The Wacker Neuson 5100017558 is a genuine OEM Sensor designed for the RTLx-SC3 and RTKx-SC3 remote-controlled trench rollers equipped with the Compatec compaction measurement system. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this sensor meets the exact specifications required by the original machine design. Confirmed fitment spans multiple RTLx-SC3 and RTKx-SC3 configurations, as well as the HTC15 Trench Roller. When you order by part number 5100017558, you can be confident you are receiving the correct component for your machine.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Signal Accuracy — Manufactured to the original Wacker Neuson specification, ensuring the sensor outputs the precise signal your Compatec compaction monitoring system expects.
- Direct Plug-In Replacement — Matches the original connector and mounting configuration on RTLx-SC3 and RTKx-SC3 trench rollers, allowing straightforward installation without adapter modifications.
- Broad RTx-SC3 Series Coverage — Compatible with multiple RTLx-SC3 and RTKx-SC3 machine variants, as well as the HTC15 Trench Roller, making it the correct choice across this trench roller family.
- Compatec System Integrity — A correctly functioning sensor keeps the Compatec compaction measurement system reading accurately; a failed or drifting sensor can produce unreliable compaction data and disrupt pass-count monitoring on the job.
- Electrical Safety Compliance — As a sensing component within the machine's electronic control architecture, using the correct OEM part ensures proper voltage and signal thresholds are maintained, protecting downstream control modules.
The sensor on the RTLx-SC3 and RTKx-SC3 trench rollers feeds real-time data to the Compatec compaction measurement system, which monitors soil compaction levels as the machine works through trenches and cohesive soils. By detecting and transmitting the relevant physical input — whether vibration, position, or compaction force — the sensor allows operators and site supervisors to track compaction passes and confirm that target density has been achieved. When this sensor fails or delivers inaccurate readings, the Compatec system can no longer be relied upon for compaction verification, which may require additional testing passes or manual inspection to meet specification.
