Calibrating a Fisher™ 3582 Positioner - Beam Alignment

Learn about proper calibration and beam alignment procedures for the Fisher 3582 pneumatic positioner.
Steps include:
1. Turn the nozzle all the way in and then out four complete turns.
2. Set the input signal to the middle of its range.
3. Move the flapper assembly over the cam and adjust the flapper assembly screw to align the feedback arms.
4. Turn flapper assembly from direct 10 to reverse 10 to align arms using bellows pin and beam pivot pin.

Thank You for these videos. I'm currently preparing for Trade Test, and the Fisher Valve has been giving me hell 🤣. Since watching these videos, everything is going smooth. Thank you so much!

great video... glad to see that fisher is still making stuff.... great for steam and hot water headers... thanks...😍 so many others brands have just gone away

Hello.thank you for video. I have a question.
Do we have to only use Cam A for beam alignment or we use other Cam (A or C) for beam alignment?

Jim Thanks Alot

Excelente explicacion, Felicidades y muchas gracias

Great video! Question ... if you want to do a beam alignment but your positioner is out of calibration, would you perform step two to the mid range value of your current calibration as opposed to 9 psi? For example if my positioner was supposed to be 3-15 but it saturated at 14 (3-14) would I set step 2 at 8.5, perform the beam alignment, then adjust my zero & span to 3-15?

[@FisherControlValve]

The reason for beam alignment is to ensure that the nozzle and flapper alignment is correct and that they meet each other squarely. Calibration of the endpoints (zero and span) will always be required after a beam alignment. An out of calibration condition prior to completing the beam alignment does not change the beam alignment process. No matter the condition, the midrange value for the desired range is used. (9psi for 3-15psig)

awesome

[@geraldmaschmann5576]

Do I set the mid-point of the beam alignment to 6 psi for calibrating to a 3-9 split range? Or do I stick with the standard beam alignment midpoint of 9 psi regardless of the my final calibration span?

[@FisherControlValve]

Gerald, The Beam Alignment should be done with input signal value at midrange. For 3-9 psi split range, the midrange signal is 6 psi.
