I changed out the blowers & motors in two Christie Xenolite K30 xenon lamps but never posted the replacement part numbers. Here they are.

Dayton makes the perfect replacement motor and squirrel cage blower with housing, fits right in with a minimum of modification, although you might have to drill out the mounting bolt holes to get them to line up properly.

Dayton part # 4C446, available through Grainger, current pricing around $80 each. These are 60Hz 120V 148 CFM, and they blow in the right direction. Both blowers are interchangeable in the lamphouse. One is for drawing in cooling air for the bulb and the other is the exhaust blower.
