## Description

## Truck battery Fulmen FJ1723 PowerPRO y Construction 172Ah 1,390A 12V

12*V* Voltage
172*Ah* Capacity
1,390*A* Cold cranking
48.80*kg* Weight

The **Fulmen FJ1723** with conventional lead-acid technology delivers **172 Ah** at **12 V** and **1,390 A** of cold cranking current (EN): what trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery demand. It replaces the original battery without adaptation in trucks with a 513 × 223 × 223 mm format: same 172 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 Fulmen FJ1723 is for

Designed for trucks, buses, tractors and heavy machinery, the Fulmen FJ1723 withstands constant chassis vibration and discharges during stops with active loads. Check that it matches your current battery in dimensions, terminals and hold-down: this reference has a weight of 48.80 kg, 1 terminals and B00 hold-down.

### Size, terminals and hold-down of the Fulmen FJ1723

The Fulmen FJ1723 is made in the 513 × 223 × 223 mm format and weighs 48.80 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 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.

### Fulmen: the maker behind the FJ1723

Fulmen is the historic French brand of the Exide group: batteries made on the same lines and with the same technology as original equipment, widely used by workshops across Europe. At baterias.com we work directly with the manufacturer or its official distributor: real stock, brand-new product and official warranty.

### The Fulmen FJ1723: PowerPRO y Construction range and conventional lead-acid technology

The FJ1723 is part of the Fulmen **PowerPRO y Construction** 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.

### Usage and maintenance tips

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.

### Warranty and coverage

The Fulmen FJ1723 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 [[ks:cutoff]]** 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 **[[ks:return_days]] days** to return it if it has not been installed, with free collection on the mainland, and shipment tracking by email.

## Frequently asked questions

### How is the Fulmen FJ1723 battery installed in the vehicle?

In most trucks it fits in 15-30 minutes with a 10 mm wrench; if the battery is under the seat or in the boot the time can double. See the step-by-step guide on our blog. Quick summary: 1) switch off the engine and remove the key; 2) locate the original battery (engine bay, boot or under seat); 3) disconnect the negative (−) terminal first, then the positive (+); 4) loosen the hold-down clamp and remove the old battery; 5) fit the new one in the same orientation — with positive on the left match the polarity shown on the product sheet; 6) connect the positive (+) first, then the negative (−). On trucks with Start-Stop or BMS, register the battery via OBD so the alternator applies the correct charging profile.

### How long does the Fulmen FJ1723 battery last?

Expected lifespan of the Fulmen FJ1723 is 4 to 6 years in regular truck use without Start-Stop. 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 are the measurements of the FJ1723 model?

Dimensions (length × width × height) are 513×223×223 mm — also written as 513x223x223 mm — 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 FJ1723 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.

### Is the FJ1723 valid for my vehicle?

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 — we reply during business hours (Mon–Fri 10:00–13:30 and 16:40–18:00 (Spanish time, CET)). The FJ1723 fits 141 verified vehicle versions in our database.

### What are the equivalents of the FJ1723 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 — 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.
