Installation
WARNING
Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any installation operations to avoid personal
injury.
To avoid personal injury or property damage caused by bursting of pressure‐retaining parts or by uncontrolled process
fluid, be certain the service conditions do not exceed the limits shown on the valve nameplate and in table 1. Use
pressure‐relieving devices required by government or accepted industry codes and good engineering practices.
Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this
instruction manual.
WARNING
For explosionproof applications, ensure the actuator cover is properly bolted before applying power to the actuator.
Personal injury or property damage may result from fire or explosion if power is applied to the actuator with the cover
removed in a hazardous area.
For explosion‐proof applications, install rigid metal conduit and a conduit seal no more than 457 mm (18 inches) from the
actuator. Personal injury or property damage may result from explosion if the seal is not installed.
Select wiring and/or cable glands that are rated for the environment of use (such as hazardous area, ingress protection, and
temperature). Failure to use properly rated wiring and/or cable glands can result in personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.

Wiring connections must be in accordance with local, regional, and national codes for any given hazardous area approval.
Failure to follow the local, regional, and national codes could result in personal injury or property damage from fire or
explosion.
Instruction Manual
D104161X012
CAUTION
When ordered, the valve configuration and construction materials were selected to meet particular pressure, temperature,
pressure drop, and controlled fluid conditions. Responsibility for the safety of process media and compatibility of valve
materials with process media rests solely with the purchaser and end‐user. Since some body/trim material combinations
are limited in their pressure drop and temperature ranges, do not apply any other conditions to the valve without first
contacting your Emerson Automation Solutions sales office.
To avoid product damage, inspect the valve before installation for any damage or any foreign material that may have
collected in the valve body. Also remove any pipe scale, welding slag, or other foreign material from the pipeline.
1. Before installing the control valve assembly, inspect it for any damage and for any foreign material that may have
collected in the valve body.
2. Clean out all pipelines to remove scale, welding slag, and other foreign materials.
3. The control valve assembly may be installed in any orientation, but normally the actuator is vertical above the valve.
Install the valve so the flow direction arrow on the side of the valve indicates the direction of the process flow.
4. Install the valve following local and national piping codes when they apply to the application. For screwed
connections, treat the external pipe threads with a good grade pipe compound. For flanged connections, use
suitable gaskets between valve and pipeline flanges.
5. If continuous operation is required during inspection or maintenance, install a three‐valve bypass around the
control valve assembly.
Special Instructions for “Safe Use” and Installations in Hazardous Locations
ATEX/IECEx
WARNING
To avoid static discharge from the enclosure, do not rub or clean the enclosure with solvents. To do so could result in an
explosion. Clean with a mild detergent and water only.
The enclosure is nonconducting and may generate an ignitioncapable level of electrostatic charges under certain extreme
conditions. The user should ensure that the equipment is not installed in a location where it may be subjected to external
conditions (such as highpressure steam) which might cause a buildup of electrostatic charges on nonconducting surfaces.
Additionally, cleaning of the equipment shall only be done with a damp cloth.
To avoid damage to the enclosure, when screws are fully tightened into blind holes in enclosure walls, with no washer
fitted, at least one full thread shall remain free at the base of the hole.

the application does not match table 2, proceed to the Configuration section.
Configuration
Input Configuration
There are two functional configurations available for the easyDrive electric actuator: On/Off and Positioning. It is
possible to change an actuator from On/Off to Positioning after it has been delivered from the factory using a
positioning license key. See licensing section.
All available input signals are shown in table 3.
Table 3. All Available Input Signals
CONFIGURATION ON/OFF POSITIONING
Control Source Modbus Local Modbus Local
Input Signal Modbus
L2e Dual Dry Contact
(default)
Single Dry Contact Modbus 4-20 mA (default)
If you are using the default inputs signals, and the valve has not been disassembled or adjusted in any way, there is no
need to recalibrate the assembly. You can proceed directly to Startup (page 17).
Changing the Inputs from Default Settings
All configuration within the valve is done by setting values in Modbus registers. This can be done using any Modbus
master (flow computer, PLC, PC). Configuration software, providing a visual interface to the registers, is available
through your Emerson sales office
.
Modbus setup
Use of a serial or USB to RS-485 device is required to connect to the actuator. Refer to manufacturer's requirements for
installation. The D3 with easyDrive electric actuator Modbus factory defaults are Address 1, 9600 baud, even parity, 1
stop bit, MSB.
When a connection has been achieved, the actuator may be configured to accept the input signal over the Modbus
link (ignoring the physical inputs) and the Modbus settings may be changed to accommodate the network to which it
is attached. Other changes to functionality are possible, such as:
D Low level cutoff: 40054 (default is 5%)
D Position upon loss of signal: 40053 (default is 0%)
See Appendix A for a full map of Modbus registers and their functions.

