The Wacker Neuson Filter Cover is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same fit and finish as the original, ensuring it seats correctly over the filter assembly without adjustment. It is confirmed compatible with both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants within the 70 kN reversible plate family.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Molded and finished to the same dimensional tolerances as the original cover, ensuring correct sealing contact against the filter housing.
- Direct-Fit Replacement: — Mounts directly to the filter assembly on DPU 7060 series machines using the existing hardware and attachment points.
- Confirmed DPU 7060 Family Fitment: — Verified for the DPU 7060 reversible vibratory plate and the DPU 7060RC remote-controlled variant, both in the 70 kN, 60 cm / 24 in class.
- Filter Protection: — Shields the air filter element from debris, dust, and moisture generated during soil and aggregate compaction, preserving engine intake quality.
- Part Number Traceability: — Ordering by Wacker Neuson part number 5000066518 ensures you receive the correct cover version for this specific DPU platform.
The filter cover protects the air filter element from the harsh, dust-laden environment produced during compaction work. Without an intact cover, abrasive particles can bypass or prematurely load the filter, degrading air supply to the engine and accelerating internal wear. A damaged or missing cover on a DPU 7060 series machine can lead to increased filter change frequency, reduced engine performance, and in severe cases, premature engine wear — making timely replacement of part number 5000066518 a straightforward step in keeping the compactor running at full capacity.
