What it means that the DF1853 is lead-acid

Check this before ordering the Deta DF1853

  • Measure the space: the DF1853 takes up 513 × 223 × 223 mm.
  • Your current battery should say about 185 Ah; a little more is also fine.
  • Check the EN amps on your battery: if it says 1,150 A or less, the DF1853 covers your engine.

Frequently asked questions about the Deta DF1853

DF1853 or DG1803: which one suits me?

Compared with the DF1853, the Deta DG1803 has 5 Ah less and 150 A less cranking power. The DF1853 cranks harder; the DG1803 is only a good option if your original battery says 1,000 A or less. Both measure 513 × 223 × 223 mm, so they fit the same tray.

How much does the Deta DF1853 weigh?

43.9 kg, with 185 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Deta DG1803 (180 Ah) weighs 42.8 kg.

Which battery is equivalent to the Deta DF1853?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Exide EF1853, Tudor TF1853 and Fulmen FF1853. As the DF1853 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

Are truck batteries fitted in pairs?

Almost always, in series for 24 V. Replace them in matched pairs: mixing a new one with an old one unbalances charging and shortens the new one's life.
