  • Varta YB30L-B: identical to the 530030030 except for the positive terminal, which is on the other side (positive terminal on the left).
  • Varta 525015030: 5 Ah less, the same cranking power, a different case (184 × 124 × 170 mm).

What to look at before buying the 530030030

  • Measure the space: the 530030030 takes up 186 × 130 × 171 mm.
  • Polarity of the 530030030: positive terminal on the right (if yours has it on the other side, the cables will not reach).
  • Capacity of the 530030030: 30 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
  • The 530030030 delivers 300 A cold cranking (EN standard); do not go below what your original battery states.

Frequently asked questions about the Varta 530030030

530030030 or 530909030: which one suits me?

Compared with the 530030030, the Varta 530909030 has AGM technology. With the same 30 Ah and 300 A, the difference is the technology. Choose the 530909030 if your car left the factory with AGM; if it had lead-acid, either will do. Mind the space: the 530909030 measures 184 × 124 × 170 mm.

Varta 530030030 or YB30L-B: what is the difference?

Only the polarity: the 530030030 has the positive terminal on the right and the YB30L-B the positive terminal on the left. Capacity (30 Ah), cranking power and dimensions are identical. That is why their ETNs only differ in the middle group: 530 030 030 for the 530030030 and 530 034 030 for the YB30L-B.

What does the code 530 030 030 on the Varta 530030030 mean?

It is its ETN (European Type Number), also written 530030030. The first three digits (530) encode voltage and capacity: 12 V and 30 Ah (5xx = under 100 Ah, 6xx = 100 to 199 Ah, 7xx = 200 Ah or more). The middle group (030) identifies the specific model within that capacity, and the last three digits (030) multiplied by 10 give the cold cranking current: 300 A. Its twin with the positive terminal on the other side, the Varta YB30L-B, is 530 034 030: only the middle group changes.

How much does the Varta 530030030 weigh?

8.41 kg, with 30 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Varta 530909030 (30 Ah) weighs 8.55 kg.

Which battery is equivalent to the Varta 530030030?

With the same dimensions, polarity and similar capacity you have the Fulbat 53030, Exide E60-N30L-B and Exide E60-N30L-A. As the 530030030 is a conventional battery, an EFB or AGM of the same size also works.

Which charger does the Varta 530030030 need?

An automatic lead-acid charger with cut-off or maintenance mode, rated at 10 to 20% of its capacity in amps. If it is a vented type, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.

Inside the 530030030: lead-acid technology

The 530030030 is a conventional lead-acid battery, with plates immersed in liquid electrolyte. Avoid leaving them discharged, as they sulphate, and charge them with a charger that cuts off or switches to maintenance when finished.
