Description
3582 pneumatic valve positioners and the 3582i
electro-pneumatic valve positioner shown in figure 1
are used with diaphragm-actuated, sliding-stem
control valve assemblies. The pneumatic valve
positioners receive a pneumatic input signal from a
control device and modulate the supply pressure to
the control valve actuator. The positioner adjusts the
actuator supply pressure to maintain a valve stem
position proportional to the pneumatic input signal.
3582NS positioners are designed for nuclear power
applications. The 3582NS construction includes
materials that provide superior performance at
elevated temperature and radiation levels. The
O-rings are EPDM (ethylene propylene) and the
diaphragms are EPDM/meta-aramid fabric. EPDM
demonstrates superior temperature capability and
shelf life over nitrile. The meta-aramid diaphragm
fabric demonstrates improved strength retention at
elevated temperature and radiation conditions.
CAUTION
Introduction
Scope of Manual
This instruction manual includes installation,
operation, calibration, maintenance, and parts
ordering information for Fisher 3582 pneumatic valve
positioners, the 3582i electro-pneumatic valve
positioner, and 3583 pneumatic valve stem position
transmitters. Refer to separate instruction manuals
for information on the control valve, actuator, and
accessories.
Do not install, operate or maintain a 3582 pneumatic
valve positioner, a 3582i electro-pneumatic valve
positioner, or a 3583 pneumatic valve stem position
transmitter without being fully trained and qualified in
valve, actuator and accessory installation, operation
and maintenance. To avoid personal injury or
property damage it is important to carefully read,
understand, and follow all of the contents of this
manual, including all safety cautions and warnings. If
Use a clean, dry, oil-free air supply
with instruments containing EPDM
components. EPDM is subject to
degradation when exposed to
petroleum-based lubricants.
Under the 10CFR50, Appendix B, quality assurance
program, the 3582NS positioner is qualified
commercial grade dedicated. These can be supplied
as 10CFR, Part 21 items.
The 3582i is an electro-pneumatic valve positioner,
consisting of a 582i electro-pneumatic converter
installed on a 3582 pneumatic valve positioner. The
3582i valve positioner provides an accurate valve
stem position that is proportional to a DC current
input signal.
The 582i electro-pneumatic converter is a modular
unit that can be installed at the factory or in the field.
However, do not install a 582i converter on an
existing positioner until you contact your Emerson
Process Management sales office for application
assistance.

3582, 582i, and 3583
The 582i converter receives the DC current input
signal and, through a nozzle/flapper arrangement,
provides a proportional pneumatic output signal.
This pneumatic output signal provides the input
signal to the pneumatic valve positioner, eliminating
the need for a remote-mounted transducer.
3583 pneumatic valve stem position transmitters are
for use with sliding-stem diaphragm actuators.
These units provide an output signal that is directly
proportional to the valve stem position.

any installation operations to avoid
personal injury.
If installing into an existing
application, also refer to the WARNING
at the beginning of the Maintenance
section in this instruction manual.
Check with your process or safety
engineer for any additional measures
that must be taken to protect against
process media.
WARNING
Personal injury or property damage
may result from fire or explosion if
natural gas is used as the supply
medium and appropriate preventative
measures are not taken. Preventative
measures may include, but are not
limited to, one or more of the
following: Remote venting of the unit,
re-evaluating the hazardous area
classification, ensuring adequate
ventilation, and the removal of any
ignition sources.
3582i does not meet third party
approvals for use with natural gas as
the supply medium. Use of natural gas
as the supply medium can result in
personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.

