Contexte:
The valve volume is the volume displaced by the pump and hence does not account for volume retained in the kit. For example, the net volume for valve A would over-estimate the volume that has been delivered to the waste bag by the volume of the chamber.

English term (edited):
over-estimate by the volume
surestimer du volume
The EN is fine, but judging by the other answers, your parsing may not be helping comprehension here: you need to look at the verb expression as a whole 'over-estimate by...' followed by the amount by which it is over-estimated.
Not sure whether 'de' is correct here, but I think we would say 'surestimer de 10%', wouldn't we?

: Mais, à la fin, il fallait bien comprendre la source... et ensuite bien le dire en français. Mais c'est Tony qui a dégagé tout ça ;-) (E grazie anche a David! Thanx to you too, David!)
