer?

02 September 2017 1 4K Report

The batteries on our Toshiba USP 1600ep (for our LTQ-XL mass spectrometer) have gone bad. Is there an alternative to this very expensive UPS? How difficult is it to replace the batteries ourselves?

Stelios Ioannou

From my experience it can be done. However be cautious on the required voltage, capacity and the volume of the new batteries.