stem position transmitter, except for the 3582NS
positioner. For the 3582NS, the 67CFR is separately
mounted, not integrally mounted to the positioner.
Note
In some cases, alignment and
calibration of the valve positioner or
valve stem position transmitter at the
factory may not be possible, and field
alignment and calibration is required.
Before putting the valve positioner or
valve stem position transmitter into
service, check the operation of the unit
to be sure it is calibrated. If the valve
positioner or valve stem position
transmitter requires alignment or
calibration, refer to the appropriate
calibration instructions in this manual.
If the valve positioner or valve stem position
transmitter is ordered separately, disconnected, or
removed from the actuator, refer to the appropriate
sections of this manual for installation information.
Special Instructions for “Safe Use” and
Installation in Hazardous Locations for
582i Electro-Pneumatic Converter
Note
These Special Instructions for “Safe
Use” and Installation in Hazardous
Locations also apply to 3582i
positioners.
All valve positioners and valve stem
position transmitters are shipped with
foam rubber packing material inside
the case. Remove the cover (key 33,
figure 20) and the packing material
before attempting to operate the unit.
Make sure all vent openings are clear
before installation of the unit and that
they remain clear during use.
Typically, the positioner or transmitter is ordered with
the actuator. If so, the factory mounts the valve
positioner or valve stem position transmitter and
connects the valve positioner output to the actuator.
If a Fisher 67CFR filter-regulator is specified, it may
be integrally mounted to the valve positioner or valve
Certain nameplates may carry more than one
approval, and each approval may have unique
installation/wiring requirements and/or conditions of
“safe use”. These special instructions for “safe use”
are in addition to, and may override, the standard
installation procedures. Special instructions are
listed by approval.
WARNING
Failure to follow these conditions of
“safe use” could result in personal
injury or property damage from fire or
explosion, and area re-classification.

9. With the actuator at its mid-travel position, lift the
rotary shaft arm so that the 0-degree index marks on
the rotary shaft arm are aligned with the case index
marks as shown in figure 6.
CAUTION
Never set the travel pin at a setting
that is less than the actual actuator
stroke. Setting the travel pin at a
setting that is less than the actual
actuator stroke will cause the cam to
rotate more than 60 degrees, causing
damage to the cam or other parts.
11. Check the travel pin setting using the following
procedures:
D For standard travel pin setting (that is, with
the travel pin setting equal to total actuator travel).
Stroke the actuator to each end of its travel. At each
end of travel, the 30-degree index marks on the
rotary shaft arm should align with the case index
marks. If the index marks are not in line, loosen the
cap nut (key 62) and slide the travel pin (key 60) in
the rotary shaft arm slot until the 30-degree index
marks align with the case index marks. Be sure the
travel pin remains perpendicular to the connector
arm. After making this adjustment, tighten the cap
nut and re-check the arm at the mid-travel position. If
the 0-degree index marks do not align, repeat this
procedure.
D For special travel pin setting (that is, with the
travel pin setting greater than total actuator travel).
Check the index marks using a procedure similar to
the standard settings procedure. The arm will not
rotate a full 60 degrees as the actuator is stroked,
and the 30-degree index marks on the cam will be
short of aligning with the case index marks. If
necessary, adjust the travel pin position so that the
30-degree marks are the same distance from the
respective case index mark at each end of actuator
travel.

D For Valve Stem Position
Transmitters: If the arrow on the cam
points up toward the nozzle, output
pressure increases with downward
stem movement. If the arrow points
down, output pressure decreases with
downward stem movement.
If the arrow is pointing in the wrong
direction, use the following procedure
to remove, reverse, and re-install the
cam.
When mounting a valve positioner or valve stem
position transmitter, check to see if the correct cam
(key 4) and cam position has been selected. To
change the cam or cam position, unhook the
extension spring (key 38), and remove the cam bolt
and locking nut (keys 6 and 45). Remove the cam
and spring retainer bracket (key 43).
To install the cam, screw the locking nut all the way
onto the cam bolt. Attach the cam and spring
retainer bracket to the shaft assembly with the cam
bolt. Tighten the bolt to secure the cam. Then,
tighten the locking nut against the spring retainer
bracket. Hook the spring into the spring retainer
bracket.
Details on cam characteristics can be found in the

