The Wacker Neuson Float Switch is a genuine OEM float switch designed for the BS50-2plus, BS60-2plus, and BS70-2plus series rammers. Sourced directly from Wacker Neuson, this part meets the exact electrical and mechanical specifications of the original component installed at the factory. It is compatible across multiple BS-series configurations including 11-inch and 6-inch stroke variants, as well as US and HA editions within the BS50-2plus, BS60-2plus, and BS70-2plus lineups. When your rammer's oil level protection system needs restoring, part number is the correct, verified replacement.
Key Features
- Correct Switching Threshold: — Genuine OEM construction ensures the float switch actuates at the precise oil level required to trigger engine protection on BS-series rammers.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement: — Engineered to match the original connector type and mounting position, so installation follows the same procedure as the factory-fitted unit.
- Broad BS-Series Compatibility: — Fits BS50-2plus, BS60-2plus, and BS70-2plus rammers across US, HA, and CN configurations, covering both 11-inch and 6-inch stroke models.
- Engine Protection Integrity: — A properly functioning float switch halts the engine before low oil causes internal damage; a failed switch removes that safeguard entirely.
- Electrical Safety Compliance: — As a genuine Wacker Neuson part, 5100034608 preserves the integrity of the machine's low-oil shutdown circuit, maintaining safe operating behavior in the field.
- Verified OEM Part Number: — Part number 5100034608 is the authoritative Wacker Neuson reference for this switch, eliminating the guesswork of cross-referencing aftermarket alternatives.
A float switch is a small but critical sensor that monitors the oil level inside the rammer's engine crankcase. When the oil drops below a safe threshold, the float moves with the falling oil surface and triggers an electrical signal that shuts the engine down before serious internal damage can occur. If the float switch fails — whether through corrosion, mechanical wear, or a broken float — the engine loses its low-oil protection entirely, leaving the machine vulnerable to seizure during normal operation.
