Abstract

A dispensing pump includes a linear actuator mounted on a base. The linear actuator includes a drive rod having a coupler. The coupler joins the drive rod to a first end of a connecting member. A second end of the connecting member is secured to a lower base portion of the base. An attachment plate attaches a motor to a first end of an upper base portion of the base. A flag is secured to the drive rod coupler, wherein the flag moves directly with the drive rod. The flag includes a body and a calibration element. The calibration element is positionally adjustable relative to the flag body. The calibration element is adapted to activate a proximity sensor when the linear drive is in a home position. The home position is adjustable upon adjustment of the calibration member.