Pressure Connections
WARNING
Valve positioners and valve stem
position transmitters are capable of
providing full supply pressure to
connected equipment. To avoid
personal injury or equipment damage
caused by parts bursting from system
overpressure, make sure the supply
pressure never exceeds the maximum
safe working pressure of any
connected equipment.
Pressure connections are shown in figure 7. All
pressure connections are 1/4 NPT internal. Use
3/8-inch tubing for all pressure connections. After
making pressure connections, turn on the supply
pressure and check all connections for leaks.
Supply Connection
WARNING
Personal injury or property damage
may occur from an uncontrolled
process if the supply medium is not
clean, dry, oil-free air, or noncorrosive
gas. While use and regular
maintenance of a filter that removes
particles larger than 40 micrometers in
diameter will suffice in most
applications, check with an Emerson
Process Management field office and
industry instrument air quality
standards for use with corrosive air or
if you are unsure about the proper
amount or method of air filtration or
filter maintenance.
3582i does not meet third party
approvals for use with natural gas as
the supply medium. Use of natural gas
as the supply medium can result in
personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.
3582, 582i, and 3583
degradation when exposed to
petroleum-based lubricants.
Supply pressure must be clean, dry, oil-free air or
noncorrosive gas. Use a 67CFR filter regulator with
standard 5 micrometer filter, or equivalent, to filter
and regulate supply air. Except for the 3582NS, the
filter regulator can be mounted on the positioner. For
the 3582NS the regulator can be mounted on the
mounting plate with the positioner but not on the
positioner. The supply pressure should be high
enough to permit setting the regulator 0.3 bar (5 psi)
above the upper limit of the appropriate pressure
range, for example: 1.4 bar (20 psig) for a 0.2 to 1.0
bar (3 to 15 psig) range. However, do not exceed the
maximum allowable supply pressure of 3.4 bar (50
psig) nor the pressure rating of any connected
equipment.
Connect the nearest suitable supply source to the
1/4 NPT IN connection on the filter regulator (if
furnished) or to the 1/4 NPT SUPPLY connection on
the positioner block assembly.
Output Connection
A factory mounted valve positioner has the valve
positioner output piped to the supply connection on
the actuator. If mounting the valve positioner in the
field, connect 3/8-inch tubing between the 1/4 NPT
valve positioner connection marked OUTPUT and
the actuator supply pressure connection. Connect
the valve stem position transmitter connection
marked OUTPUT to an instrument that indicates
valve stem position.
Instrument Connection
CAUTION
Use a clean, dry, oil-free air supply
with instruments containing EPDM
components. EPDM is subject to
For a 3582 pneumatic valve positioner connect
3/8-inch tubing from the control device to the 1/4

WARNING
Personal injury or property damage
could result from fire or explosion of
accumulated gas if a flammable gas is
used as the supply pressure medium
and the positioner/actuator is in an
enclosed area. The positioner/actuator
assembly does not form a gas-tight
seal, and when the assembly is
enclosed, a remote vent line, adequate
ventilation, and necessary safety
measures should be used. For leakage
rates, see the Maximum Steady-State
Air Consumption specification. A
remote vent pipe alone cannot be
relied upon to remove all hazardous
gas. Vent line piping should comply
with local and regional codes and
should be as short as possible with
adequate inside diameter and few
bends to reduce case pressure
buildup.
WARNING
3582i does not meet third party
approvals for use with natural gas as
the supply medium. Use of natural gas
as the supply medium can result in
personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.
CAUTION
When installing a remote vent pipe,
take care not to overtighten the pipe in
the vent connection. Excessive torque
will damage the threads in the
connection.
The vent opening at the back of the case marked
VENT should be left open to prevent pressure
buildup inside the case and to provide a drain hole
for any moisture that might collect inside the case.
The perforated section of the nameplate normally
covers this opening to prevent blockage from debris
or insects. Also, ensure the exhaust holes in the
relay (key 32 in figure 20) are kept open.
If a remote vent is required, the vent line must be as
short as possible with a minimum number of bends
and elbows. The vent connection is 3/8 NPT internal.
Use 3/8-inch or larger tubing to provide a remote
vent. The 582i has a 1/4 NPT internal vent
connection. Use optional remote vent 83L relay for
remote vent applications.

