The Wacker Neuson Speed Sensor is a genuine OEM component designed for DPU6555Heh, DPU6555Hech, DPU5545Heh, DPU5260Hehb+, DPU6275Hehb+, and related Wacker Neuson vibration plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact design and output specifications of the original sensor installed at the factory. Confirm your model number against the fitment list before ordering to ensure a direct, correct installation. Keeping the speed sensor in good working condition is essential to maintaining accurate engine management and consistent compaction performance in the field.
Key Features
- Correct Signal Output: — Genuine OEM construction ensures the sensor delivers the precise rotational signal your engine control system expects — no calibration drift or compatibility guesswork.
- Direct-Fit Installation: — Engineered to the original connector and mounting configuration, this sensor seats and connects exactly as the factory unit did, with no adaptation needed.
- Broad Vibration Plate Coverage: — Fits DPU6555Heh, DPU6555Hech, DPU5545Heh, DPU5260Hehb+, DPU6275Hehb+, and additional Wacker Neuson vibration plate models — verify your model number before ordering.
- Protects Engine Management: — A functioning speed sensor keeps the engine running within its designed RPM range; a failed sensor can cause erratic throttle response, shutdown faults, or loss of compaction control.
- Electrical Integrity: — As a genuine Wacker Neuson OEM part, 5100062448 is built to resist the vibration, heat, and dust exposure common in compaction equipment environments.
A speed sensor monitors the rotational speed of the engine or drive shaft and sends that signal to the machine's control unit, allowing it to regulate engine output and maintain the correct operating RPM. On vibration plate compactors, this data is critical — without an accurate speed reading, the machine cannot properly control compaction force or protect the engine from over-revving. When the speed sensor fails, operators typically see fault codes, unstable engine behavior, or the machine shutting down unexpectedly during operation.
