The Bomag 05011668 Sensor is a genuine OEM component designed for BW 177 DH-40, BW 177 PDH-40, BW 177 D-40, and BW177PDH 40 single drum rollers. Sourced directly from Bomag, this sensor delivers an exact match to the original specification, ensuring it connects and functions just as the factory-installed unit does. This part covers the full BW 177 series single drum roller lineup listed above, making it the dependable choice when replacement is needed.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Signal Accuracy — manufactured to Bomag's original electrical specification, so the sensor outputs the correct readings your machine's control system depends on
- Direct Plug-In Replacement — matches the original connector, mounting, and housing geometry for a straightforward swap on BW 177-series single drum rollers
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for the BW 177 DH-40, BW 177 PDH-40, BW 177 D-40, and BW177PDH 40 single drum rollers
- Protects Machine Control Systems — a correctly functioning sensor keeps compaction monitoring, drum speed control, and operator feedback operating as designed; a faulty sensor can trigger false alerts or mask real performance issues
- Operational Safety Assurance — sensor accuracy is directly tied to correct machine response; using a genuine OEM part maintains the integrity of the control and safety systems on your roller
A sensor on a single drum roller monitors a critical operating parameter — such as drum rotation, travel speed, or vibration frequency — and relays that data to the machine's control unit. This feedback loop allows the roller to regulate compaction output and alert the operator to any abnormal condition. When a sensor fails or delivers inaccurate readings, the machine may behave erratically, display incorrect data, or disable key functions entirely — interrupting compaction work and potentially masking underlying mechanical issues. Replacing a worn or failed sensor with a genuine Bomag part, such as part number 05011668, restores the accurate signal the control system requires to keep the roller performing correctly.
