The Wacker Neuson Oil Pressure Switch is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU6555Heh US, DPU6555Hech US, and DPU6555Hehapn vibration plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part carries the same specification as the original, ensuring a direct, like-for-like installation with no guesswork on fitment. Keeping the oil pressure monitoring system in proper working order is critical to protecting the engine on these high-output vibratory plates, and replacing a worn or faulty switch with a genuine OEM part is the surest way to restore correct protection.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Electrical Specification — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's exact switching threshold, so the unit opens and closes at the correct pressure point — no signal drift or false readings.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Matches the original thread size and connector type for a straightforward swap on the DPU6555 series without adapters or modifications.
- Confirmed Fitment — Verified for DPU6555Heh US, DPU6555Hech US, and DPU6555Hehapn vibration plate compactors by Wacker Neuson part number 5100062251.
- Engine Protection Restored — A correctly functioning oil pressure switch triggers an immediate shutdown when pressure drops dangerously low, preventing catastrophic engine damage during operation.
- Safety-Critical Compliance — As a primary engine protection component, using a genuine OEM part ensures the shutdown circuit performs within the tolerances the engine management system was designed around.
The oil pressure switch monitors the lubrication system and sends a signal to the engine's protection circuit if oil pressure falls below a safe threshold. When pressure drops too low, the switch triggers an automatic engine shutdown, preventing the kind of internal engine damage that can result from running unlubricated. A faulty or failed switch can either allow the engine to run unprotected during a pressure loss, or cause nuisance shutdowns when no real pressure problem exists — both outcomes that put productivity and engine longevity at risk.
