The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Protective Frame designed for the DPU 4045H, DPU 5045H, and DPU 5545H series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct OEM replacement sourced through authorized Wacker Neuson channels, this frame is manufactured to the same specifications as the part originally fitted to your machine. It covers an extensive range of DPU variants including H, He, Heh, Hec, Heap, and US-market configurations across both the 4045 and 5545 model families, making it a highly versatile replacement component for operators running multiple machines. Confirm your model number before ordering to ensure proper fitment within this broad DPU series.
Key Features
- OEM-Grade Structural Integrity — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional standards, ensuring the frame provides the same level of impact protection as the factory-installed unit.
- Bolt-On Replacement — Designed to mount directly to existing attachment points on compatible DPU models with no cutting, drilling, or fabrication required.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage — Fits DPU 4045H, DPU 5045H, and DPU 5545H families, including H, He, Heh, Hec, Heap, and US-market variants, across a wide range of machine numbers.
- Engine and Exciter Protection — Shields critical drivetrain and engine components during transport and operation in tight or confined compaction environments such as trenches and utility corridors.
- Corrosion-Resistant Construction — Built to withstand the harsh jobsite exposure typical of diesel-powered compaction equipment operating in soil, aggregate, and mixed-material conditions.
The protective frame on a reversible vibratory plate compactor acts as a structural guard around the machine's engine, exciter housing, and upper assembly. It absorbs and deflects impact loads from accidental contact with trench walls, formwork, or other site obstacles — conditions common when operating heavy DPU-class compactors in confined spaces. When the frame is cracked, bent, or missing entirely, the underlying engine and vibration components are left exposed to damage that can result in costly mechanical repairs or unsafe operating conditions.
