The Wacker Neuson Filter Top is a genuine OEM component designed for WPU1550A and WPU1550AW series reversible plate compactors. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part is manufactured to the same specification as the original, ensuring it seats and seals exactly as intended. It fits both the US-spec and standard variants across the WPU1550A and WPU1550AW model lines, covering part configurations,, and.
Key Features
- OEM Sealing Integrity — Manufactured to original spec, this filter top delivers the correct compression fit and seal required to keep the air filtration system fully closed against dust and debris ingestion.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Designed to locate and secure onto the filter housing exactly as the original, with no trimming, shimming, or adapting needed during installation.
- Broad WPU1550 Series Coverage — Fits WPU1550A and WPU1550AW models in both standard and US-spec configurations, making this a single correct part number across the full model family.
- Protects Engine Air Supply — A properly fitted filter top maintains a clean, uncontaminated air path to the engine. A cracked, missing, or ill-fitting top allows fine compaction dust to bypass filtration entirely, accelerating internal engine wear.
- Genuine Wacker Neuson Part — Supplied as an authentic OEM component, meaning the material grade, dimensions, and locking geometry match what came off the production line — not an approximation.
The filter top sits at the uppermost point of the air filter assembly, capping the filter element and closing the housing against the operating environment. Its role is to form a dust-tight seal over the filter so that only air passing through the filter media reaches the engine — on a plate compactor working in fine aggregate or dry soil, this barrier is under constant challenge. When the filter top is cracked, warped, or missing, unfiltered air carrying abrasive particles bypasses the element and enters the engine directly, leading to premature cylinder and piston wear. Keeping this component in sound condition is a straightforward but important part of routine filter service.
