The Wacker Neuson Air Cleaner Gasket is a genuine OEM air cleaner gasket designed for the DPU4045Ye, DPU40Yeh, DPU45Yeh, and DPU4045Yehzf series vibratory plates. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this OEM part is built to the exact same specification as the component installed at the factory, ensuring a correct seal between the air cleaner assembly and the engine. Compatibility spans multiple configuration variants across the DPU40 and DPU45 series, including LRC and EU models, making the right choice for a wide range of Wacker Neuson plate compactors.
Key Features
- Correct Sealing Geometry — Manufactured to OEM tolerances, this gasket delivers the proper compression seal around the air cleaner interface, preventing unfiltered air from entering the engine.
- Direct OEM Replacement — Installs in place of the original air cleaner gasket without any trimming or modification, matching the bolt pattern and mating surface profile exactly.
- Broad DPU Series Compatibility — Fits DPU4045Ye, DPU4045Yeh, DPU40Yeh, DPU45Yeh, DPU4045Yehzf, and their LRC, EU, and US variants, covering a wide spread of Wacker Neuson plate compactor configurations.
- Protects Engine Air Intake — A correctly seated air cleaner gasket keeps the air filtration path fully sealed; a degraded or missing gasket allows dust and debris to bypass the filter and accelerate engine wear.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson OEM Part — Supplied as an authorized Wacker Neuson component, giving you confidence that part number 5000217852 is the correct, current specification for your machine.
The air cleaner gasket forms an airtight seal between the air cleaner housing and the engine's intake port, ensuring that all combustion air passes through the filter element before reaching the engine. Without a sound gasket, unfiltered air — carrying fine silica dust and debris common on compaction worksites — can enter the engine directly, causing premature cylinder and piston wear. A worn or damaged gasket may also allow the air cleaner to loosen under vibration, which is especially relevant on plate compactors that operate under continuous high-frequency vibration cycles.
