The Bomag 05973024 Level Sending Unit is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this sending unit matches the original specification installed at the factory, ensuring accurate fluid-level monitoring on your machine. This level sending unit fits all four covered BC-series refuse and landfill compactor variants, making it the correct choice for operators maintaining any of these models.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Signal Accuracy — manufactured to Bomag's original output and resistance specifications, delivering consistent, accurate level readings the machine's monitoring system can rely on
- Direct-Fit Replacement — engineered to the same connector type, thread, and mounting configuration as the original unit, allowing a straightforward swap without adapters or modification
- Broad BC-Series Coverage — fits BC 972 RB, BC 1172 RB, BC 972 RB-2, and BC 1172 RB-2 refuse and landfill compactors, covering both standard and second-generation variants in the lineup
- Protects Against Fluid-Level Faults — a correctly functioning sending unit keeps the operator accurately informed, preventing over-run conditions caused by false or missing level data
- Verified Bomag Part Number — order with confidence using part number 05973024, confirmed against Bomag's OEM catalog for these BC-series refuse compactor applications
The level sending unit monitors the fluid level inside a reservoir or tank and transmits a corresponding signal to the machine's gauge or warning system. On heavy refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB series, accurate level sensing is critical — it alerts the operator before fluid drops to a point that could damage components or interrupt compaction operations. When a sending unit fails or drifts out of calibration, the gauge may read incorrectly or trigger false warnings, making diagnosis difficult and leaving the machine vulnerable to undetected low-fluid conditions.
