Replacement carbon vanes for the Elmo Rietschle KTA 140 dry-running rotary vane pump, supplied by VacAir Superstore.
Replacement vanes, Rietschle spare parts and vacuum pump engineering support.
ELMO RIETSCHLE KTA 140 REPLACEMENT CARBON VANES
Maintaining an Elmo Rietschle KTA 140 involves periodic inspection of the carbon vanes fitted within its dry-running rotary vane pumping mechanism. These components form part of the pump’s working assembly and gradually wear during operation. Monitoring their condition helps maintenance engineers plan replacement before excessive wear affects the pump.
The KTA 140 requires six replacement carbon vanes measuring 260 × 52 × 5 mm. VacAir supplies the replacement under reference VA523885, corresponding to Rietschle OEM part number 523885. Alternative OEM references include 526627 and 525421.
New KTA 140 carbon vanes have a height of 52 mm, with a minimum permitted vane height of 38 mm. Measuring the existing vanes during maintenance provides a practical way to assess wear. Their 260 mm length also makes correct model identification essential when selecting replacements from the wider KTA range.
VacAir also supplies Elmo Rietschle pump spare parts and offers vacuum pump servicing and repair support for industrial customers.

REPLACING CARBON VANES IN THE KTA 140
|
The carbon vanes in the KTA 140 experience gradual wear as the rotor turns inside the pumping chamber. Regular inspection helps maintenance engineers identify excessive wear, damaged vanes and conditions that may affect pump reliability. The KTA 140 uses six carbon vanes measuring 260 × 52 × 5 mm. The original vane height is 52 mm, with a 38 mm minimum permitted height. Once the specified limit has been reached, the complete set of six should be replaced. During a KTA 140 vane inspection, check: ✓ The remaining height of each carbon vane
✓ Carbon vane faces and edges for damage
✓ Freedom of movement within the rotor slots
✓ Cylinder running surfaces for scoring
✓ Rotor and bearing condition
✓ Filters and internal contamination
✓ Evidence of abnormal wear or overheating
KTA 140 wear specification: New carbon vanes measure 52 mm high. The minimum permitted vane height is 38 mm. Replace worn vanes as a complete set of six and inspect the internal components if any vanes are fractured or show uneven wear.
