10 years out of my last pump and a failure on a Thursday night while climbing out to pick my son up for Friday departure to Oshkosh 24. Was nice to hear that Oshkosh had four in inventory for the show . A quick re and re on Monday with the air show behind me and an Amand p or Ame in Canada working in the emergency barn to double check my work until I got home for my own mechanic to sign off with all the pictures I took for him . Thank you to aircraft spruce for having the Chicago inventory at Oshkosh again this year 👍

Good price on new unit. I will pay more attention to what else people buy when they purchase a pump. (I should have bought filters as well). Greg
Perfect fit, easy to install (make sure you have some special wrenches to get to the lower inboard nut! Or buy the special wrench Rapco makes). Works flawlessly, have about 5 hrs on it now, no issues.
Great service, fast delivery from aircraft spruce, the vacum pump An exact fit for my cessna 182P.
Great service!! Super fast delivery!!!
Perfect fit for my 1973 Cessna 150L
Very fast shipment. Reasonable price. Hasnt been operated yet but Ive installed these before and there have been no problems. Everyone please be sure to change out both filters too when you install one of these.

Yes. All Rapco approved parts now come with an 8130-3 form that is good for export as well as domestic.
Per Rapco: Any pump will run mounted in any position however the 215CC-9 dry air pump was primarily designed to hang vertically on the bottom of an Continental O-200 engine, in a location with a high probability of oil contamination. If oil gets into the pump it will gum up the vanes and they will cease to produce suction. Oil contamination is the number 2 cause of premature dry air pump failure next to foreign object damage. Airborne attempted to deal with this contamination problem by putting a slinger ring on the drive shaft to throw off any oil that might happen to drip down. The oil is slung into a channel with a drain hole to try to get it away from the shaft. It helps although if the oil problem is not soon resolved the pump will soon fail to operate. There were also a few other applications in which the aircraft manufacturer called out for this particular pump to go on aircraft with Lycoming O-320 engines, even though on that engine the pump is situated horizontally. On new RAPCO pumps we use a proprietary oil seal on the drive shaft, instead of the slinger ring, to deal with oil contamination issues. In addition to the RAP215CC-9 all of our new dry air pumps have it.
From the drive-face or mounting pad, to the furthest rear location is about 4.350 inches.
There is not a specific filter to pump application. The aircraft parts manual will show the filter used for that airframes vacuum system. Otherwise there are several to choose from, like p/n RA1J7-1.
Yes, they are interchangeable and will have the same external dimensions.
Yes the gasket is included.
RAP215CC new, our part # 10-23925. 215cc overhauled our part # 10-03084.
P/N# 10-23925 will be the correct replacement as the 200CC has been superseded to the 215CC pump.
Yes, the Rapco 215cc replaces the Airborne 215cc.
It does not, a RAP215CC is a DRY air pump and there should be no oil in the system to separate.