application information before
upgrading an existing 3582 valve
positioner by field installation of a 582i
electro-pneumatic converter.
3582, 582i, and 3583
D Do not open when an explosive
dust atmosphere is present.
D Check with your process or safety
engineer for any additional measures
that must be taken to protect against
process media.
Note
Before planning to retrofit an installed
3582 positioner, refer to the positioner
mounting plate illustrations shown in
figure 5. Mounting plates with a
three-hole mounting pattern
(positioner to mounting plate) cannot
support a 582i converter. Do not
attempt to mount a 582i converter on
an existing 3582 positioner which has
a three-hole mounting pattern.
Isolate the control valve from the line pressure, and
release pressure from both sides of the valve body.
Use lock-out procedures to be sure that the above
measures stay in effect while you work on the
equipment.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury from sudden
release of process pressure. Before
mounting the 582i converter:
D Always wear protective clothing,
gloves, and eyewear when performing
any maintenance operations.
D Do not remove the actuator from
the valve while the valve is still
pressurized.
D Disconnect any operating lines
providing air pressure or a control
signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or
close the valve.
D Use bypass valves or completely
shut off the process to isolate the
valve from process pressure. Relieve
process pressure on both sides of the
valve.
D Vent actuator loading pressure.
D Use lock-out procedures to be
sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the
equipment.
If a 3582 pneumatic valve positioner has previously
been installed using a mounting plate with a
five-hole mounting pattern (positioner to mounting
plate), either at the factory or in the field, it can be
upgraded to a 3582i electro-pneumatic valve
positioner by installation of a 582i converter. To
install a 582i converter, refer to the following
instructions.
Note
Inspect the existing valve positioner to
determine the input signal range. If the
input signal range is not 0.2 to 1.0 bar
(3 to 15 psig), refer to the appropriate
sections of this manual describing
input signal ranges and how to change
the range spring.
1. Inspect the positioner mounting plate. Be certain
that five screws fasten the positioner to the mounting
plate. Two additional screws fasten the plate to the
actuator.
When the positioner is correctly attached to the
mounting plate, proceed with the installation by
taking the control valve/actuator/positioner package
out of service.
2. Properly vent the actuator loading pressure and
the supply pressure. Disconnect the pressure tubing
connections to the valve positioner.

Valve Positioner Cam Information
Note
The small arrow on the valve
positioner cam must point in the
direction of stem movement with
increasing actuator diaphragm
pressure. If the arrow is pointing in the
wrong direction, remove, reverse, and
re-install the cam. Refer to the
Changing Cam Position section of this
manual.
Refer to figure 20 for key number locations. Unhook
the spring (key 38), and remove the cam bolt and
locking nut (keys 6 and 45). Remove the cam (key 4)

When shipped from the factory, 3582 valve
positioners and the 3582i valve positioner have a
linear cam, Cam A, installed in the operating
position. Two characterized cams, Cams B and C,
are available. These characterized cams may be
used to modify the valve flow characteristics.
Figure 12 shows resultant stem travel due to an
incremental instrument pressure change for each
cam. In figure 12, the curves are based on 60
degrees cam rotation for 100 percent stem travel. At
50 percent of the input signal span, for example, the
stem will travel 50 percent with cam A, 68 percent
with cam B, and 32 percent with cam C. Figure 13
shows how the flow characteristics change when
using the cams with a valve that has equal
percentage characteristics. Figure 14 shows how the
flow characteristics change when using the cams
with a valve that has linear characteristics.

Valve Positioner Bypass Operation
3582 and 3582D valve positioners, and 3582NS
positioners with bypass, are supplied with a bypass
assembly. A handle on the bypass assembly permits
selecting positioner or bypass operation. Refer to
figure 24 for key number locations.
CAUTION
Do not use bypass when the valve
positioner is reverse-acting or is in
split-range operation. In these cases,

system when the bypass handle is
moved to BYPASS.
Table 12 shows some typical split-ranges for the
valve positioners.
With a reverse-acting or split-range valve positioner,
the bypass handle may be locked in the
POSITIONER position so that bypass cannot be
used. To lock the bypass handle in the
POSITIONER position, first shut off the instrument
and supply pressure to the valve positioner. Then,
remove the hex head shoulder screw from the center
of the handle. Remove the handle and rotate it 180
degrees and re-install it with the handle between the
two lugs cast on the bypass block. Replace the
shoulder screw.
To change to split-range operation, perform the
beam alignment procedures then perform the
calibration procedure using the desired split range
inputs that result in full valve travel. For example, for
a 3582 positioner with a 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig)
input signal range in a two-way split, a 0.6 bar (9
psig) input signal should completely stroke the valve
for a 0.2 to 0.6 bar (3 to 9 psig) signal range.

