Rietschle 518943 carbon vanes are wearing components in dry-running rotary vane pumps. Regular inspection and timely replacement help maintain pump performance and reduce the risk of damage associated with excessively worn or fractured vanes. When inspecting the pump, check: ✓ Rotor slots and free vane movement
✓ Rotor and shaft condition
✓ Internal running surfaces for scoring
✓ Bearings and excessive movement
✓ Inlet filters and contamination
✓ Signs of overheating or uneven wear
Before fitting replacement vanes, confirm the pump model and required quantity. The TR 40V uses six vanes, for example, while the TR 40DV requires seven. Follow the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions and inspect all relevant components before reassembly. If a pump has suffered broken vanes or premature wear, investigate the cause before installing a replacement set. Contamination, damaged rotor slots or internal scoring can affect the service life of new vanes.
