The Wacker Neuson Battery Protector Right is a genuine OEM Battery Protector Right designed for DPU series reversible vibratory plate compactors, covering the DPU 4045, DPU 5045, DPU 5545, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 model families. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, part number meets the exact specifications of the original component installed at the factory. This part fits an extensive range of DPU configurations — including H, He, Heh, Hec, Hech, Heap, Y, Ye, Yeh, and US variants — making it the correct choice across a wide spread of diesel reversible plate compactor builds. Verify your model number against the fitment list before ordering to confirm compatibility.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional tolerances, ensuring the protector shields the battery housing with the same coverage as the part it replaces.
- Right-Side Specific: — This protector is handed — it mounts to the right side of the battery compartment. Confirm left or right orientation before purchasing to avoid a fitment mismatch.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage: — Compatible with DPU 4045, DPU 5045, DPU 5545, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 families, spanning diesel reversible vibratory plates from 40 kN through 65 kN compaction force classes.
- Protects Electrical Reliability: — A damaged or missing battery protector exposes the battery and its connections to vibration, impact, and debris — conditions that accelerate terminal corrosion and premature battery failure on high-cycle compaction work.
- Direct OEM Replacement: — Installs in the original mounting position with existing hardware, matching the original fit without modification to the battery compartment or surrounding panels.
The battery protector is a protective cover or guard that shields the battery unit on the DPU reversible vibratory plate from physical impact, compaction vibration, and jobsite debris. On diesel-powered reversible plates — machines that run under continuous high-frequency vibration — unprotected batteries are vulnerable to case cracking, loose terminals, and accelerated wear. When this protector is cracked, broken, or missing, the battery is left exposed to conditions that can cause electrical faults, failed starts, and shortened battery life. Replacing a damaged protector promptly keeps the electrical system properly protected and maintains consistent machine starting performance.
