The Wacker Neuson is a genuine OEM Protective Hood designed for the DPU6055 and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part is manufactured to the same specification as the original component fitted at the factory, ensuring a direct, hassle-free installation on your machine. It covers a broad range of DPU6055 and DPU6555 variants — including He, Heh, Hec, Heap, Hesh, Hecsh, Hecs, and US-market configurations — making it the correct choice across the full DPU 6000-series lineup.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Molded and finished to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional spec, so the hood seats, clips, and seals exactly as the factory-installed part does.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Mounts to the same attachment points as the original, covering DPU6055 and DPU6555 variants including He, Heh, Hec, Heap, Hesh, Hecsh, Hecs, and US-spec models.
- Wide Series Coverage: — A single part number spans the full DPU 6055 and DPU 6555 family, so you can stock one hood to cover multiple machines on the same fleet.
- Protects Critical Components: — Shields engine and compaction system components from debris, aggregate, and jobsite impact, helping maintain correct operating temperatures and preventing premature wear on covered parts.
- Operator Safety: — A properly fitted protective hood keeps moving and hot components enclosed during operation, reducing exposure risk for operators working in close proximity to the machine.
The protective hood on a reversible vibratory plate compactor serves as a structural guard that encloses the engine and upper drive components from flying debris, soil, and aggregate during compaction work. On heavy-duty DPU-class machines like the DPU6055 and DPU6555, which are built for demanding soil and aggregate compaction in trenching and foundation applications, the hood also plays a role in directing airflow for cooling and keeping the operator environment clean. A cracked, missing, or poorly fitted hood exposes internal components to accelerated contamination and damage, and may create a compliance issue on regulated worksites where machine guarding standards apply.
