The Wacker Neuson Exhaust Kit is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. As a direct factory replacement, this kit carries the same part number and construction as the original, ensuring a straight-swap installation with no guesswork. It covers an extensive range of variants across all three model families, including He, Heh, Hech, Hecs, Heap, Heshap, and US-spec configurations. Keeping the exhaust system in proper working order is essential for engine performance, operator comfort, and compliance with jobsite emissions and noise requirements.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original specifications, with correctly matched outlet dimensions, gasket interfaces, and heat-rated materials for the DPU engine platform.
- Broad DPU Series Coverage: — Fits a wide range of DPU4545, DPU5545, and DPU6555 variants, including He, Heh, Hech, Hecs, Heap, Hesh, and US-spec models — one part number across the entire family.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: — Engineered to align with existing mounting points and exhaust ports on the compactor engine, so the kit installs the same way the original did.
- Engine Protection and Output: — A properly sealed exhaust system maintains correct back-pressure and prevents exhaust gas recirculation into the engine bay, preserving power output and engine longevity on these heavy-duty diesel reversible plates.
- Operator Safety Compliance: — Intact exhaust routing keeps hot gases and carbon monoxide directed away from the operator — a genuine safety consideration on walk-behind equipment used in confined or low-ventilation areas.
The exhaust kit on a reversible vibratory plate compactor routes combustion gases away from the engine and out of the machine in a controlled path. On DPU series machines, the exhaust system must withstand sustained high-cycle vibration loading while maintaining a gas-tight seal at every joint — conditions that accelerate wear on gaskets, flanges, and tubing over time. When exhaust components crack, corrode, or develop leaks, the engine can lose back-pressure, run rough, and expose the operator to exhaust fumes. Replacing the full kit restores the sealed, correctly routed exhaust path the engine was designed to operate with.
