The Wacker Neuson 5200018702 is a genuine OEM Oil Alert Switch Complete designed for the BS50-4As, BS60-4As, and BS70-4As gasoline vibratory rammers. As a direct OEM part, the 5200018702 is manufactured to the exact electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component, ensuring it integrates correctly with your machine's low-oil protection circuit. This switch is confirmed compatible across a wide range of BS-series rammer configurations, including 280 mm and 11-inch shoe variants, high-altitude builds, and hour-meter-equipped models. If your rammer is shutting down unexpectedly, failing to start, or showing signs of oil detection issues, replacing the oil alert switch complete is a logical first step in restoring normal operation.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Spec: — Manufactured to the original output and switching threshold specifications, so the low-oil circuit activates and deactivates exactly as designed — no guesswork on trigger points.
- Complete Assembly: — Supplied as a complete switch unit ready for installation, with all integrated components included to simplify the repair process.
- Broad BS-Series Compatibility: — Fits BS50-4As, BS60-4As, and BS70-4As rammers across multiple configurations, including 280 mm shoe, 11-inch plastic shoe, high-altitude, and hour-meter variants.
- Engine Protection Restored: — A correctly functioning oil alert switch cuts engine power before oil pressure drops to a damaging level, protecting the engine from seizure during operation.
- Safety-Critical Component: — The oil alert system is a primary line of defense against catastrophic engine failure; using a genuine OEM switch ensures the protection threshold is accurate and dependable.
The oil alert switch complete monitors engine oil level or pressure and sends a signal to shut down the engine automatically if oil drops below a safe threshold. On a vibratory rammer like the BS-series, where the machine operates under constant high-frequency impact loads, engine protection of this kind is essential — a missed low-oil condition can result in rapid internal engine damage. When this switch fails, the rammer may shut off without warning, refuse to start, or — more dangerously — lose its low-oil protection entirely and run unprotected, putting the engine at serious risk.
