To start with, there is a nice 15amp rated mains lead.
Then an interference isolating unit, usually comprising some capacitors and
a choke.
Usually, a rather nice water pump that will do duty as a suds pump.
The motor WITH the control unit and a few bits and pieces makes a nice
bariable speed drive for a lathe or other machine. I have been using one on
my ML7 for years.
There are one, or probably two, low-pressure switches, which, in some cases,
may be variable. They can be used any time you need to switch anything
electrical from a pressure variation.
Most of the rest is scrap. But after taking that lot out, there wont be much
left.