Connecting using the Fisher easyDrive configuration software
The Fisher easyDrive configuration software allows configuration and diagnosing of the Fisher easyDrive electric
actuator with a graphical interface. Connect a PC to the actuator using a USB or serial device to Modbus RTU converter
using the wiring instructions above. The USB or serial device will be visible in the drop menu under Serial Port Settings.
Baud rate and parity should be set to the Modbus settings of the actuator. Default actuator settings are address 1,
9600 baud, even parity, 1 stop bit, MSB. Press the AUTO button in the upper left corner to connect to the valve.
Use the Fisher easyDrive configuration software (figure 10) to make the desired changes, or register values may be
changed to allow different functionality.
Note
If an actuator is on/off, a Modbus command of 0499 in register 40001 will cause the valve to close fully, while a value of 5001000
will cause the valve to open fully. The command register has one implied decimal point.
Initial Setup
The control method selection determines what control signal to which the valve will respond. Only the control signal
selected will result in movement of the valve; all others will be ignored. The control methods available are dependent
upon the licensing tier purchased with the valve. The functions for each tier are shown below.

Instruction Manual
D104161X012
D3 Valve with Gen 2 easy-Drive Actuator
April 2022
If an easy-Drive valve has been shipped from the Fisher factory, it is not necessary to perform a span calibration. If,
however, the valve has a new controller board or maintenance has been performed on the valve, such as trim
replacement, it will be necessary to perform a span calibration. A span calibration is accomplished by the following
method:
1. Ensure the process and valve are in a safe state – the valve may move during this operation
2. Press the CALIBRATE SPAN button to initiate the span calibration. The software will show a progress bar during the
calibration and display Valve Span Calibrated when complete.
Analog Input Calibration
For valves using 4-20 mA as a control source, several options are available to customize control of the actuator. Use a
4-20 mA signal generator to provide the desired signal. It is possible to calibrate the 4-20 mA signal in reverse acting or
split-ranging with the method below with at least 4 mA of signal difference between the close and open values. The
example shows a valve being changed from normal to reverse acting during the calibration process.
1. With the Control Method set to 4-20mA Positioning or 4-20mA Level, enter the Calibration screen and the
4-20mA Signal Calibration window will be visible.
2. Click the CALIBRATE CLOSE & OPEN VALUES button. A separate window will open to guide through the process.
3. Set the 4-20 mA signal to the desired value for when the valve is to be closed.
4. Enter this value into the Calibrated mA Signal text box and press Next
Figure 12.
5. Set the 4-20 mA signal to the desired value for when the valve is to be open.
6. Enter this value into the Calibrated mA Signal text box and press Next
13

