The Wacker Neuson Pressure Switch is a genuine OEM component designed for the RC50, RC50P, RC70, RC70P, and RC70VO single drum soil compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this pressure switch maintains the precise sensing thresholds required to keep critical systems operating within safe parameters on these large-area soil compaction machines. Fitment covers both standard and US-market variants across the full RC-series lineup. Verify your machine's model number before ordering to ensure correct application.
Key Features
- OEM-Spec Sensing Threshold — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact pressure ratings, ensuring the switch opens and closes at the correct set points for the RC-series hydraulic and lubrication systems.
- Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original port thread, connector type, and mounting configuration of the factory-installed switch for a straightforward service swap.
- Broad RC-Series Compatibility — Fits RC50, RC50P, RC70, RC70P, and RC70VO single drum soil compactors, including US-market variants, across multiple production runs.
- Protects Critical Machine Systems — A correctly functioning pressure switch triggers warnings or shutdowns before low oil or hydraulic pressure causes internal component damage; a failed switch removes that protection entirely.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, ensuring the component meets the same quality and material standards as the original part it replaces.
A pressure switch monitors fluid pressure within the machine's hydraulic or engine lubrication circuit and sends an electrical signal when pressure drops below a safe operating threshold. On a single drum soil compactor like the RC50 or RC70, this signal typically activates a warning indicator or triggers an automatic shutdown to prevent serious mechanical damage. When the switch fails or provides an inaccurate reading, the machine loses that safeguard — either running unprotected through a low-pressure condition or shutting down unnecessarily due to a false reading. Replacing a worn or faulty pressure switch with a genuine OEM unit restores the accuracy the protection system depends on.
