The Elmo Rietschle KTR 140 is a dry-running rotary vane compressor used in industrial compressed-air applications. Its carbon vanes operate within the compression chamber and gradually wear during normal operation. Regular inspection and timely replacement help maintain reliable compressor performance.
VacAir supplies Rietschle 529267 replacement carbon vanes, also identified by alternative OEM reference 529268, for the KTR 140. The vanes measure 245 × 52 × 4 mm, and this compressor requires seven vanes for a complete replacement.
New vanes have a height of 52 mm. The specified minimum permitted vane height for the KTR 140 is 38 mm. Measuring vane height during routine servicing helps determine when replacement is required and provides an opportunity to assess the compressor’s internal condition.
The same vane specification is associated with several Rietschle DTR, KTR and VTR models. Although the vane dimensions and OEM references are shared, the number of vanes fitted can vary between models. Correctly identifying the compressor model is therefore important when arranging replacement parts.
VacAir also supplies Elmo Rietschle spare parts and offers vacuum pump and compressor servicing and repairs.

The KTR 140’s carbon vanes gradually wear during operation. Regular inspection helps identify when replacement is required and can reduce the risk of additional damage caused by excessively worn or fractured components. Replacement vanes measure 245 × 52 × 4 mm. New vanes have a height of 52 mm, and the specified minimum permitted vane height is 38 mm. A complete replacement requires seven carbon vanes. During inspection, check: ✓ Remaining vane height against the 38 mm limit ✓ Carbon vane surfaces for cracks or fractures ✓ Free movement within the rotor slots ✓ Cylinder running surfaces for scoring or damage ✓ Rotor, shaft and bearing condition ✓ Inlet filtration and accumulated carbon dust ✓ Evidence of overheating or uneven vane wear KTR 140 wear limit: New vanes are 52 mm high, with a 38 mm minimum permitted height. Replace worn vanes as a complete set of seven, following the manufacturer’s servicing instructions. Investigate abnormal wear or vane breakage before returning the compressor to service.

A scheduled KTR 140 service provides an opportunity to inspect more than the carbon vanes. Filtration, bearings and internal compressor components should also be checked for contamination, damage or excessive wear. VacAir has supplied industrial vacuum pump and compressor components since 1996, supporting maintenance departments, service engineers and equipment operators with replacement parts and technical assistance. When requesting KTR 140 spare parts, provide the complete compressor model, serial number and any existing manufacturer references to help identify the correct components. ✓ Rietschle 529267 / 529268 replacement carbon vanes ✓ Compressor filtration components ✓ Additional maintenance and repair spare parts ✓ Technical assistance with component identification |
VacAir supplies Rietschle 529267 / 529268 replacement carbon vanes for the KTR 140 compressor, measuring 245 × 52 × 4 mm. A complete replacement requires seven carbon vanes.
During servicing, the existing vane height should be measured against the 38 mm minimum permitted height. The rotor slots, cylinder running surfaces, bearings and filtration should also be examined for wear, damage or contamination.
If the compressor has suffered unexpected vane breakage, reduced air output, excessive noise or abnormal operating temperatures, the underlying cause should be investigated before fitting replacement components.
VacAir’s experienced OEM factory-trained engineers provide carbon vane fitting, preventative maintenance, fault diagnosis and professional vacuum pump and compressor repair services.
