French term or phrase: Electrovanne soufflette arrasage
From a list of parts. I think there is a typo and it should be 'arasage', not double r.

The company involved specialises in packaging machines used in the food industry. These are obviously spare parts from such machines. I will include the entire list (the above is probably not the only one I am going to need help with - although I have managed most of them) as context. See 9th item in the list.

Here's the list:

Défaut variateur moteur tête d’encollage
-Emboutissage
-Groupe en automatique
-Groupe en manuel
-Détection niveau colle Nordson
-Autorisation générateur de colle Hot-Melt
-Niveau
-Autorisation colle
-Disque dépose colle

-Porte étiquette

English translation:solenoid valve for trimming blower
Explanation:
Well, the solenoid valve bit is easy!
I would imagine this is some kind of blower that blows away debris at the trimming stage...?

Thanks... seemed to fit the context - I used a translator's note to qualify it, due to the uncertainty. Always difficult with no diagram and no extra context. Thanks

agree  Robert Frankling: No picture. This is a good guess for a label applicator of some sort...some customers expect the Mighty Kreskin..."trimmer air jet" but not "blower" which is a force draft fan. Addendum: In total agreement with your conclusion. A crystal ball would help.

  -> Thanks, Robert! I wondered about 'air jet', but felt it was important to make it clear this is not a 'cutting' air jet, but a 'blowing away' one?