Instruction Manual
D104161X012
7. If the Close and Open values are as expected, press Confirm to accept these values. If not, press Cancel to restart
the process.
Note
Note 1: The value of the 4-20 mA signal must have at least 4 mA difference between the close and open signals. A differential less
than that amount will cause the actuator to reject the calibration and use the previous values.
Note 2: Should the entered values vary more than 10% from the expected 4-20 mA values; the actuator will accept the calibration
and a Notification displaying “Questionable Analog Calibration” will result.
Figure 14.
Calibration with the use of Modbus
1. After the unit has been properly wired and fused per instructions in the Wiring section of this instruction manual,
turn power to the unit on.
2. Calibrate using Modbus:
a. Send position command of 0% to actuator to prevent unexpected motion. Valve will move to commanded
position following the calibration procedure.
14
Page 15
Instruction Manual
D104161X012
b. Send a value of 1 to register 40043. Valve plug will move to fully open position and then to fully closed. The valve
plug will then return to the commanded position.
If a Modbus connection is not available, and recalibration is desired, use the appropriate calibration method as
determined by the control method of your valve.
D3 Valve with Gen 2 easy-Drive Actuator
April 2022
Calibration without the use of Modbus
1. Turn power to the actuator off.
2. Wait for 10 seconds to ensure all circuits have discharged.
3. Return power to the actuator and use the appropriate calibration method for your control signal. Calibration
sequence must be done within 15 seconds of power being switched on.
4. For positioning operation using 4-20 mA:
a. Apply a 4 mA signal between pins 4-20 mA - and 4-20 mA +. If Span is currently uncalibrated, valve plug will not
move at this time.
b. Apply a 20 mA signal between pins 4-20 mA - and 4-20 mA +. If Span is currently uncalibrated, valve plug will not
move at this time.
c. Apply a 4 mA signal between pins 4-20 mA - and 4-20 mA +; valve plug will move to the upper stop, immediately
followed by moving to the lower, closed position.
d. If calibration of the analog input is desired to improve positional accuracy, an optional operation is listed on
page 13 titled Analog Input Calibration.
5. For On/Off operation using dual-input dry contact:
a. Close the contact to create a short between pins COMMON and CLOSE. If Span is currently uncalibrated, valve
plug will not move at this time.
b. Close the contact to create a short between pins COMMON and OPEN. If Span is currently uncalibrated, valve
plug will not move at this time.
c. Close the contact to create a short between pins COMMON and CLOSE; valve plug will move to the upper, open
position and then to the lower, closed position.
6. For On/Off operation using single dry contact:
a. Open the contact to create an open circuit between pins COMMON and OPEN. If Span is currently uncalibrated,
valve plug will not move at this time.
b. Close the contact to create a short between pins COMMON and OPEN. If Span is currently uncalibrated, valve
plug will not move at this time.
c. Open the contact to create an open circuit between pins COMMON and OPEN; valve plug will move to the upper,
open position and then to the lower, closed position.
7. The unit is now calibrated.
Licensing
The Gen 2 easy-Drive actuator has two differing modes of operation: On/Off and Positioning. The On/Off mode is
intended for snap-acting applications where the valve is either fully open or fully closed. In this mode, the valve plug
cannot remain at any intermediate position; it will move to a fully closed or fully open position only. For applications
that require the actuator to control over the full range of motion, it is necessary to have a Positioning license installed.
A positioning license will allow access to 4-20mA positioning, 4-20mA level control and Modbus positioning.
15

