Default Difference between kitchen and bathroom fan?

Hi,

bought a Manrose 150mm/6" extractor fan from Screwfix to use in the kitchen.

Having finally (after a week of man flu) got round to opening the package I
see that the fan is labelled "For Bathrooms and Toilets".

So what is the difference?

Is a kitchen fan a higher extraction rate?

This is rated at up to 230m3 per hour.

TIA

Bigger mainly.
IIRC 170 l/m is the lowest a kitchen fan can be. I forget. I did check
it out and big ones were kosher for the kitchen little ones for the bogs.
