Deta DC400 · Car battery 12V 40Ah 320A

Car battery Deta DC400 Standard 40Ah 320A 12V

The Deta DC400 from the Standard range delivers 40 Ah and 320 A of cold cranking current (EN) at 12 V: the usual specification for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in cars with a 175 × 175 × 190 mm format: same 40 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the right.

In short: the Deta DC400 (40 Ah, 320 A, 175 × 175 × 190 mm, positive terminal on the right). It is a conventional battery for cars without Start-Stop: if yours has Start-Stop, it needs an EFB or AGM battery of the same size. Verified equivalent alternatives: Exide EC400 and Tudor TC400.

• Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
• Reliable cold starts, even after weeks without driving.
• Direct replacement for the original battery in size and terminals.
• Original-equipment build quality without the dealership price.

Dimensions, polarity and mounting

In terms of format, the Deta DC400 measures 175 × 175 × 190 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 10.40 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.

What the Deta DC400 is for

Designed for passenger cars with conventional starting, without a Start-Stop system, the Deta DC400 is the direct replacement when your vehicle uses a 40 Ah battery of this format. Before buying, compare dimensions, terminals and capacity with the battery you are replacing. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 10.40 kg and B13 hold-down.

The Deta DC400: Standard range and conventional lead-acid technology

The DC400 is part of the Deta Standard range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

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.