Start Up
WARNING
To avoid personal injury or property damage, be aware that the valve will move and respond to an input signal during start
up.
1. Before turning on power to the unit, be sure that a closed signal is being commanded to the unit.
D DryContact: contact is open.
D L2e (Dual Dry Contact): Contact closed across pins COMMON and CLOSE.
D Analog Input: signal = 4 mA.
D Modbus: position demand = 0.
2. Turn on power to the unit.
3. Apply a change in position demand to ensure unit responds properly.
D DryContact:
D Closed contact between pins COMMON and OPEN will open the valve.
D Dual contact / L2e only: Closed contact between pins COMMON and OPEN will open the valve. Closed contact
between pins COMMON and CLOSE will close the valve.
D Analog Input: valve will respond to proportional demand.
17
Page 18
D3 Valve with Gen 2 easy-Drive Actuator
April 2022
D Modbus: valve will respond to positional demand in register 40001. 0 = fully closed and 1000 = fully open.
4. If the valve does not respond as expected, proceed to Troubleshooting guide on page 18.
5. Check conduit ports.
D Conduit seal must be in place within 450 mm (18 inches) of the enclosure.
D Unused conduit ports must be sealed with an explosionproof port plug.
6. Replace the cover and tighten all 8 bolts to 20 NSm (15 ftSlbs).
Instruction Manual
D104161X012
Troubleshooting
1. Unit does not move.
a. Verify that 12VDC to 24VDC is present on the power terminals as shown on the cover. Green heartbeat LED will
pulse near Modbus terminals when power is present.
b. Verify that all wires are firmly attached on both ends.
c. Verify that wires are connected to the correct terminals - see Wiring in the manual.
d. Verify mode of operation (on/off or positioning) matches control signal.
e. Verify mode of control (local or Modbus) matches control signal.
2. Unit does not respond to 420 mA signal
a. Verify that 12VDC to 24VDC is present on the power terminals as shown on the cover.
b. Verify that the 420 mA signal is wired correctly and that the terminals are firmly on the wires.
c. Verify mode of operation matches control signal (local control: 40067=0, positioning: 40065=1).
d. Check the value of the analog input in register 40026 to determine if it is 0 or greater.
i. If register 40026 shows 0, the 4-20 mA may be wired backwards. Swap wire and attempt again.
3. Diagnostics show a Motor Stall - Travel Deviation Fault.
a. The easyDrive electric actuator is designed to operate in a manner consistent with a pneumatic actuator. This
means that if the valve plug can not move to its commanded position, the actuator will stop, without damage,
and issue a Motor Stall - Travel Deviation Fault warning. When the command signal changes outside of the
deadband (Modbus register 40036), it will attempt to move again. Recalibrate the actuator span per instructions
in the Startup section of this manual.
4. Position on D3 is not accurate (proportional positioning units only).
a. If the position of a D3 is too high (i.e. 50% is much higher than 50% on the bonnet), check the valve type. If valve
type is D4, change to D3, cycle power, and recalibrate.
b. If the local analog input is being used (420 mA or 15 V), the analog inputs of the actuator may be calibrated to
match the input signal.
i. Command 0% (4 mA or 1 V).

Setting the Valve Flow Adjuster
The flow setting may only be adjusted if the 0.375 and 0.75 inch port sizes are installed and only when using the on/off
version.
When shipped from the factory, the actuator has the flow adjuster set at the maximum flow rate position for the given
port size.
1. Ensure the valve plug is in the seated position.
2. To change the valve flow rate, loosen the flow adjuster socket head cap screws (key 15) with a 5/32 inch Allen key,
and reposition the flow adjuster halves (key 13 and 14) to the desired flow rate position. See figure 19 for flow rate
settings.
3. Retighten the socket head screws (key 15) to 3 NSm (26 lbfSin).
4. Follow instructions for recalibration on page 10.

Maintenance
Refer to figure 22.
Valve parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of inspection
and maintenance depends on the severity of the service conditions.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing any maintenance
operations:
D Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
D Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations to avoid personal
injury.
D Disconnect any operating lines providing electric power, 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. Drain the process media from 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 The valve packing box may contain process fluids that are pressurized, even when the valve has been removed from the
pipeline. Process fluids may spray out under pressure when removing the packing hardware or packing rings.
D Check with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
WARNING
For explosionproof applications, ensure the actuator cover is properly bolted before applying power to the actuator.
Personal injury or property damage may result from fire or explosion if power is applied to the actuator with the cover
removed in a hazardous area.
Do not remove the actuator cover for 10 minutes after power is disconnected if the UPS option is installed.
For explosion‐proof applications, install rigid metal conduit and a conduit seal no more than 457 mm (18 inches) from the
transducer. Personal injury or property damage may result from explosion if the seal is not installed.
Select wiring and/or cable glands that are rated for the environment of use (such as hazardous area, ingress protection, and
temperature). Failure to use properly rated wiring and/or cable glands can result in personal injury or property damage
from fire or explosion.
Wiring connections must be in accordance with local, regional, and national codes for any given hazardous area approval.
Failure to follow the local, regional, and national codes could result in personal injury or property damage from fire or
explosion.

