ELMO RIETSCHLE TR 40D REPLACEMENT CARBON VANES
VacAir Superstore supplies replacement carbon vanes for the Elmo Rietschle TR 40D dry-running rotary vane pump. We offer competitively priced replacement vanes to industrial operators, maintenance departments and specialist engineering companies, with technical assistance and delivery options throughout the UK and overseas.
The TR 40D uses six carbon vanes, each measuring 85 × 47 × 4 mm. These correspond to Rietschle OEM reference 518943, also identified as 5189430000. VacAir’s replacement reference is VA518943. When purchasing a complete replacement set, six individual vanes are required.
Carbon vanes are wearing components within the pump’s rotary mechanism. During operation, they slide in the rotor slots and make contact with the internal cylinder surface. The original vane height is 47 mm, and the specified minimum permitted height for the TR 40D is 35 mm. Periodic measurement helps establish when the vanes need replacing and provides an opportunity to identify abnormal wear before more extensive damage occurs.
VacAir also supplies Elmo Rietschle spare parts and offers professional vacuum pump servicing and repairs for customers requiring assistance beyond replacement vane supply.

RIETSCHLE TR 40D VANE INSPECTION & REPLACEMENT
|
Routine inspection of the carbon vanes is an important maintenance requirement for the Rietschle TR 40D. The six vanes move freely within the rotor slots during operation and gradually reduce in height as they contact the internal cylinder surface. Monitoring their condition helps prevent excessive wear and identify potential problems before they develop into pump failures. A new 518943 carbon vane measures 85 × 47 × 4 mm, including an original height of 47 mm. The TR 40D has a minimum permitted vane height of 35 mm. All six vanes should be measured during servicing, and any significant differences in height or wear pattern should be investigated. TR 40D maintenance inspection checklist: ✓ Measure the remaining height of all six carbon vanes ✓ Examine the vane edges and faces for cracks or chips ✓ Confirm free movement within each rotor slot ✓ Inspect cylinder running surfaces for scoring or damage ✓ Assess rotor, shaft and bearing condition ✓ Check inlet filters and accumulated carbon dust ✓ Look for contamination or evidence of overheating ✓ Investigate unusual noise, uneven wear or broken vanes TR 40D minimum vane height: New vanes are 47 mm high. The minimum permitted height is 35 mm. Replace worn vanes as a complete set of six, following the manufacturer’s servicing instructions. Where abnormal wear or damage is present, investigate the cause before installing replacement components.

TR 40D VANE FITTING & PUMP SERVICING
VacAir supplies the six Rietschle 518943 carbon vanes required for a complete TR 40D replacement. Each vane measures 85 × 47 × 4 mm, and the correct quantity should be confirmed before starting maintenance, particularly when working with different Rietschle 40-series pump variants.
A vane replacement service should include checking the remaining height of the existing components against the 35 mm minimum permitted height. The condition of the cylinder running surface, rotor slots, shaft, bearings and inlet filtration should also be examined before new vanes are installed.
Where a TR 40D has experienced broken vanes, excessive carbon dust, unusual operating noise or reduced performance, simply fitting new vanes may not resolve the underlying problem. Contamination, scoring and mechanical wear can shorten the life of replacement components if they are not addressed.
VacAir’s OEM factory-trained engineers provide professional carbon vane fitting, scheduled servicing, fault diagnosis and vacuum pump repairs. We support customers undertaking their own maintenance by supplying replacement parts, while also offering experienced engineering assistance where required.
