Description
990XCP98000 3V Lithium Replacement Battery for Schneider Electric Modicon Quantum PLC
The 990XCP98000 replacement battery is designed for compatible Schneider Electric Modicon Quantum programmable logic controllers.
This aftermarket lithium backup battery assembly provides a replacement option for equipment requiring the 990XCP98000 configuration. Additionally, its connecting wires and plug connector support installation in compatible controller battery interfaces.
The original Schneider Electric 990XCP98000 specification calls for a 3V primary lithium battery with a rated capacity of 1.2Ah (1200mAh). Therefore, buyers should confirm that the supplied replacement meets the required electrical and physical specifications before installation.

Compatible Schneider Electric PLC Systems
The 990XCP98000 battery reference is associated with the Modicon Quantum automation platform.
It is used for supported Quantum CPU memory-backup applications.
For example, certain Quantum CPU models specify this battery for maintaining battery-backed RAM contents.
However, not every Schneider Electric controller uses the same backup battery.
Therefore, check the exact CPU model and manufacturer’s maintenance documentation before ordering.
Why Does a Modicon Quantum PLC Need a Backup Battery?
Industrial programmable logic controllers may use backup batteries to retain designated memory contents when normal power becomes unavailable.
For example, the supported Quantum CPU backup arrangement can help preserve battery-backed RAM data.
Furthermore, a correctly specified battery supports the controller’s intended backup function.
Nevertheless, actual retention behaviour varies by controller configuration and hardware version.
Original Schneider Electric 990XCP98000 vs Compatible Replacement
Original Schneider Electric Battery
- Schneider Electric reference 990XCP98000
- Rated voltage of 3V
- Rated capacity of 1200mAh
- Intended for supported Modicon Quantum CPU applications
Compatible Replacement Battery
- Manufactured or assembled by a third-party supplier
- Intended to replace the original battery assembly
- Must match the required electrical specifications
- Must use a suitable connector and correct polarity
- Not manufactured or endorsed by Schneider Electric
This ArcEin listing is for the compatible replacement version.
Connector and Polarity Compatibility
The battery assembly includes wired leads and a connector.
However, connectors that look similar may use different pin arrangements or polarity configurations.
Therefore, verify the connector type and polarity against the original approved battery before installation.
Incorrect connections can damage equipment or prevent the backup function from operating properly.
Battery Installation and Replacement
Industrial backup battery replacement requires careful preparation.
Before installing the replacement:
- Confirm the exact Quantum CPU model.
- Verify that the original battery reference is 990XCP98000.
- Compare the replacement’s voltage, chemistry and capacity.
- Inspect the connector, wiring and polarity.
- Follow the equipment manufacturer’s replacement instructions.
- Protect any retained PLC data according to the site maintenance procedure.
- Install the battery correctly without short-circuiting the connector.
- Check the controller’s battery-monitoring status after replacement.
Important: Incorrect replacement may result in retained-data loss or equipment downtime. Qualified personnel should perform this work using the relevant controller manual.
Battery Storage and Handling
Store unused lithium backup batteries in a suitable cool, dry environment.
Moreover, keep the connector protected from conductive objects to prevent accidental short circuits.
Inspect the cell, wire insulation and connector before installation.
Do not use damaged, leaking or visibly deteriorated batteries.
Important Battery Safety Instructions
- Never recharge this primary lithium battery.
- Avoid short-circuiting the terminals.
- Do not crush, puncture or dismantle the cell.
- Keep away from excessive heat, fire and moisture.
- Never reverse connector polarity.
- Do not install a damaged battery.
- Keep away from children.
- Dispose of exhausted batteries according to applicable regulations.