Note
The flapper must approach the nozzle
squarely at the midpoint value of the
input signal range for proper
operation.
On some applications where the input
signal span is comparatively small (as
found with split-range applications),
the nozzle adjustment may not be
enough to set the proper starting
point. Also, some difficulty may be
experienced in keeping a valve
positioner from unloading when the
input signal continues to increase
above the split-range.
For example, for a 0.2 to 0.6 bar (3 to 9
psig) input signal range, the input
signal could increase to 1.0 bar (15
psig). Continued bellows travel due to
the increased input signal over the
split-range would drive the flapper into
the nozzle. The impact could possibly
cause misalignment between the
flapper and nozzle. Such a
misalignment, in turn, could affect
split-range calibration.
In these cases, adjust the follower
assembly screw in addition to the
nozzle adjustment to obtain
satisfactory results.

Note
3582 valve positioners require a
relatively small percentage of the
instrument pressure span to obtain full
valve travel. With the travel pin set to
equal the valve travel, the input signal
change required to fully stroke the
valve can be reduced to 33 percent of
normal input signal change. With the
travel pin set to a value greater than
the valve travel, the input signal
change required to fully stroke the
valve can be reduced to a minimum of
20 percent of normal input signal
change.
Changing Valve Positioner Action
Converting a 3582 valve positioner or 3582i valve
positioner from direct acting (an increasing input
signal, either pneumatic or electrical, increases
output pressure) to reverse acting (increasing input
signal decreases output pressure) or vice versa
requires no additional parts. The position of the
flapper assembly on the beam determines the
action. As shown in figure 15, the beam is divided
into quadrants. The direct-acting quadrant of the
beam is labeled DIRECT and the reverse-acting
quadrant is labeled REVERSE. To change the
positioner action, simply move the flapper assembly
to the opposite quadrant of the beam. Perform the
calibration procedures in the valve positioner
calibration section.
Changing Valve Stem Position
Transmitter Action
Refer to figure 20 for key number locations unless
otherwise indicated.
The flapper of the 3583 valve stem position
transmitter is always positioned in the reverse-acting
quadrant as shown in figure 19. To reverse the
signal, reverse the cam as follows:
1. Unhook the spring (key 38), and remove the cam
bolt (key 6), cam (key 4), and spring retainer bracket
(key 43).
2. Screw the locking nut (key 45) all the way onto
the cam bolt.

Note
The beam is leveled at the factory prior
to shipment. Once the beam is leveled,
no additional leveling should be
required unless the beam pivot pin or
the bellows assembly pivot pin are
changed, the bellows assembly or
range spring are replaced, or the valve
positioner is changed to split range
operation.
The purpose of beam alignment is to ensure the
correct mechanical position of parts so the valve
positioner can be calibrated. Provide the appropriate
supply pressure. Also, provide an input signal to the
positioner which can be manually set at the midpoint
of the desired input signal range.
Refer to figure 15 for parts locations. Refer to figure
20 for key number locations unless otherwise
indicated. Position the flapper assembly by hand to
different settings on the beam assembly or by using
a screwdriver in the slot of the flapper setting
adjustment.
To level the beam, proceed as follows:

adjust the beam pivot pin until the 0-degree index
marks on the rotary shaft arm align with the case
index marks. Tighten the locknut.
8. Repeat steps 5, 6, and 7 to optimize alignment.
Recheck to make sure the flapper approaches the
nozzle squarely. If it does not, adjust the nozzle and
re-level the beam. After alignment, the valve
positioner is ready for calibration.
Calibration
WARNING
Note
For proper operation, the flapper must
approach the nozzle squarely. Inspect
the nozzle/flapper alignment. Be sure
the flapper is not loose, bent, or
twisted.
3. Remove any loading pressure and/or disengage
any handwheel used to position the actuator.
Connect the necessary tubing from the valve
positioner output to the actuator pressure
connection.
4. Connect the input to the valve positioner and set
the input signal value at midrange. For example, for
a 3582 valve positioner with a 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15
psig) input signal range, set the input signal at 0.6
bar (9 psig). Then apply supply pressure to the valve
positioner.
During calibration the valve may move.
To avoid personal injury or property
damage caused by the release of
pressure or process fluid, provide
some temporary means of control for
the process.
1. Shut off the supply pressure to the valve
positioner. Connect or reconnect the necessary
tubing from the valve positioner output to the
actuator supply connection. Connect the input to the
valve positioner and set the input signal value at
midrange.
2. Move the flapper assembly to approximately
position 6 in the proper operating quadrant of the
beam (direct or reverse acting), and apply supply
pressure to the valve positioner. The 0 degree index
marks on the rotary shaft arm should align with the
case index marks as shown in figure 16 and the
25

