The Wacker Neuson Contact Safety Device is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, part ensures the machine's safety system operates exactly as Wacker Neuson engineered it. This part is sourced directly through authorized Wacker Neuson supply channels, so you can be confident in its fitment and function. If your DPU 7060 series machine is showing safety system faults or the contact device is damaged, this is the correct OEM replacement to restore full operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Integrity — Manufactured to exact contact resistance and switching specifications, ensuring the safety circuit performs consistently under heavy-duty compaction cycles.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original mounting points and connector interface on DPU 7060 series plates, allowing straightforward installation without modification.
- Confirmed DPU 7060 Series Fitment — Verified for the DPU 7060SC (Remote Control), DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Keeps Safety Systems Fully Operational — A functional contact safety device is essential for proper machine shutdown and operator protection; a failed unit can disable critical safety interlocks.
- Operator Safety Compliance — Restores the machine's safety interlock circuit to its original design standard, an important consideration on remote-controlled and reversible compaction equipment where uncontrolled operation poses a direct hazard.
The contact safety device monitors and controls a critical switching point in the machine's safety circuit. On reversible vibratory plate compactors like the DPU 7060 series, this device acts as an interlock — detecting operating conditions and cutting power or triggering a shutdown response when a fault or unsafe state is detected. When the contact safety device fails or wears out, the machine may fail to shut down correctly, trigger false fault codes, or lose safety interlock function entirely, all of which present a risk to the operator and can bring compaction work to a halt.