7. Break the bonnet nut (key 5) loose with a hammer. Continue turning the bonnet nut by using a hammer or a large
adjustable wrench, tightened around one ear of the bonnet nut. If the bonnet (key 7) is stuck in the valve, continue
to unscrew the bonnet nut. The bonnet nut will contact the spring pins (or pipe plugs) (key 6, figure 22) and jack the
bonnet out of the valve. Carefully lift the actuator assembly from the valve body.
WARNING
The spring pins/pipe plugs (key 6) must always be in place during valve operation. They provide a safeguard against injury
when the unit is being disassembled.
8. Completely remove the packing retainer (key 8) using a 1‐1/8 inch wrench.
9. Remove the valve plug by driving out the pin (key 43) and unscrewing the valve plug from the stem. Do not remove
the Belleville springs (key 9) from the stem, in order to retain the Belleville stacking orientation as shown in figure
20.
10. Use a 1‐3/16 inch socket wrench to loosen and remove the seat ring (key 2).
CAUTION
Inspect the seat ring and valve body interior for wear, erosion, or damage in the following steps.
11. Inspect the seat ring for wear or damage. If the seating surface has been damaged, discard the seat ring.
12. Visually inspect the valve body interior below the seat ring for erosion or damage. Replace the valve body if
necessary.
WARNING
Be careful to avoid damaging the seating surface on the valve plug or seat ring as damage in these areas will allow excessive
leakage at shutoff. Avoid damaging the highly polished valve stem surface. A damaged valve stem could cut the packing
and allow process fluid to leak to the atmosphere.
Cover the opening in the valve body to prevent foreign material from getting into the valve body cavity.
Trim Assembly
1. Ensure the threads of the valve stem (key 16) and valve plug (key 3) are clean and free of debris.
2. Make sure the Belleville springs (key 9) are properly installed on the valve stem, as shown in figure 21.
3. Install the valve plug on the stem and insert a new pin (key 43).
4. Lubricate the threads of the packing retainer with anti‐seize and install into the bonnet using a 1‐1/8 inch wrench.
Make sure the Belleville springs (key 9) are completely enclosed by the packing retainer as shown in figure 21.
5. Torque the packing retainer to 81 NSm (60 lbfSft). The packing retainer has been installed correctly when a
metal‐to‐metal contact has been made between the packing retainer end and the bonnet (key 7). The packing
retainer threads should be completely enclosed by the bonnet (see figure 21).
6. Thoroughly clean the seat ring (key 2) threads and the mating threads in the valve body (key 1).
7. Apply anti‐seize lubricant to the threads of the seat ring and its mating threads in the valve body.
8. Screw the seat ring into the valve body. Use a 1‐3/16 inch socket wrench to tighten the seat ring to 170 NSm
(125 lbfSft). Remove all excess lubricant after tightening.
9. Lubricate the bonnet O‐ring (key 4) with lithium grease and install on the bonnet.

Packing Maintenance
WARNING
Observe the warning at the start of the Maintenance section.
Key numbers are referenced in figure 20.
The valve stem packing can only be serviced by removing the bonnet from the valve body.
Packing Disassembly
1. Disassemble the valve per steps 1 ‐ 9 in the Trim Disassembly section of the Valve Plug and Seat Ring Maintenance
section of this manual.
2. Remove the five Belleville springs (key 9), lower packing spacer (key 12), packing set (key 11), and two
anti‐extrusion washers (key 10) from the bonnet (key 7) using a formed wire hook.
3. Clean and inspect the packing box wall to ensure that the packing surfaces are not damaged. If the surface
condition is damaged and cannot be improved by light sanding, replace the bonnet.
4. Inspect the valve stem (key 16) and valve plug (key 3) for scratches or wear and replace if necessary.
Packing Assembly
The following steps define the proper procedure for installing the packing in a D3 valve. Improper packing assembly
can lead to poor valve performance. The proper packing arrangement is shown in figures 20 and 21.
1. Ensure the upper packing spacer (key 12) is installed.
2. Use the lower packing spacer (key 12) and a tube to push the upper anti‐extrusion washer (key 10) into place. Using
the lower packing spacer in this manner will ensure the upper anti‐extrusion washer is fully seated and flat when
installed in the packing bore.
3. Remove the lower packing spacer from the packing bore.
CAUTION
All D3 packing kits include a single use packet of high performance fluorinated grease. This is the only acceptable D3
packing lubricant.
Note
In the following procedure, carefully install each packing ring individually over the valve stem and push completely into the packing
box with a non‐marring tube. A 12‐inch length of 1/2 inch PVC pipe works well for this. It is recommended that the lubricated
packing rings be installed individually rather than pushed in as a set.
4. Apply a 3 mm (1/8 inch) bead of the supplied high performance fluorinated grease (key 44) around the groove of
the female packing adaptor as shown in figure 20 and install over the valve stem (key 16).
5. Apply a 3 mm (1/8 inch) bead of the supplied high performance fluorinated grease (key 44) around the groove of
the packing ring as shown in figure 20 and install over the valve stem.

