The Wacker Neuson Pressure Relief Valve Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. This includes fitment across the DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060RC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet models — covering both standard and remote-controlled configurations in this 70 kN heavy-duty plate family. As a genuine Wacker Neuson part, the is manufactured to the exact tolerances and pressure ratings required by these machines, ensuring the hydraulic system performs as intended. Verify your model number before ordering to confirm correct application.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Pressure Rating: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact hydraulic pressure specification, so the valve opens and closes at precisely the threshold the DPU 7060 hydraulic circuit requires.
- Drop-In Hydraulic Fitment: — Engineered to match the original port threads and body dimensions, allowing straightforward installation into the existing hydraulic circuit without modification.
- Broad DPU 7060 Series Coverage: — Confirmed fitment across DPU 7060, DPU 7060SC, DPU 7060RC, DPU 7060Fe, and DPU 7060Fet platforms, spanning standard and remote-control variants of this 70 kN reversible plate.
- Hydraulic System Protection: — A correctly functioning pressure relief valve prevents over-pressurization of the hydraulic circuit; a failed or stuck valve can cause erratic plate direction control, overheating, or hydraulic component damage.
- Safety-Critical Hydraulic Component: — On reversible plate compactors, the hydraulic drive system controls forward and reverse travel; an out-of-spec relief valve compromises directional control and operator safety on grade or in trench applications.
The pressure relief valve in a reversible vibratory plate compactor regulates hydraulic pressure within the drive circuit, acting as a safety threshold that prevents excessive pressure buildup from damaging pumps, motors, and hoses. On DPU-series machines like the DPU 7060, the hydraulic system powers both the reversible travel drive and the exciter mechanism, making stable pressure control essential to consistent compaction output and smooth direction changes. When the relief valve wears, sticks open, or fails to seal properly, the machine may lose drive force, run hot, or behave unpredictably — all signs that the valve needs immediate replacement.
