Default Air compressor reg solenoid what do I have??

I bought this from a guy that didn't know what he had and neither do I. It's a MFHE-3-1/2 Festo Solenoid and regulator. I don't understand what the solenoid is for. I plan on just using the regulator and doing away with the solenoid unless there is a use for it. Does the solenoid run the compressor or do something more amazing?

This regulator was probably used to control the air supply on and industrial type of machine that had the air supply valve interlocked to the machine power. When the machine was de-energized or "Locked-Out" the air is dumped and the solenoid closes.

You can remove this section from the unit and it should operate just fine.

By the way.........when you install this, pay attention to the directional arrow that is on the unit........somewhere, otherwise, it will not work properly.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
