ELMO RIETSCHLE KTN 16 REPLACEMENT CARBON VANES
The Elmo Rietschle KTN 16 is a dry-running rotary vane compressor designed for industrial applications. Its carbon vanes form part of the internal compression mechanism and require inspection as they gradually wear during operation.
VacAir supplies Rietschle 513702 replacement carbon vanes for the KTN 16, measuring 55 × 39 × 4 mm. The compressor requires six vanes for a complete replacement, with VacAir reference VA513702.
The original vane height is 39 mm, and the specified minimum permitted height is 24 mm. Checking vane dimensions during maintenance helps identify wear before it causes additional operating problems.
The KTN 16 shares its carbon vane part number with several other Rietschle compressors and vacuum pumps. Although the vane dimensions are common, the number fitted can vary between models. Confirming the exact pump designation remains important when arranging a complete replacement set.
VacAir also supplies Elmo Rietschle spare parts and offers vacuum pump and compressor servicing and repairs.

KTN 16 CARBON VANE INSPECTION & REPLACEMENT
|
Maintaining the KTN 16 involves checking the carbon vanes at the intervals specified by the manufacturer. Vane condition is important to compressor performance, and wear should be assessed before it becomes excessive. The KTN 16 uses six 513702 carbon vanes, each measuring 55 × 39 × 4 mm. The original vane height is 39 mm, with a minimum permitted height of 24 mm. During inspection, check: ✓ Remaining vane height against the 24 mm limit ✓ Carbon vane faces for fractures and chipping ✓ Rotor slots for contamination and free movement ✓ Internal cylinder surfaces for scoring ✓ Rotor, shaft and bearing condition ✓ Inlet filtration and accumulated carbon dust ✓ Signs of overheating or uneven wear
KTN 16 vane wear limit: Replace the complete set of six vanes when the specified 24 mm minimum height is reached. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for vane orientation, cleaning and reassembly. If a vane has fractured, investigate the cause before returning the compressor to service.

KTN 16 VANE FITTING & COMPRESSOR SERVICING
VacAir supplies the six replacement carbon vanes required for the Elmo Rietschle KTN 16, using the 513702 specification and dimensions of 55 × 39 × 4 mm.
A scheduled vane change is an opportunity to inspect the compressor’s internal condition. Existing vane height should be checked against the 24 mm minimum permitted limit, while the rotor slots, running surfaces and associated components should be examined for wear or damage.
Where a compressor has suffered unexpected vane breakage, reduced pressure output or unusual operating noise, identifying the underlying fault is important before fitting a new vane set.
VacAir’s experienced OEM factory-trained engineers provide vane fitting, preventative maintenance, fault investigation and vacuum pump and compressor repairs.
