VacAir Superstore stocks Rietschle CLFT 81 replacement carbon vanes for dry-running rotary vane pumps used in industrial production and engineering applications. We supply maintenance teams, vacuum pump service companies and plant engineers with the carbon vanes needed for both planned servicing and unexpected repairs.
The CLFT 81 requires eight carbon vanes for a complete replacement. Each vane measures 180 × 40 × 5 mm. The principal Rietschle part references are 524011 and 507109; the shared vane is also referenced as 520201. VacAir supplies this replacement as VA524011.
For the CLFT 81, the carbon vane starts at 40 mm in height and has a 30 mm minimum working height. Regular measurement is useful because wear develops gradually as the vanes slide within the rotor and make contact with the pump’s internal running surface. Cracked, chipped or unevenly worn vanes may need changing before they reach the height limit.
This 180 × 40 × 5 mm vane is also used in the DFT 80 and VFT 80, but the number fitted is not the same. Your CLFT 81 specification is eight vanes, while the DFT 80 and VFT 80 use four each. Customers should order by pump model as well as vane reference to obtain the correct complete set.
VacAir also supplies Rietschle pump spare parts and filters. For customers who need professional fitting, mechanical inspection or repairs, our vacuum pump servicing team can assist.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION

The eight vanes fitted to a Rietschle CLFT 81 should be examined individually during servicing. Check whether the vanes move freely in their slots, whether their edges are intact and whether wear is consistent across the set. Differences in height or visible damage may indicate an internal problem that needs attention. Each new CLFT 81 vane measures 180 × 40 × 5 mm. The 40 mm dimension is the new vane height; the 30 mm minimum working height is the wear threshold for this model. Measurements should be combined with a visual inspection of the rotor, cylinder and filtration system rather than treated as the only maintenance check. CLFT 81 inspection checklist before fitting new vanes: ✓ Measure the height of all eight carbon vanes ✓ Inspect vane edges for chips or fractures ✓ Check that the vanes slide freely in the rotor slots ✓ Examine the cylinder wall for scoring or damage ✓ Inspect the rotor and shaft condition ✓ Check bearings for excessive wear or movement ✓ Inspect inlet filtration and accumulated carbon dust ✓ Check for contamination or evidence of overheating ✓ Investigate any abnormal or uneven vane wear CLFT 81 minimum vane height: New vanes are 40 mm high, with a minimum permitted height of 30 mm. Replace worn vanes as a complete set of eight, following the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. Investigate damage or abnormal wear before installing replacements.

VacAir supplies CLFT 81 carbon vanes from stock, together with a range of Rietschle pump spares and maintenance components. Our customers include manufacturers keeping essential vacuum equipment operational, independent repair businesses and engineers servicing pumps on behalf of industrial sites. Changing vanes provides an opportunity to inspect the pump more thoroughly. Check the inlet filter, rotor slots, cylinder running surface and bearings, and remove carbon dust or other deposits using the manufacturer’s recommended procedure. Excessive contamination or damaged components can shorten the life of newly installed vanes. The CLFT 81 replacement vane is 180 × 40 × 5 mm, supplied by VacAir under VA524011. Rietschle references 524011, 507109 and 520201 are associated with this vane. For this pump, a full service replacement requires eight vanes, and VacAir can also supply associated filters and service parts. ✓ Rietschle 524011 replacement carbon vanes ✓ Inlet filters and maintenance components ✓ Vacuum pump spare parts and repair support ✓ Technical assistance identifying correct parts |
VacAir supplies the eight replacement carbon vanes required by the CLFT 81 for customers carrying out their own maintenance. Where a pump requires more extensive attention, our engineering team can assist with fitting, servicing and repair work.
Before reassembly, check the removed vanes against the 30 mm minimum working height and inspect the internal surfaces and rotor slots. New vanes are 40 mm high. Even when the vanes have not reached the wear limit, broken edges, uneven wear or poor movement in the rotor may justify further investigation.
If the CLFT 81 has stopped unexpectedly or suffered fractured vanes, it is important to examine the cause before fitting a fresh set. Internal scoring, bearing wear, contamination or overheating can damage new carbon vanes and lead to another failure if left unresolved.
Our OEM-trained vacuum pump engineers support industrial customers with maintenance inspections, vane fitting, mechanical fault diagnosis and pump repairs. VacAir can supply replacement parts alone or discuss servicing options for customers who need practical engineering assistance.
