Looking for Elmo Rietschle TR 40V replacement carbon vanes? VacAir Superstore supplies correctly specified carbon vanes for this dry-running rotary vane vacuum pump, helping industrial customers maintain their equipment without paying unnecessary premiums for replacement components. Our UK-based team provides competitive pricing, experienced technical assistance and delivery options for customers throughout the UK and overseas.
The Rietschle TR 40V is fitted with six carbon vanes, each measuring 85 × 47 × 4 mm. The original manufacturer reference is 518943, also identified by the extended number 5189430000. VacAir supplies these replacement vanes under our part number VA518943.
Carbon vanes are essential working components within the pump. As the rotor turns, the vanes slide within their slots and form the moving chambers required for the pumping process. Gradual reduction in vane height is expected during service, making regular inspection an important part of preventative maintenance. New TR 40V vanes have a height of 47 mm, and the specified minimum permitted height is 35 mm.
Whether your TR 40V is approaching its next scheduled maintenance interval or requires replacement vanes following an unexpected shutdown, VacAir can help you source the correct components. We also supply Rietschle filters and other spare parts, together with professional servicing and repair assistance where additional work is required.

Checking the condition of the carbon vanes is an important part of maintaining an Elmo Rietschle TR 40V. The vanes are designed to wear gradually as the pump operates, and allowing them to become excessively short can increase the risk of breakage or damage to internal components. The original height of a new 518943 carbon vane is 47 mm. For the TR 40V, the specified minimum permissible height is 35 mm. Each of the six vanes should be measured individually during servicing. Any noticeable difference in wear, damage to the vane edges or restriction within the rotor slots should be investigated. Before fitting replacement vanes, examine the internal condition of the pump and ensure the cause of any unusual wear has been identified. Replacing worn vanes without checking the surrounding components can leave underlying mechanical problems unresolved. Recommended TR 40V inspection checks: ✓ Measure the height of each of the six carbon vanes ✓ Inspect vane faces for cracking, chipping or damage ✓ Check that vanes move freely within the rotor slots ✓ Examine the cylinder surface for scoring or wear ✓ Inspect rotor, shaft and bearing condition ✓ Check the condition of inlet filters and air passages ✓ Remove accumulated carbon dust as instructed by the manufacturer ✓ Investigate evidence of overheating or uneven wear TR 40V wear limit: New carbon vanes measure 47 mm high. The minimum permitted height is 35 mm. Replace worn components as a complete set of six vanes in accordance with the manufacturer’s maintenance instructions.

Replacing the carbon vanes in a Rietschle TR 40V provides an opportunity to inspect the pump’s internal condition and address wear before it leads to a more expensive repair. VacAir supplies the correct 518943 carbon vanes for this model, with six vanes required for a complete change.
During a vane replacement, engineers should measure the existing components, inspect the cylinder running surface and confirm that the rotor slots are clean and free from damage. The 35 mm minimum permitted vane height provides a clear reference when assessing the condition of the existing vanes.
If a pump has been operating with excessively worn or broken vanes, further checks may be necessary. Internal scoring, contamination or restricted vane movement can affect the performance and service life of newly installed components, so these issues should be addressed before the pump is returned to operation.
VacAir’s OEM factory-trained engineers offer professional vacuum pump servicing, carbon vane fitting, maintenance inspections, fault diagnosis and repairs. Customers can purchase replacement components for their own maintenance teams or contact VacAir for engineering assistance.
