The Wacker Neuson 5100024279 Heat Shield Complete is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU80, DPU90, and DPU110 series reversible vibratory plate compactors. This is a direct OEM replacement sourced from Wacker Neuson, ensuring the part meets the original design intent for your machine. The 5100024279 covers an extensive range of DPU variants including Lec, Lem, rLec, and rLem configurations across the 670, 770, 870, and 970 model designations. If your DPU plate compactor is due for a heat shield replacement, this is the correct part to restore proper thermal protection to your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Thermal Protection: — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's original material and dimensional specifications, ensuring the shield correctly channels and contains engine heat in heavy-duty compaction conditions.
- Drop-In Replacement: — Engineered to align with existing mounting points on DPU80, DPU90, and DPU110 plate compactors, allowing straightforward installation without modification.
- Broad DPU Series Fitment: — Compatible with a wide range of DPU80, DPU90, and DPU110 variants including standard, reversible (r), Lec, Lem, and US-market configurations across multiple production series.
- Sustained Engine Bay Integrity: — A correctly fitted heat shield keeps engine heat directed away from fuel lines, hoses, and adjacent components, preserving the condition of surrounding parts over extended service life.
- Safety-Critical Component: — Heat shields prevent the concentration of exhaust and engine heat near combustible materials. Replacing a damaged or missing shield promptly is essential for safe machine operation on any worksite.
A heat shield is a formed metal or composite barrier positioned around the engine exhaust and high-temperature zones of a plate compactor. Its job is to deflect and contain radiant and convective heat, preventing it from reaching nearby fuel system components, hydraulic lines, rubber hoses, and operator contact surfaces. On a diesel-powered reversible plate compactor like the DPU series — which often runs for extended hours under load on compaction sites — the heat shield plays a direct role in preventing premature degradation of surrounding components. A cracked, warped, or missing heat shield can allow heat to migrate to areas where it causes accelerated wear or creates a fire risk, making timely replacement with the correct part an important part of routine machine maintenance.
