The Wacker Neuson 5100026388 Baffle Plate is a genuine OEM component designed for DPU80 and DPU90 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. This includes a wide range of Lec and Lem engine variants — covering the DPU80Lec670, DPU80Lec770, DPU80Lem670, DPU80Lem770, DPU80rLec670, DPU80rLec770, DPU80rLem670, DPU80rLem770, DPU90Lec670, DPU90Lec770, DPU90Lem770, and their US-market counterparts. As a genuine Wacker Neuson part, the 5100026388 is manufactured to the same specifications as the original, ensuring a direct, hassle-free installation with no guesswork on fit or function. When your DPU plate compactor needs a baffle plate, sourcing the correct OEM part protects your investment and keeps the machine operating as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured by Wacker Neuson to the same material and dimensional standards as the original part, ensuring correct airflow management within the machine's enclosure.
- Broad DPU80 and DPU90 Compatibility — Fits a wide range of Lec and Lem engine configurations across both the DPU80 and DPU90 reversible plate compactor families, including US-market models.
- Drop-In Replacement — Designed to mount in the same position and orientation as the original baffle plate, with no cutting, drilling, or adaptation needed during installation.
- Protects Engine and Drive Components — A properly fitted baffle plate directs heat and debris away from sensitive internal components, helping maintain consistent operating temperatures during heavy compaction cycles.
- Supports Long-Term Machine Health — A cracked, missing, or deformed baffle plate can allow heat buildup and contaminant ingress, accelerating wear on surrounding components. Replacing it promptly restores proper protection.
A baffle plate is a structural deflector panel mounted inside the machine's protective housing or engine bay. Its primary role is to channel airflow, manage heat distribution, and shield internal components from debris and vibration byproducts generated during compaction. On heavy-duty reversible plate compactors like the DPU80 and DPU90 series, which operate under sustained load on soil and aggregate, maintaining controlled internal temperatures is critical to preventing premature wear on the engine and exciter unit. When a baffle plate becomes cracked, warped, or missing entirely, heat can accumulate in unintended areas and loose material can reach components that would otherwise be protected, leading to accelerated deterioration and unplanned maintenance.
