The Wacker Neuson Prefilter is a genuine OEM component designed for the DPU 100-70Les Reversible Vibratory Plate. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this prefilter matches the exact specification of the original part installed at the factory. It is a direct replacement for the DPU 100-70Les, ensuring the air intake system continues to function as intended. Keeping this filter element in good condition is a simple but essential part of routine maintenance on your plate compactor.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Filtration Media — Manufactured to Wacker Neuson's own material and porosity standards, so the prefilter catches airborne particles before they reach the main air filter element.
- Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to seat and seal exactly like the original, so installation on the DPU 100-70Les is straightforward with no trimming or adaptation.
- Confirmed Fitment for DPU 100-70Les — Verified against Wacker Neuson model DPU 100-70Les Reversible Vibratory Plate (model number 5000610344).
- Protects Engine Air Supply — A serviceable prefilter traps coarse dust and debris on the first pass, extending the service life of the primary air filter and protecting the engine from abrasive ingestion.
- Supports Scheduled Maintenance Intervals — Replacing the prefilter on time keeps airflow resistance low, helping the engine run at the correct fuel-to-air ratio and maintain full compaction output.
The prefilter sits upstream of the main air filter element in the engine's air intake system, acting as a first line of defense against dust, dirt, and debris that a plate compactor kicks up during operation. By capturing larger particles before they can load up the primary filter, it helps maintain consistent airflow to the engine and extends the service life of the more expensive filter element behind it. When a prefilter becomes clogged or damaged, the engine can experience restricted airflow, leading to reduced power output, increased fuel consumption, and accelerated wear on internal engine components.
