ELMO RIETSCHLE VLT 40 REPLACEMENT CARBON VANES
VacAir supplies replacement carbon vanes for the Elmo Rietschle VLT 40 dry-running rotary vane vacuum pump. The VLT 40 requires 7 carbon vanes for a complete replacement, each measuring 85 × 47 × 4 mm.
These replacement vanes correspond to Rietschle OEM reference 518943. The VacAir replacement reference is VA518943, providing a clear part-number match for customers arranging VLT 40 maintenance.
Carbon vanes are wearing components within the VLT 40 rotary vane pumping mechanism. As the pump operates, the vanes gradually wear and should be inspected at the manufacturer’s recommended intervals. Replacing worn vanes before failure can help protect the rotor and cylinder from avoidable damage and reduce the risk of unplanned downtime.
VacAir also supplies Elmo Rietschle spare parts and provides vacuum pump servicing and repairs.

REPLACING ELMO RIETSCHLE VLT 40 CARBON VANES
|
The Elmo Rietschle VLT 40 uses carbon vanes within its dry-running rotary vane pumping mechanism. These components are subject to gradual wear during operation and should be inspected and replaced according to the manufacturer’s maintenance recommendations. For a complete vane change, the VLT 40 requires 7 carbon vanes measuring 85 × 47 × 4 mm. The corresponding VacAir replacement reference is VA518943, equivalent to Rietschle OEM 518943. During vane replacement, inspect: ✓ Rotor slots for contamination and restricted vane movement
✓ Cylinder wall and internal running surfaces
✓ Rotor and bearing condition
✓ Inlet and exhaust filters
✓ Carbon dust and broken vane fragments
✓ Signs of overheating or uneven wear
Important: If a carbon vane has fractured, investigate the cause, inspect the internal running surfaces and remove all loose fragments before restarting the pump. Always follow the manufacturer’s fitting instructions.
