There is some sort of pressure by pass in the pump, different springs allow higher pressure with same volume, hell idk. I know you can flow the same volume with different pressures by by changing the outlet size, but I won't pretend I know this is how it works .
Melling lists them different, one as high pressure, the other as high volume/high pressure, so whatever that means.
