The Wacker Neuson 5000220241 is a genuine OEM Eccentric Weight designed for the DPU 2560H-TS, DPU 2560H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2540H, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement sourced through the Wacker Neuson parts program, part 5000220241 is manufactured to the same specification as the original component your machine shipped with. Fitment spans both the DPU diesel reversible and BPU gasoline reversible plate compactor families, making this a widely used service part across the lineup. If your compactor is producing weak or uneven vibration, a worn or damaged eccentric weight is one of the first components to inspect.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Mass and Balance Specification — Manufactured to the exact rotational mass and geometry of the original, ensuring the correct vibration amplitude and compaction force output.
- Drop-In Replacement for the Exciter Housing — Mounts directly onto the eccentric shaft inside the vibration unit with no machining or adaptation required to the exciter assembly.
- Broad DPU and BPU Fitment — Compatible with the DPU 2560H-TS, DPU 2560H, DPU 2550H, DPU 2540H, BPU 2540A, and BPU 2540A US reversible plate compactor series.
- Restores Full Compaction Output — A correctly weighted and balanced eccentric restores the centrifugal force the machine needs to compact cohesive soil, aggregate, and sub-base material to spec depth.
- Built for High-Cycle Exciter Environments — The eccentric weight operates at sustained high RPM inside the vibration unit; OEM material and heat-treatment standards are critical to service life in this application.
The eccentric weight is the core component that generates vibration in a vibratory plate compactor. It is mounted on a shaft inside the exciter housing and rotates at high speed, creating the centrifugal force that drives the baseplate into the ground and achieves soil or aggregate compaction. When the eccentric weight cracks, chips, or becomes unbalanced through wear, the machine loses compaction force, vibration becomes irregular, and the exciter housing itself can suffer accelerated bearing wear. Replacing the eccentric weight with a correct OEM part restores the design amplitude and frequency, bringing the plate back to its rated compaction performance.
