The Wacker Neuson Oil Pressure Switch is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 7060 and DPU 7060RC reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring a correct, trouble-free installation. This switch is compatible with both the standard DPU 7060 and the remote-controlled DPU 7060RC variants in the 70 kN reversible plate family.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Sensing Accuracy — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original pressure-threshold specification, so the switch opens and closes at the correct oil pressure values for the DPU engine.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original thread pitch, port size, and connector type of the DPU 7060 series, fitting straight into the existing oil gallery port without adaptation.
- Confirmed DPU 7060 Series Fitment — Verified for the DPU 7060 (70 kN, 60 cm/24 in) and DPU 7060RC (70 kN, Remote Control) reversible vibratory plate compactors.
- Protects the Engine from Low-Pressure Damage — A correctly functioning oil pressure switch triggers the warning or shutdown circuit the moment oil pressure drops below safe operating levels, preventing costly internal engine damage during compaction work.
- Critical Safety Circuit Component — Because this switch is part of the engine protection system, using a correctly rated OEM replacement ensures the shutdown or warning function responds at the engineered pressure threshold — not too early, not too late.
The oil pressure switch monitors engine lubrication pressure and sends a signal to the machine's warning or shutdown system if pressure falls outside the safe operating range. On heavy-duty reversible plate compactors like the DPU 7060 series, maintaining correct oil pressure is essential to protecting the diesel engine under sustained, high-load compaction cycles. When the switch fails or degrades, the engine loses its primary low-pressure safeguard — leaving it vulnerable to serious internal damage before the operator notices a problem.
