The Wacker Neuson Exciter is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70 reversible vibratory plate compactor. As a direct Wacker Neuson OEM part, the is manufactured to the same specification as the original unit installed at the factory, ensuring a correct, like-for-like replacement. This exciter is specifically verified for the DPU 100-70 — a heavy-duty diesel-powered reversible plate rated at 100 kN with a 70 cm working width — making it a critical service component for maintaining full compaction output on demanding soil and aggregate applications.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Exciter Assembly — Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this exciter is built to the original vibration output and eccentric weight specification required for the DPU 100-70.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to mount using the original bolt pattern and interface points on the DPU 100-70 baseplate, so the installation follows the standard service procedure without adaptation.
- Verified Fitment for DPU 100-70 — Confirmed for the DPU 100-70 reversible vibratory plate compactor (100 kN / 70 cm), a diesel-powered unit built for heavy soil and aggregate base compaction.
- Restores Full Compaction Force — A worn or failed exciter reduces centrifugal force output and compaction depth. Replacing with the correct OEM unit restores the machine's rated 100 kN compaction performance.
- Long-Term Durability Under High-Cycle Load — OEM exciters are rated for the continuous eccentric rotation demands of reversible plate operation, where bearing loads and vibrational stress are significantly higher than on single-direction models.
The exciter is the core vibration-generating assembly inside a vibratory plate compactor. It uses rotating eccentric weights driven by the engine to produce the high-frequency centrifugal force that compacts soil, aggregate, and base material beneath the plate. On a reversible plate like the DPU 100-70, the exciter also controls the direction of travel by shifting the phase angle of the eccentric weights. When the exciter wears or fails, the machine loses compaction force, directional control, or both — making timely replacement essential to keeping the compactor working at rated capacity.
