This is the main unit motor assembly for the Rexair Rainbow E Series, single-speed, 120 volt, catalog number R7816G. It is the vacuum motor that drives the Rainbow's airflow, supplied as a complete assembly rather than as loose components, so a failed motor can be swapped without rebuilding. A Rainbow that has lost suction, is drawing high current or has become loud from bearing wear is usually a motor replacement.
