The Wacker Neuson Water Tank is a genuine OEM Water Tank designed for the WPU1550A and WPU1550AW series reversible plate compactors. As a direct OEM part sourced through Wacker Neuson's authorized supply chain, it is manufactured to the same standards as the original component fitted at the factory. This tank is confirmed to fit the WPU1550A-US, WPU1550AW-US, WPU1550A, and WPU1550AW models, giving you confidence that you are ordering the correct part for your machine. Keeping the water system fully operational is essential to the performance of these machines, and replacing a damaged or leaking tank with a genuine OEM component ensures the system functions as intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Construction — Manufactured to the same material and dimensional spec as the original tank, ensuring proper sealing and correct water flow to the compaction plate.
- Direct-Fit Replacement — Mounts using the original attachment points on the WPU1550A and WPU1550AW frame, so installation follows the standard service procedure without adaptation.
- Broad WPU1550 Series Coverage — Fits WPU1550A, WPU1550A-US, WPU1550AW, and WPU1550AW-US models, covering both domestic and export variants in this plate compactor family.
- Maintains Effective Water Distribution — A fully intact tank delivers consistent water supply to the plate surface, preventing asphalt or material from sticking during compaction passes.
- Stops Leaks at the Source — A cracked or damaged tank wastes water, reduces plate wetting performance, and can leave fluid on the work surface — replacing it restores clean, controlled water delivery.
The water tank on a WPU1550-series plate compactor stores and supplies water that is fed continuously to the compaction plate during operation. This water layer prevents hot asphalt from bonding to the base plate, allowing the machine to glide smoothly and produce a clean, even finish. When the tank is cracked, leaking, or damaged, water supply becomes inconsistent or stops entirely, causing material to stick to the plate and compromising compaction quality — making a prompt like-for-like replacement essential to keeping the machine productive.
