## Quick description

The Varta TZ7S (FA) (ETN 506 909 010, also written 506909010) is a motorcycle battery (AGM) with 12 V, 6 Ah and 100 A cold cranking current, measuring 113 × 70 × 105 mm, with the positive terminal on the right.

## Description

## Who the Varta TZ7S (FA) is for

The Varta TZ7S (FA) is a motorcycle starter battery: compact, vibration-resistant and with just the right power to turn the starter motor and feed the electronics. It handles frame vibration and idle periods better than an adapted car battery.
At 6 Ah it is a small battery, typical of 50 to 125 cc scooters and light motorcycles. Varta lists the TZ7S (FA) in its Powersports AGM Active line. [The full range of Varta batteries](https://bateriasonline.es/en/varta-batteries)

## Varta TZ7S (FA) vs TTZ7S-BS, YTX7L-BS and YTX7L (FA)

Torn between the TZ7S (FA) and another similar Varta? This is what changes:

| Model | Capacity | Cold cranking (EN) | Dimensions (mm) | Positive | Weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Varta TZ7S (FA) (this one) | 6 Ah | 100 A | 113 × 70 × 105 | right | 2.13 kg |
| Varta TTZ7S-BS | 5 Ah | 120 A | 113 × 70 × 105 | right | 2.14 kg |
| Varta YTX7L-BS | 6 Ah | 100 A | 114 × 71 × 131 | right | 2.35 kg |
| Varta YTX7L (FA) | 6 Ah | 100 A | 113 × 70 × 130 | right | 2.31 kg |
| Varta YTX5L-4 (FA) | 4 Ah | 75 A | 113 × 70 × 105 | right | 1.8 kg |

- Varta TTZ7S-BS: 1 Ah less, 20 A more cranking power, the same dimensions.
- Varta YTX7L-BS: the same capacity, the same cranking power, a different height (131 mm instead of 105 mm). It only fits if there is room for 131 mm of height.
- Varta YTX7L (FA): the same capacity, the same cranking power, a different height (130 mm instead of 105 mm). It only fits if there is room for 130 mm of height.
- Varta YTX5L-4 (FA): 2 Ah less, 25 A less cranking power, the same dimensions.

## Before ordering the TZ7S (FA), check this

- Cold cranking: 100 A (EN), equal to or higher than the original.
- Capacity of the TZ7S (FA): 6 Ah; the same as your current battery or slightly more is fine.
- With the terminals facing you, the positive terminal of the TZ7S (FA) is on the right.
- The TZ7S (FA) needs 113 × 70 × 105 mm of space: measure it with the hold-down clamp in place.

## Frequently asked questions about the Varta TZ7S (FA)

### TZ7S (FA) or TTZ7S-BS: which one suits me?

Compared with the TZ7S (FA), the Varta TTZ7S-BS has 1 Ah less and 20 A more cranking power. If your current battery says 120 A or more, choose the TTZ7S-BS; if it says 100 A or less, the TZ7S (FA) is enough. Both measure 113 × 70 × 105 mm, so they fit the same tray.

### Varta TZ7S (FA) or YTX7L-BS/YTX7L (FA): what changes?

Mainly the height: the TZ7S (FA) is 105 mm tall and the Varta YTX7L-BS 131 mm, with the same length and width. In capacity and cranking power, the YTX7L-BS offers 6 Ah and 100 A against 6 Ah and 100 A. The Varta YTX7L (FA) is 130 mm tall, with 6 Ah and 100 A. Before choosing between the TZ7S (FA) and the YTX7L-BS, measure the free height of the battery compartment with the cover or bonnet closed.

### Is the Varta 506909010 the same battery as the Varta TZ7S (FA)?

Yes. 506909010 is the ETN code Varta uses for its TZ7S (FA) battery, so you can search for it by either code.

### How much does the Varta TZ7S (FA) weigh?

2.13 kg, with 6 Ah of capacity. For reference, the Varta TTZ7S-BS (5 Ah) weighs 2.14 kg.

### Which battery is equivalent to the Varta TZ7S (FA)?

Only other AGM batteries with its dimensions and polarity: Exide AGM12-7, Exide ETZ7-BS and Motobatt MBTZ7S. Neither an EFB nor a conventional battery replaces the TZ7S (FA).

### Which side is the positive terminal on the Varta TZ7S (FA)?

On the TZ7S (FA), the positive terminal is on the right with the terminals facing you: compare it with your current battery, because with reversed polarity the cables will not reach.

### How do I stop the motorcycle battery going flat in winter?

Connect it to a maintenance charger or disconnect it if the bike will sit for more than a month. A flat motorcycle battery sulphates in a few weeks.

## Inside the TZ7S (FA): AGM technology

The TZ7S (FA) is AGM: the electrolyte is absorbed in glass fibre mats, so it is sealed and spill-proof. It withstands many more cycles than a conventional lead battery, at the cost of being more sensitive to overcharging.
