Truck battery Deta DG1553 StartPRO 155Ah 900A 12V
The Deta DG1553 with conventional lead-acid technology delivers 155 Ah at 12 V and 900 A of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. Measuring 513 × 223 × 223 mm and the positive terminal on the left, it is the direct replacement for trucks fitted from the factory with a 155 Ah battery of this format.
In short: the Deta DG1553 (155 Ah, 900 A, 513 × 223 × 223 mm, positive terminal on the left). Verified equivalent alternatives: Varta L2 and Exide EG1553.
- Powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops.
- Better tolerance to deep discharge than a conventional starter battery.
- Good balance of capacity, cranking power and price.
- Resistant to constant chassis vibration.
Vehicles compatible with the Deta DG1553
The Deta DG1553 is compatible with more than 280 vehicles: it is fitted as original equipment or as a replacement by brands such as Fiat, Fendt, Case, Universal, Massey Ferguson and International-Harvester. For anyone who needs to replace the battery in their Fiat or Fendt, this Deta DG1553 reproduces the original specifications. Models from Case International, Laverda, Paget (valmet), Bolinders - Volvo, Zetor, Liebherr, Zettelmeyer and Bröyt are added to that list. It is checked against 15 original-equipment references from different manufacturers.
Will it fit your current battery tray?
It has external dimensions of 513 × 223 × 223 mm and weighs 40.20 kg. The positive terminal on the left 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 B00 hold-down and 1 terminals, the system that anchors and connects it in the vehicle. Checking the three dimensions and the terminal position before buying avoids the most common mistake when replacing a battery.
What Deta does differently
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 DG1553: StartPRO range and conventional lead-acid technology
Within the Deta catalogue, the StartPRO series groups the references designed for this use. The DG1553 is the 155 Ah model of that family, with the same performance as its siblings in other sizes.
The conventional lead-acid battery remains the most widespread technology thanks to its balance of capacity, cranking current and price. Well maintained and kept charged, it offers years of reliable service in vehicles without Start-Stop.
Usage and maintenance tips
During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery. In 24 V installations, check periodically that both batteries show the same voltage; an imbalance means one is failing.
Warranty and coverage
The Deta DG1553 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.
When you get it and how to return it
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
Why does my lorry have two batteries?
Most lorries, buses and tractors run on 24 V with two 12 V batteries connected in series. Always replace both at the same time and with the same model: if one is new and the other old, they become unbalanced and both last less.
How long does the Deta DG1553 battery last?
As a rough estimate, the Deta DG1553 typically lasts 4 to 6 years in normal lorry use; it is a guide figure, not a guaranteed period. It can vary considerably with usage (short or long journeys), temperature, the condition of the alternator and charging system, power drawn with the engine off and maintenance, plus the truck itself and Start-Stop. Cold demands more at every start and intense heat evaporates the electrolyte.
What are the dimensions of the Deta DG1553 battery?
Measure the battery tray before ordering: a one-millimetre difference is enough for the hold-down clamp not to close. It measures 513×223×223 mm in length × width × height, with the terminals included in the height.
On which side is the positive of the DG1553 model?
Polarity of the Deta DG1553: positive on the left. Seen from the front, terminals towards you, the positive (+) is the post with the red ring. Compare it with the battery you are replacing: if it does not match, cables must be lengthened or the system reconfigured, with a risk of short circuit.
Is the DG1553 valid for my vehicle?
Not sure? Try your number plate in the finder (DGT/DVLA/KBA detect model and engine) or the "Compatible vehicles" tab, checked by our technical team; if your truck is not there, send us make, model, engine and year on WhatsApp and we will reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:30–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). In every case, the truck manufacturer's specifications (owner's handbook) take precedence. According to our data, 141 verified vehicle versions are compatible with the DG1553.
What are the equivalents of the DG1553 model?
Interchangeable means the same dimensions, same polarity, same Ah and same CCA; for the DG1553, 155 Ah (900 A cranking). Technology matters too: in Start-Stop trucks, an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery. The options at the same level are in the "Equivalents" section of this page.
Deta DG1553 or Varta M12: which one to choose?
It is the verified Varta equivalent for the DG1553 tray. Compared with the DG1553 it has 25 Ah more and 500 A of cold cranking more. It costs €179.40 more. Decide by price, brand preference and availability: both fit and crank the same.
Deta DG1553 or Tudor TF1853: which one to choose?
Same case and same fitting as the DG1553, from Tudor. Compared with the DG1553 it has 30 Ah more and 250 A of cold cranking more. It costs €177.40 more. If you want to save or the DG1553 is out of stock, it is the safe alternative: same dimensions, same polarity and official warranty.
