A pump has a housing defining at least one pumping chamber, and a plunger
slidably disposed within the at least one pumping chamber. The plunger is
movable between a first and second spaced apart end positions to
pressurize a fluid. The pump also has a driver operatively engaged with
the plunger to move the plunger between the first end position and the
second end position. The pump further has a high-pressure outlet in fluid
communication with the at least one pumping chamber. The high pressure
outlet passes pressurized fluid during movement of the plunger between
the first end position and the second end position. The passing of
pressurized fluid through the high-pressure outlet terminates before the
plunger completes movement from the first end position to the second end
position.
