Deta DG1803 · Truck battery 12V 180Ah 1000A

Truck battery Deta DG1803 StartPRO 180Ah 1,000A 12V

With 180 Ah and 1,000 A of cold cranking current (EN), the Deta DG1803 from the StartPRO range is built for professional use in trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in trucks with a 513 × 223 × 223 mm format: same 180 Ah capacity and the positive terminal on the left.

• Conventional lead-acid: the most proven and economical technology.
• Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use.
• Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines.
• Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series.

What the Deta DG1803 is for

With 180 Ah, the Deta DG1803 cranks large-displacement diesel engines in the cold and powers tachograph, fridge and heater during rest stops. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 42.80 kg and B00 hold-down.

The Deta DG1803: StartPRO range and conventional lead-acid technology

The DG1803 is part of the Deta StartPRO range. Choosing the right reference within the series comes down to capacity, dimensions and terminals: technology and quality are common to the whole family.

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.

Size, terminals and hold-down of the Deta DG1803

In terms of format, the Deta DG1803 measures 513 × 223 × 223 mm (length × width × height) and weighs 42.80 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, 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 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.

Care and maintenance

During rest stops with active loads, avoid repeated deep discharges: they shorten the life of any starter battery. Keep the terminals clean and tight and the battery firmly secured against chassis vibration.

Manufacturer's warranty

The Deta DG1803 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.

Delivery times 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.