stem as shown in figure 20.
7. Firmly press all packing parts into the packing bore with a tube.
8. Install the five Belleville springs (key 9) over the valve stem as shown in figure 20.
9. Install the valve plug (key 3) on the stem and insert a new groove pin (key 43).
10. Lubricate the threads of the packing retainer with anti‐seize and install into the bonnet using a 1‐1/8 inch wrench.
Make sure the Belleville springs are completely enclosed by the packing retainer as shown in figure 21.
11. Torque the packing retainer to 68 NSm (50 lbfSft). The packing retainer has been installed correctly when a
metal‐to‐metal contact has been made between the packing retainer end and the bonnet (key 7). The packing
retainer threads should be completely enclosed by the bonnet.
12. Apply anti‐seize lubricant to the threads on the valve body and bonnet nut (key 5) and the contact surfaces of the
bonnet and bonnet nut flange. Install the bonnet and actuator assembly onto the valve body. Tighten the bonnet
nut until the nut stops turning. A few hammer blows will be required to ensure that the assembly is tight.
Stem Replacement
CAUTION
If the valve stem is replaced, the packing will also need to be replaced, since the threads on the valve stem may damage the
packing when the valve stem is removed.
1. Follow the Trim Disassembly procedures, steps 1-8 on page 22 of this manual.
2. Ensure power and signal have been isolated from the actuator. Open the explosion-proof enclosure (keys 60 and
61), using a 13 mm wrench.
3. Remove the FloPro (keys 13, 14, and 15), using a 5/32 inch hex head wrench.
4. Remove the stem nut (key 27), using an 11/16 inch wrench, noting the position of the FloPro relative to the bonnet
markings.
5. Use a rubber mallet to gently drive the stem downward through the bottom of the actuator housing and remove
the stem.
6. Ensure the packing as been removed, using procedures in the Packing Disassembly on page 24 of this manual.
7. Replace the stem by gently pushing the stem up through the actuator.
8. Replace the packing and plug, using the procedures in the Packing Assembly on page 24 of this manual.
9. Install the FloPro at the same position it was removed from in step 4. Tighten the hex socket head cap screws
to 3 N•m (26 lbf•in).
10. Tighten the stem nut (key 27) to 39 N•m (29 lbf•ft) using an 11/16 inch wrench. Be sure the FloPro is not allowed
to rotate when tightening the stem nut.
11. Apply anti‐seize lubricant to the threads on the valve body and bonnet nut (key 5) and the contact surfaces of the
bonnet and bonnet nut flange. Install the bonnet and actuator assembly onto the valve body. Tighten the bonnet
nut until the nut stops turning. A few hammer blows will be required to ensure that the assembly is tight.

A memory fault has occurred and the actuator
has been restored to factory defaults. Contact
your Emerson sales office.
The actuator is unable to move to the
commanded position and has stopped. Follow
troubleshooting guide in Help section to remedy.
The digital input has detected a closed contact
and the actuator has moved to its safe position.
Check switch input device status.
The actuator has experienced a fatal error and
shut down. Contact your Emerson sales office.
The analog values entered do not match the
analog signal level. Check analog signal value and
value entered.
The valve travel distance is outside the
acceptable range. Confirm valve type and that no
obstructions are present.
The analog values for open and close are less
than 4 mA and previous values have been
maintained. Calibrate analog input with
differential >4 mA.
Actuator was powered down during a move and
actual position may vary from commanded.
Recalibrate the valve span.
Control signal not present. Signal is <3 mA,
timeout period exceeded (40051 or 40052).
