The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Belt Guard designed for the DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact fitment and dimensional requirements of your machine as it left the factory. It is a direct drop-in replacement that installs to the original mounting points without modification. If your current guard is cracked, broken, or missing, part number restores full protection to the drive belt system.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original tooling and material specs, ensuring the guard fits flush against the belt housing with correct clearances and fastener alignment.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Mounts to the original attachment points on DPU 2540H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2560H, DPU 2560H-TS, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US plate compactors with no reworking required.
- Drive Belt Protection: — Shields the drive belt from debris, aggregate, and water intrusion that can accelerate belt wear and lead to premature failure mid-pour or mid-pass.
- Operator Safety: — Covers rotating belt and pulley components to protect operators from contact during machine operation — a critical compliance consideration on any active compaction site.
- Verified Part Number: — OEM part number 5100050070 cross-references directly to the DPU and BPU 2540/2550/2560 model lineup, so you can order with confidence.
The belt guard on a vibratory plate compactor encloses the drive belt and pulleys that transfer power from the engine to the exciter unit, which generates the compaction force. Without the guard in place, the belt is exposed to the constant barrage of loose material — gravel, sand, and debris — that gets thrown up during compaction passes, which can cut into the belt and cause rapid wear or sudden snapping. Beyond protecting the drive components, the guard also serves as a physical barrier between operators and fast-moving rotating parts, making it an essential safety component that should always be in good condition before the machine is put to work.
