APC / Schneider Electric Battery Communications Interface Board — 885-6625/1
Type: PC Component Board • Function: Battery Communications Interface • Part: 88566251
The APC / Schneider Electric 885-6625/1 (88566251) is a battery communications interface PC board used in select APC/Schneider power systems to support system-level battery communication, monitoring, and integration functions. This part is often sourced for service repairs when the original interface board fails, is damaged during handling, or becomes unreliable over time.
- Battery comms interface — supports communications/monitoring pathways within compatible systems.
- Service replacement board — used to restore proper detection and battery-related reporting functions.
- Field-repair friendly — ideal for technicians rebuilding legacy APC/Schneider hardware.
- Discontinued by manufacturer — availability is limited; confirm fitment before purchase.
Why interface boards fail (and why it matters)
- Heat & age — long runtime in warm power rooms accelerates component drift.
- ESD / handling damage — static events during service can weaken sensitive circuitry.
- Connector stress — repeated insertions/removals can fatigue headers and solder joints.
- Environmental contamination — dust and humidity increase corrosion risk over time.
Our solution
- Fitment-first check — confirm the exact host system and revision before it ships.
- Clean install guidance — ESD-safe handling and connector best practices.
- Practical troubleshooting — help isolating comms faults vs. cabling or upstream controller issues.

Service tip
Handle as an ESD-sensitive board: power down fully, discharge, use a wrist strap, and avoid flexing the PCB. Inspect connectors and mating harnesses—many “board failures” trace back to oxidized pins or loose harnesses.
Why buy from Gruber
- Fitment help — confirm system model/revision before you commit.
- Critical-power experience — practical guidance from real UPS service workflows.
- Cleaner outcomes — reduce downtime by avoiding wrong-part installs.
| Fitment Required — UPS / System Model Needed (885-6625/1) |
| Important |
This battery communications interface board is model- and revision-specific. We must confirm the exact UPS / battery system it will be installed in to ensure proper communication and physical fit. |
| When ordering, please provide: |
- System brand (APC / Schneider Electric)
- Host equipment type (UPS, battery cabinet, or power system)
- Full model number (and serial / revision if available)
|
| Why we need this: |
- Confirm the correct board revision / connector layout
- Verify system compatibility and expected communications behavior
- Prevent mismatch installs that cause comms faults or non-detection
- Optionally advise on installation best practices (ESD handling, harness checks)
|
| Note |
If system information is not provided at the time of purchase, your order may be delayed while we contact you, or the part may ship without final verification, increasing the risk of on-site fitment issues. |
