The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Watering System Timer Switch designed for the RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory rollers. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this switch is the exact component used in original production, ensuring a direct fit into the drum watering system circuit. It is confirmed compatible across multiple machine configurations within the RD27 series. When you need to restore correct spray timing and protect your asphalt finish quality, this is the correct part to order.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — Manufactured to the exact switching resistance and timing parameters required by the RD27 watering system circuit, not a generic substitute.
- Drop-In Connector Compatibility — Replaces the original switch using the existing wiring harness connector, keeping installation straightforward on the RD27-100 and RD27-120.
- RD27 Series Coverage — Fits RD27-100 and RD27-120 hydrostatic vibratory rollers across all listed machine configurations.
- Consistent Spray Cycle Timing — A correctly functioning timer switch maintains the programmed water spray intervals that prevent asphalt from sticking to the drums during compaction passes.
- Fuel and Electrical System Safety — As a control switch within the roller's watering circuit, correct operation prevents unintended continuous water flow that can saturate asphalt surfaces and compromise compaction results.
The watering system timer switch controls the timed activation of the drum spray system on the RD27 hydrostatic vibratory roller. During asphalt compaction, the drum watering system applies a thin, intermittent mist of water to the drum surface to prevent hot asphalt from adhering and building up. The timer switch governs how frequently and for how long the spray nozzles activate — when it fails, the spray may run continuously, run not at all, or cycle erratically, any of which can lead to asphalt pickup on the drum, uneven surface finish, or wasted water.
