The Wacker Neuson Oil Lifter is a genuine OEM component designed for the PS2-3703, PS3-3703, PS4-3703, PS3-5503, and PS4-5503 series submersible pumps. As a direct factory replacement, this part meets the exact specifications set by Wacker Neuson for these submersible pump families, ensuring correct fitment and consistent function. Verified against multiple machine configurations across both 50Hz and 60Hz voltage variants, part number covers a broad range of PS-series submersible pump builds.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Lubrication Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact tolerances, this oil lifter maintains proper oil circulation within the motor housing, protecting internal components from premature wear.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to install in the same position and orientation as the original, this part slots directly into compatible PS-series pump assemblies without modification.
- Broad PS-Series Coverage — Confirmed fitment across the PS2-3703, PS3-3703, PS4-3703, PS3-5503, and PS4-5503 submersible pump families, including 220V, 440V, and 400V configurations.
- Motor Protection Under Load — A properly functioning oil lifter keeps the motor's rotating components adequately lubricated during continuous pumping operations; a failed or worn lifter risks motor seizure and unplanned downtime.
- Multi-Voltage Application Verified — Fitment is confirmed across 50Hz and 60Hz pump variants, making this a reliable stocking part for operations running mixed voltage equipment.
The oil lifter is an internal motor component responsible for circulating oil around the rotating parts within the sealed motor housing of a submersible pump. It ensures that bearings and other moving components remain lubricated during operation, even when the pump is fully submerged and running under sustained load. When the oil lifter fails or becomes damaged, oil circulation is disrupted, leading to increased friction, heat buildup, and ultimately motor failure — making timely replacement critical to keeping PS-series submersible pumps running at full capacity.
