## Description

## Car battery Deta DA612 Senator3 61Ah 600A 12V

12*V* Voltage
61*Ah* Capacity
600*A* Cold cranking
14*kg* Weight

The **Deta DA612** from the **Senator3** range delivers **61 Ah** and **600 A** of cold cranking current (EN) at **12 V**: the usual specification for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. Measuring 242 × 175 × 175 mm and the positive terminal on the right, it is the direct replacement for cars fitted from the factory with a 61 Ah battery of this format.
- Low self-discharge: copes with long stops without losing charge.
- Designed to last several years under normal daily use.
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
- Stable voltage for the vehicle electronics (ECU, sensors, climate control).

### What the Deta DA612 is for

The Deta DA612 covers the needs of passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system: reliable starting, stable voltage for the electronics and a service life of several years in daily use. Check that it matches your current battery in size and terminal position. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 14 kg and B13 hold-down.

### The Deta DA612: Senator3 range and conventional lead-acid technology

Within the Deta catalogue, the **Senator3** series groups the references designed for this use. The DA612 is the 61 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
Conventional lead-acid is the benchmark against which other technologies are compared: good cranking current, great tolerance to alternator charging and the best price per amp-hour.

### Size, terminals and hold-down of the Deta DA612

The Deta DA612 is made in the 242 × 175 × 175 mm format and weighs 14 kg. The positive terminal on the right decides which side the cables end up on: it is the detail that causes most buying mistakes, so check it before ordering. It uses a B13 hold-down, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. For a direct replacement, the current battery tray must accept these dimensions and the same terminal layout; otherwise adapters will be needed or the hold-down will change.

### Deta: the maker behind the DA612

Deta is the German brand of the Exide group: batteries built with original-equipment technology and a very complete range for cars, Start-Stop, trucks, motorcycles and leisure. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

### Care and maintenance

On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water. In normal daily use the alternator keeps the battery charged; if the car stands for weeks, a maintenance charge once a month prevents deep discharge.

### Manufacturer's warranty

The Deta DA612 comes with the **manufacturer's official warranty** against manufacturing defects; the exact period is stated in the brand's conditions. If it fails through a defect within the period, we replace it free of charge.

### Shipping, delivery and returns

Order **before 6:00 pm** with stock available and it leaves today: mainland Spain and Portugal receive it in 24-48 working hours, the islands and the rest of the EU in 3 to 5 days. You have **14 days** to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How is the Deta DA612 battery installed in the vehicle?

In most cars it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the right match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On cars with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### How long does the Deta DA612 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Deta DA612 is 4 to 6 years in regular car use without Start-Stop. In cold regions it drops slightly due to cold-start stress; in very hot regions it also drops because of electrolyte evaporation. To extend its life: avoid deep discharges (headlights on with engine off), have the alternator checked yearly, and keep the battery clean and properly secured.

### What are the measurements of the DA612 model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 242×175×175 mm — also written as 242x175x175 mm and correspond to the European LB2 case size — following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your car before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals.

### What polarity does the Deta DA612 battery have?

Polarity: positive on the right. To identify it, place the battery in front of you with the terminals facing you and check which side the positive (+, marked with a red ring) is on. Before buying, verify the polarity matches your current battery: switching polarity forces longer cables or system reconfiguration, with short-circuit risk.

### Is the DA612 valid for my vehicle?

Three options to confirm: 1) enter your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA auto-detect your model and engine); 2) check the "Compatible vehicles" tab on this page, where we list every vehicle verified by our technical team; 3) if you cannot find your model, message us on WhatsApp with brand, model, engine and year — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The DA612 fits 510 verified vehicle versions in our database.

### What are the equivalents of the DA612 model?

Directly interchangeable batteries (same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and CCA) are the OEM equivalents from leading brands: Bosch, Tudor, Exide and, depending on the model, Banner or Yuasa. Exact equivalence depends on technology — an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop cars. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level.
