Where can I get a replacement lamp for my Microtek Phantom 636 scsnner

Not worth the time and money, just find one on sale.

I'm sure the lamp replacement is not a difficult task but finding the lamp itself could be a problem since even the manufacturers are not very helpful.
Did you ask them if they carry the lamp?

beware of the materials that are used are usually very soft witch used by Fein in his budget machine class.

Only a dutch version but the same parts positions.
MSxe 636 II 50Hz 230V

It doesn't seem to be replaceable... at least not easily. Check out the link to reviews on Amazon.com from purchaser's of this scanner:

Hi there

Firstly check when the Projector is switched on , if all the fans are running.

If they are , then it can only be one of two things - either the Powersupply or the Ballast that has gone faulty.

Is there any indicator lights on the unit that flickers , and also what colour ?

Take out the lamp and check for any irreugularities on it like discolouration ( vein like looking marks in either white or black ) or if there is any bubbles on the shaft of the lamp. In which case the lamp will be at fault and will need replacement !

JKL Components was able to create a new bulb for me for Microtek 9800 XL with Transparency Adapter. If you have a different model might need to send the bulb so they can see if it needs to be modified. Worked perfectly. Call Larry: 818-896-0019 ext 124. Very nice, and very helpful

The E6 Scanner lamp can be substituted by a standard
F8T5CW lamp. It is 12 insches long, uses 8 watts, is in the
T5 tube size with two prongs at each end and cool white, not
warm white. The replacement lamp works fine.

From the Microtek KB: www.microtek.com Scans that produce lines, fading, and discoloration generally result from a corrupt scanner driver installation or a burned out lamp. To determine if your problem is caused by a burned out lamp, simply open the scanner lid and check the color of the lamp. If the color is a shade of red, pink, or green, then the lamp is burned out. Perform a scanner preview to get a clear view of the lamp. If the lamp is a bright white and the problem still exists, please contact technical support.

Look at the lamp to see if it is dim or burned out; if the lamp is defective, you can contact Microtek here: http://support.microtek.com
