It measures 260 Γ— 173 Γ— 206 mm and the positive terminal on the left, the format sought by anyone replacing a 50 Ah battery in trucks. - Heavy Duty construction for intensive professional use. - AGM technology: absorbed electrolyte, no spills, can be mounted at an angle. - Designed for 24 V installations with two batteries in series. - Powerful cold cranking for large-displacement diesel engines. ### What the Deta DJ050C is for The Deta DJ050C 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 17.90 kg and B07 hold-down. ### The Deta DJ050C: PowerPRO y Construction range and AGM technology The **PowerPRO y Construction** is the Deta range the DJ050C 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. AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology seals the electrolyte in glass microfibre. The result is a maintenance-free battery that is highly vibration-resistant and able to withstand deep discharges that would ruin a classic lead-acid battery. ### Dimensions, polarity and mounting The Deta DJ050C is made in the 260 Γ— 173 Γ— 206 mm format and weighs 17.90 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 B07 hold-down, 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. ### Deta: the maker behind the DJ050C 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. All the Deta batteries in our catalogue are genuine product, recently manufactured and covered by the manufacturer's warranty. ### How to make it last longer Charge with a charger that has an AGM mode: it limits the voltage and protects the glass-fibre separators. In 24 V installations, check periodically that both batteries show the same voltage; an imbalance means one is failing. ### Warranty and coverage The Deta DJ050C 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 ### Is the Deta DJ050C an AGM battery and what are the benefits of AGM? Yes. The DJ050C from Deta uses AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology: a sealed lead-acid battery where the electrolyte is absorbed in a glass-fibre mat. It withstands more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional one, handles heat better and is the required technology for trucks with advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking. Expected lifespan: 5-8 years under normal conditions. ### Is the Deta DJ050C battery suitable for Start-Stop? Yes. As AGM technology it is designed for Start-Stop vehicles. AGM batteries support advanced Start-Stop and regenerative braking thanks to their higher cycle count. EFB is recommended for basic Start-Stop; AGM is recommended when regenerative braking is also present, thanks to its higher cycle capability. It works straight out of the box β€” on most modern vehicles registering the battery via OBD is recommended so the alternator automatically applies the optimal charging profile. ### How long does the Deta DJ050C battery last? Expected lifespan of the Deta DJ050C is 5 to 7 years in lorry use, even with high power draw while parked. 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 size is this battery? Dimensions (length Γ— width Γ— height) are 260Γ—173Γ—206 mm β€” also written as 260x173x206 mm β€” following the European DIN standard. Always measure the space in your truck before buying: even one extra millimetre can prevent the hold-down clamp from closing. The height shown includes the terminals. ### On which side is the positive of the DJ050C model? Polarity: positive on the left. 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. ### Will the Deta DJ050C battery fit my truck? 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 β€” we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The DJ050C typically fits a wide range of European vehicles thanks to its standard DIN case format. ### What are the equivalents of the DJ050C 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 β€” an EFB cannot be replaced with a conventional battery in Start-Stop trucks. See the "Equivalents" section to view recommended options at the same performance level. ### What advantages does the Deta DJ050C AGM battery offer over an EFB? AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology uses absorbent fibreglass that retains the electrolyte, eliminating leaks and allowing up to 3Γ— more charge/discharge cycles than a conventional battery. It is the recommended option when the truck has advanced Start-Stop with regenerative braking (BMW EfficientDynamics, Mercedes Eco, Audi MHEV, Land Rover ECO, Volvo i-Stop). Withstands tilted positions, high vibration and extreme temperatures better than EFB. The Deta DJ050C is fully original and meets European EN 50342-6 standards for advanced Start-Stop. ### Do I need to register the Deta DJ050C on the truck after installation? On most trucks it is not strictly necessary β€” the alternator detects the new battery and adapts the charge automatically. It is recommended to register the battery via OBD so that the alternator applies the optimal charging profile from the first minute and extends the battery life as much as possible (especially on brands with sophisticated BMS: BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Volvo, Land Rover). Any workshop with an OBD scanner (~10-15 € labour) does it in 5 minutes. DIY apps: VCDS / Carista (VAG), Bimmercode (BMW), iCarsoft. If you do not register, the truck will still start correctly β€” the alternator just takes a few days to adjust the profile. The Deta DJ050C ships factory-charged at 80-90% so you can use it straight after fitting. ## Equivalent batteries - [EXIDE EP450](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-exide-ep450-12v-50ah-750a) - [EXIDE EM1000](https://baterias.com/gb/battery-exide-em1000-12v-50ah-800a) ## Technical team (editorial authorship) The FAQs, guides and comparisons on this site are reviewed by the baterias.com technical team β€” automotive battery specialists since 2012. β†’ https://baterias.com/gb/technical-team --- *baterias.com β€” Automotive batteries Β· 2026-10-30*
