The 585C linear piston actuator is a powerful,
double-acting actuator that provides accurate
throttling or on-off operation for sliding-stem control
valves.
The 585C piston actuator family is available in sizes 25
to130tocoverawiderangeofthrustandtravellength
requirements. It can be used with switching valves for
on-off control, or with the DVC6200 digital valve
controller or 3600 positioner for throttling
applications.
The 585C has a wide-range of supply pressure
capabilities, up to 150 psig. As the 585C is
double-acting, the positioner supplies air to both sides
of the piston, resulting in stiff, precise movement and
control.
Information for the 585CLS long stroke actuator can
be found in Fisher bulletin 61.2:585CLS
(D103792X012).

High frequencyresponseThe doubleacting construction allows quick responseto instrument signals.
Stiff construction
Handwheels
Bias springs
With air supplycapability of up to150 psig, the 585C can produce up to 111,000Newtons (25,000pounds) thrust to
overcome high valve unbalance.
Depending on size, the 585C can be mounted to yoke boss diameters of 2-1/8 inches through 5-inches, and valve
stem diameters of up to 1-1/4 inch.
Universal NAMUR mounting provides a consistent mounting method for all sizes. This mounting capability provides
vibration resistance per ISA-S75.13.
Pressure on both sides ofthe piston, plus the relatively smallvolume ofair withinthe cylinder,results instiff, precise
positioning.
585C size25 and 50 actuators are available with a top-mounted handwheel. All other 585C actuator sizes can
accommodate a side-mounted handwheel.
The sizes 25 and 50 are available with bias springs. A bias spring under the piston fully retracts the actuator stem upon
loss of supply air, while a bias spring ontop of the piston fully extends the actuator stem. The spring bias mode is
easily reversed without the need for additional parts.

Principle of Operation
The585Cpistonactuator(figures1and2)usesa
piston that moves inside the actuator cylinder. An
O-ring (see figure 1) provides a seal between the piston
and the cylinder.
From an equilibrium state, the actuator reacts to a
force unbalance that is created by increasing supply
pressure on one side of the piston,and decreasing it on
the other. This moves the piston up or down, and
results in a repositioning of the valve control element.

Actuator with Handwheel (figures 3
and 6)
The handwheel version can be used to open or close
the valve manually (either during normal operation or
in an emergency), to position the valve at any point in
the stroke, or to act as a travel stop.
Size 25 and 50 actuators use an integral top-mounted
handwheel. See figure 6.
Size 60 to 130 actuators use a side-mounted
handwheel, and come with a spring-loaded ball detent
which prevents vibration from changing the
handwheel setting. Handwheels for most types are
either 203 mm (8 inches) in diameter with beveled
gears or 432 mm (17 inches) in diameter with worm
gears.
W7447-1
Actuator with Spring Return
(figure 4)
585C size 25 & 50 actuators are available with bias
springs. The 585C actuator with bias spring has the
spring under the piston and fully retracts the actuator
stem upon loss of cylinder pressure. The bias spring in
the 585CR actuator is on top of the piston and fully
extends the actuator stem upon loss of cylinder
pressure. No additional parts are required to convert
from one actuator type to the other.

If the supply source is capable of exceeding the
maximum actuator operating pressure or instrument

X indicates where the listed supply pressure willexceed the maximum thrust allowable.
1. The maximum design pressure for size 25 through 100 actuators is 10.3 bar (150 psig). Size68 and 130 actuators are limited to 9.7 and 7.8 bar(140 and 113psig)respectively.
2. The size 25 and 50 data is forthe construction without a biasspring.
3. Minimum operatingpressure for sizes 60-130 actuators is 2.4 bar (35 psig).
4. The size 68 actuator with a handwheel is limited to 40000 Newtons (9000 lb) thrust.
1. The C dimension shown is for FIELDVUEDVC6200 digital valve controllers. Add 38.1 mm (1.5 inches) to this dimension for 3620JP positioners.
Subtract 12.7 mm(0.5 inches) from thisdimension for 3610JP positioners.
