The Bomag 05579408 Heating Unit is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 145 and BW 177 series single drum rollers and the BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred roller. Sourced directly from Bomag, this heating unit matches the original assembly in every respect, ensuring a clean, straightforward installation with no guesswork on fitment. Confirmed compatibility covers the BW 145 D-5, BW 145 DH-5, BW 145 PDH-5, BW 177 D-5, BW 177 DH-5, BW 177 PDH-5, BW 177 BVC-5, BW 177-5, and BW 11 RH-5. When operating in cold conditions, a properly functioning heating unit is critical to operator comfort and machine readiness — replacing a worn or failed unit with a genuine OEM part restores full heating performance and keeps your crew productive through the cold months.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Heating Output — manufactured to Bomag's original thermal and airflow specifications, delivering the same cabin heat performance as the unit it replaces
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — matches the original mounting configuration, connections, and dimensions of part number 05579408 for a clean, straightforward swap
- Broad Single Drum Roller Coverage — fits BW 145 D-5, BW 145 DH-5, BW 145 PDH-5, BW 177 D-5, BW 177 DH-5, BW 177 PDH-5, BW 177 BVC-5, and BW 177-5 single drum rollers, as well as the BW 11 RH-5 pneumatic tyred roller
- Cold-Weather Operational Reliability — a functioning heating unit maintains safe cab temperatures, supporting operator focus and sustained productivity on cold-weather paving and compaction sites
- Safety-Relevant Cabin System — adequate cab heating is critical for operator alertness and defogging visibility; replacing a failed unit promptly reduces risks associated with cold-impaired operation
The heating unit in a BOMAG roller is responsible for warming the operator cab, drawing heat from the engine cooling circuit or a dedicated fuel-fired system and distributing it through the cab interior. A properly working heating unit keeps the operator comfortable and alert during cold-weather compaction work and helps maintain clear visibility by defrosting cab glass. When the heating unit fails or degrades, the cab becomes uncomfortable or dangerously cold, and condensation on windows can create visibility hazards — making prompt replacement with a correctly specified OEM unit essential.
