Zusammenfassung:A pump assembly (22) including a piston (36) reciprocal within a cylinder (48) for pressurizing a fluid in a pressure chamber (38) of the cylinder. A biasing member is configured to exert a driving force on the piston to drive the piston in a pumping direction from a reset position to a deployed position. A drivetrain (34) is engageable with the piston and provides power sufficient to transition the piston back to the reset position. A stroke limiting mechanism (42) has a stopping member (82) with a stopping surface (86) against which a protrusion (92) of the piston contacts to define a stroke length of the piston by limiting movement of the piston in the pumping direction (94) when the protrusion engages the stopping surface. The stopping member has a first configuration corresponding to a first stroke length for the piston and a second configuration corresponding to a second stroke length.
