Hazardous Area Classifications And Special - Emerson Fisher 3582i Instruction Manual

3582, 582i, and 3583
January 2013
Note
All valve positioners and valve stem position transmitters are shipped with foam rubber packing material inside the case. Remove
the cover (key 33, figure 21) 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 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.

These Special Instructions for "Safe Use" and Installation in Hazardous Locations also apply to 3582i positioners.
Certain nameplates may carry more than one approval, and each approval may have unique installation/wiring

override, the standard installation procedures. Special instructions are listed by approval.

This information supplements the nameplate markings affixed to the product.
Always refer to the nameplate itself to identify the appropriate certification. Contact your Emerson Process Management sales
