The Wacker Neuson Battery Protector Right is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU series heavy-duty diesel reversible vibratory plate compactors. This protective component fits a wide range of DPU models including the DPU 4045, DPU 5045, DPU 5545, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 series machines. As a genuine Wacker Neuson part, the is manufactured to the same tolerances and specifications as the original, ensuring a direct, accurate fit across all compatible variants. Verify your model number before ordering to confirm compatibility with your specific machine configuration.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Molded and finished to the same material grade and dimensional tolerances as the original factory-installed protector, ensuring the battery housing interface seats correctly without modification.
- Right-Hand Specific Fitment: — Designed exclusively for the right-side battery protection position; side-specific geometry ensures correct alignment and secure retention on the DPU compactor frame.
- Broad DPU Series Compatibility: — Covers DPU 4045, DPU 4545, DPU 5045, DPU 5545, DPU 6055, and DPU 6555 series reversible diesel vibratory plate compactors across multiple production configurations.
- Shields Battery from Jobsite Impact: — Protects the battery and its mounting area from mechanical impact, vibration fatigue, and debris exposure inherent to heavy compaction work — keeping the electrical start system operational.
- Electrical System Protection: — A damaged or missing battery protector exposes battery terminals and connections to compaction vibration and site debris, which can cause electrical faults or a no-start condition; replacing a worn protector promptly preserves starting reliability.
The battery protector is a structural guard component mounted to the compactor frame on the right side of the battery compartment. Its role is to absorb and deflect mechanical impact, shield battery terminals from vibration-induced wear, and prevent debris ingress that could compromise the electrical connections powering the machine's start system. On diesel reversible plate compactors like the DPU series — which operate in demanding trench and soil compaction environments — this protection is especially critical, as continuous high-frequency vibration and ground-contact debris place sustained stress on the battery mounting area. When the protector becomes cracked, broken, or missing, the battery and its connections are left vulnerable, increasing the risk of electrical faults and unreliable starting.
