TL 6 CARBON VANE INSPECTION & REPLACEMENT
|
The six carbon vanes fitted to the TL 6 gradually wear during operation. Routine inspection helps identify vanes approaching their permitted wear limit and provides an opportunity to examine the condition of the pump. New replacement vanes measure 40 × 31 × 4 mm, with an original height of 31 mm. The specified minimum permitted vane height is 15 mm. During maintenance, check: ✓ Remaining height of each carbon vane ✓ Vane edges and faces for cracks or chipping ✓ Free movement within the rotor slots ✓ Internal cylinder surfaces for scoring ✓ Rotor, shaft and bearing condition ✓ Inlet filter and carbon dust accumulation ✓ Evidence of overheating or uneven wear
TL 6 wear limit: New carbon vanes are 31 mm high. The minimum permitted height is 15 mm. Replace worn vanes as a complete set of six, following the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions. Investigate any abnormal vane damage before returning the pump to service.
