Messverfahren
Den Filter/Das Segment über geeignete Adapter an das Messsystem anschliessen. Kontinuierliche Ermittlung des ***Gegendrückverlaufs*** für Massendurchsätze von 0 bis 1000 m3/h bei Raumtemperatur.


I would like to be sure of the best way of translating Gegendruckverlauf here. The text is about the testing of diesel particulate filters. In this section, they are talking about the backpressure.

TIA