3582, 582i, and 3583
actuator should be at its midtravel position. If not,
first check for loose linkage or improper cam
installation. A minor nozzle height adjustment might
be necessary to make the desired input signal value
correspond to the starting point of travel.
3. Apply an input signal equal to the low value of the
input signal range. For example, for a 3582 valve
positioner with a 0.2 to 1.0 bar (3 to 15 psig) input
signal range, set the input signal at 0.2 bar (3 psig).
Loosen the nozzle locknut and adjust the nozzle until
the actuator moves to the proper end of its travel.
Changing the nozzle position is intended only as a
means of zero trim adjustment. Whenever nozzle
position is changed, the zero reference point is
changed.
4. Apply an input signal equal to the high value of
the input signal range and observe the actuator stem
travel. If the stem travel is short of its expected
range, increase the travel by moving the flapper
assembly to a higher number on the beam. If the
desired stem travel occurs before the input signal
reaches the high value of the input signal range,
decrease the travel by moving the flapper assembly
toward a lower number on the beam.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the correct travel is
achieved. Each time the flapper position is changed
in step 4, repeat step 3 to provide proper zero.

Principle of Operation
3582 Valve Positioners
The 3582 (3582, 3582NS and 3582A, C, D, and G
pneumatic valve positioners) accepts a pneumatic
input signal from a control device. Figure 17 is an
operational schematic for a direct-acting pneumatic
valve positioner.
As shown in figure 17, in a diaphragm-actuated,
sliding stem control valve package with a 3582 valve
positioner, supply pressure is connected to the 83L
relay. A fixed restriction in the relay limits flow to the
nozzle so that when the flapper is not restricting the
nozzle, air can bleed out faster than it is being
supplied.
Moving the flapper assembly toward zero on the
beam scale decreases stem travel. Table 13 lists the
minimum stem travel available for different travel pin
settings. For example, with a travel pin setting of 2
the minimum stem travel possible, for the full input
signal range, would be 11 mm (0.4375 inch).
Note
The positioner will fully vent or
pressurize the actuator to supply
pressure at the ends of actuator travel
when the positioner is calibrated
correctly. Failure to properly calibrate
the positioner may result in reduced
seat loading.
The input signal from the control device is connected
to the bellows. When the input signal increases, the
bellows expands and moves the beam. The beam
pivots about the input axis moving the flapper closer
to the nozzle. The nozzle pressure increases and,
through relay action, increases the output pressure
to the actuator. The increased output pressure to the
actuator causes the actuator stem to move
downward. Stem movement is fed back to the beam
by means of a cam. As the cam rotates, the beam
pivots about the feedback axis to move the flapper
slightly away from the nozzle. The nozzle pressure
decreases and reduces the output pressure to the
actuator. Stem movement continues, backing the
flapper away from the nozzle, until equilibrium is
reached.
When the input signal decreases, the bellows
contracts (aided by an internal range spring) and the
beam pivots about the input axis to move the flapper
away from the nozzle. Nozzle pressure decreases

