The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Elbow Fitting designed for the E5000 Ground Heater, HP252, Pureheat Hydronic Heater, and CH5000 Cross Heater series. As a direct OEM replacement, this fitting is manufactured to the exact specifications required for proper fluid routing within Wacker Neuson hydronic and ground heating systems. It is confirmed to fit gas-burner, diesel-burner, and oil-burner variants across the E5000, Pureheat, and CH5000 product lines. Sourcing genuine OEM parts like the ensures the integrity of sealed fluid connections and keeps your heating system operating as designed.
Key Features
- OEM-Matched Flow Geometry — Manufactured to the exact bend angle and bore diameter specified by Wacker Neuson, ensuring unobstructed fluid flow through the heating circuit without restriction or turbulence at the joint.
- Drop-In Replacement — Threads and connection interfaces match the original fitting exactly, allowing straightforward installation without reworking adjacent hose or pipe runs.
- Broad Heater Family Coverage — A single part number covers gas-burner, diesel-burner, and oil-burner configurations across the E5000 Ground Heater, HP252, Pureheat Hydronic Heater, and CH5000 Cross Heater series.
- Leak-Free Circuit Integrity — A correctly seated elbow fitting maintains pressure and prevents fluid loss in the hydronic loop; a cracked or improperly fitted elbow can cause coolant leaks, pressure drop, and loss of heat output.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson and backed by their OEM quality standards, giving you confidence that part number 5000171331 is the correct component for the application.
An elbow fitting redirects the flow of heated fluid or coolant through a change in direction within the hydronic plumbing circuit. In ground and space heating equipment like the E5000 and Pureheat series, these fittings allow hose and pipe runs to navigate around burner housings, heat exchangers, and structural members without requiring straight-line routing. When an elbow fitting cracks, strips, or develops a leak, the pressurized fluid circuit loses integrity — resulting in coolant loss, reduced heat transfer efficiency, and potential system shutdown. Replacing a damaged fitting promptly with the correct OEM part restores a sealed, pressure-rated connection and returns the heater to full operation.
