What the Deta DF1202 is for

The Deta DF1202 is designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. In 24 V installations with two batteries in series, replace both at the same time to avoid imbalance. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 27.50 kg, 1 terminals and B01 hold-down.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Deta DF1202

The Deta DF1202 is made in the 349 × 175 × 235 mm format and weighs 27.50 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 B01 hold-down and 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Before replacing it, measure your current battery tray: if all three dimensions and the terminal positions match, the swap is direct and needs no adapters.

Why choose Deta batteries

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. We guarantee that every Deta arrives new, charged and with the manufacturer's full warranty.

The Deta DF1202: PowerPRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

The PowerPRO is the Deta range the DF1202 belongs to: it shares the same construction and quality criteria with the rest of the series, and varies in capacity and format to suit each vehicle.

In a conventional battery the electrolyte is liquid and the lead plates are immersed in it. It is a mature, economical and easily recycled technology, ideal for starting vehicles in normal use.

How to make it last longer

During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery. On batteries with filler caps, check the electrolyte level and top up only with distilled water.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Deta DF1202 comes with the manufacturer's official warranty against manufacturing defects. An important note for commercial vehicles: most trucks use two batteries connected in series (24 V installation). If you replace only one, the new battery works alongside the old one, which has already lost capacity; that imbalance shortens its life and the manufacturer may treat it as misuse. Always replace both at the same time.
