Air Dryer
Hi,
I'm looking for the translation of a term: "QPM", it seems it's a part of an air dryer.
I find it in that sentence: "Unscrew QPM retaining bolts" and I really can't find what it is.
And I found it in another document:
"12,000 hour service kits contain:
Desiccant cartridges
QPM to tower o-rings
QPM to valve block o-ring"
I am looking for its translation in French. Could you help me?

This same document does later mention QPM, and also O-rings etc., so I think it is a perfectly reasonable assumption they are referring to the same thing; the 'manifold' recurs quite a lot in the doc. as a whole, it is clearly a key component!

: But how could that possibly fit in Asker's context, which appears to be talking about some kind of mechanical component?