and the relay permits the release of diaphragm
casing pressure to atmosphere. The actuator stem
moves upward. Through the cam, stem movement is
fed back to the beam to reposition the flapper closer
to the nozzle. When equilibrium conditions are
obtained, stem movement stops and the flapper is
positioned to prevent any further decrease in
diaphragm case pressure.
The principle of operation for reverse acting units is
similar except that as the input signal increases, the
diaphragm casing pressure is decreased.
Conversely, a decreasing input signal causes an
increase in the pressure to the diaphragm casing.
3582i Valve Positioner
As shown in figure 18, the 3582i electro-pneumatic
valve positioner has a 582i electro-pneumatic
converter attached to the valve positioner. The 582i
contains an I/P module which provides a pneumatic
output proportional to a DC current input signal. The
DC current input operates coils in a force balanced
beam system which in turn, control bleed air through
an integral nozzle/flapper arrangement. The nozzle
pressure provides the pneumatic input signal
pressure used by the pneumatic valve positioner.
3583 (3583, 3583C) pneumatic valve stem position
transmitters are mechanically linked to the valve
stem in a diaphragm-actuated, sliding-stem control
valve package. A change in the position of the valve
stem changes the output pressure produced by the
position transmitter. This signal is then piped to a
reporting or recording device to indicate valve stem
position.
The action of a valve stem position transmitter can
be changed by reversing the internal cam. The valve
stem position transmitter cam is supplied with an
arrow stamped on one side. The cam can be
positioned to obtain either increasing or decreasing
output pressure with downward stem motion. If the
cam arrow points toward the nozzle, the output
pressure increases; if the cam points away, the
output pressure decreases with downward stem
motion.
Figure 19 depicts a diaphragm actuator which
produces downward stem motion for increasing
actuator pressure. For a stem position transmitter,
the flapper assembly is always positioned in the
reverse-acting quadrant of the beam. Supply
pressure is connected to the 83L relay. A fixed
restriction in the relay limits flow to the nozzle so that
when the flapper is not restricting the nozzle, air can
bleed out faster than it is being supplied.

As the pressure to the diaphragm actuator
increases, the valve stem moves downward, causing
the internal cam to rotate. Cam rotation causes the
beam to pivot about the input axis moving the
flapper closer to the nozzle. The nozzle pressure
increases which, through relay action, increases the
output pressure.
The output pressure is also connected to the
bellows. As the output pressure increases, the
bellows expands, causing the beam to pivot about
the feedback axis moving the flapper slightly away
from the nozzle until equilibrium is reached. The
position transmitter output pressure is now
proportional to the valve stem position.
As the pressure to the diaphragm actuator
decreases, the valve stem moves upward, causing
the internal cam to rotate. Cam rotation causes the
beam to pivot about the input axis moving the
flapper away from the nozzle. The nozzle pressure
decreases which, through relay action, decreases
the output pressure. The bellows contracts, causing
the beam to pivot about the feedback axis and
moving the flapper closer to the nozzle until
equilibrium is reached. The position transmitter
output pressure is again proportional to the valve
stem position.

Maintenance
Due to normal wear or damage from external
sources (such as debris in the supply medium),
periodic maintenance or repair of the valve
positioner or valve stem position transmitter may be
necessary. Maintenance of these units consists of
troubleshooting, removal for inspection, and
replacement of component parts.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury from sudden
release of process pressure. Before
performing any maintenance
operations:
D Always wear protective clothing,
gloves, and eyewear when performing
any maintenance operations.
D Do not remove the actuator from
the valve while the valve is still
pressurized.
D Disconnect any operating lines
providing air pressure, or a control
signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or
close the valve.
D When disconnecting any of the
pneumatic connections, natural gas, if
used as the supply medium, will seep
from the unit and any connected
equipment into the surrounding
atmosphere. Personal injury or
property damage may result from fire
or explosion if appropriate
preventative measures are not taken.
Preventative measures may include,
but are not limited to, one or more of
the following: ensuring adequate
ventilation and the removal of any
ignition sources.
D Use bypass valves or completely
shut off the process to isolate the
valve from process pressure. Relieve
process pressure on both sides of the
valve.
D Use lock-out procedures to be
sure that the above measures stay in
effect while you work on the
equipment.
D Check with your process or safety
engineer for any additional measures
28

approvals for use with natural gas as
the supply medium. Use of natural gas
as the supply medium can result in
personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion,
WARNING
For explosion proof applications,
disconnect power before removing the
converter housing cap in an explosive
atmosphere.
WARNING
When replacing components, use only
components specified by Emerson
Process Management. Substitution
with other components may result in
