Key Features
- OEM-Grade Housing Protection — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to original design tolerances, ensuring the protector properly shields the battery terminal area against impact, debris, and vibration exposure common on compaction worksites.
- Right-Side Direct Replacement — Replaces the right-hand battery protector only; installs in the original mounting position without modification to surrounding hardware or battery mounting brackets.
- Broad DPU Series Compatibility — Fits DPU 4045, DPU 5045, DPU 5545, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors across multiple configurations, including diesel-powered H, He, Heh, Hec, Y, Yeh, and US-market variants.
- Guards Against Electrical Damage — A damaged or missing battery protector leaves the battery assembly exposed to direct impact and vibration, which can lead to terminal corrosion, loose connections, or premature battery failure on heavy-use compactors.
- Verified Genuine OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson; part number 5000124969 cross-references to the correct application across all listed DPU model configurations.
The battery protector is a structural cover that shields the battery and its terminal connections from physical damage caused by vibration, jobsite debris, and incidental impact — conditions that are routine during compaction work. On reversible vibratory plate compactors like the DPU series, the battery powers the electric start system and any onboard electronics, making its protection critical to reliable starting and operation. When the protector cracks, breaks, or goes missing, the exposed battery becomes vulnerable to damage that can result in starting failures or accelerated wear to the electrical system.
