    3. Actuator travel may be less than the value listed after connecting the actuator to the valve. Description The Fisher 657C actuators (figure 1) are long stroke, spring opposed, direct‐acting diaphragm actuators. They are ™ designed for Yarway desuperheater line of products (AT-38/48, AT-37/47, AT-18/28, and 4300 Templow ).

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) D104496X012 November 2019 Discussion of Bench Set The bench set pressure values are used to adjust the initial compression of the actuator spring with the desuperheater‐actuator assembly “on the bench.” The correct initial compression is important for the proper functioning of the desuperheater‐actuator assembly when it is put into service and the proper actuator diaphragm operating pressure is applied.
  • Page 8 7. If the measured travel matches the nameplate travel, bench set is complete. Proceed to the Installing the Stem Connector Assembly subsection. 8. If the measured travel is not exact, consider the spring free-length and spring rate tolerances may produce a slightly different bench set than specified. Contact your Emerson sales office for assistance.
  • Page 9: Installing The Stem Connector Assembly

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) D104496X012 November 2019 Installing the Stem Connector Assembly When installing the stem connector assembly (key 26), the actuator and desuperheater stem threads should engage the threads of the stem connector by the distance equal to the diameter of the stem. WARNING Install the stem connector securely before a positioner is mounted to the actuator and pressurized, using only a regulator-controlled air supply, not the positioner, to move the actuator stem.

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) November 2019 D104496X012 5. Screw the desuperheater stem locknuts up until the indicator disk contacts the bottom of the stem connector. Do not overtighten the locknuts. 6. Slowly stroke the desuperheater from fully closed to fully open and verify full rated travel is achieved. Be sure the desuperheater is in the closed position.
  • Page 11: Deadband Measurement

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) D104496X012 November 2019 Deadband Measurement Deadband is caused by packing friction, unbalanced forces, and other factors in the desuperheater assembly. Deadband is the range a measured signal can vary without initiating a response from the actuator (see figure 6). Each actuator spring has a fixed spring rate (force divided by compression).
  • Page 12: Maintenance

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) November 2019 D104496X012 1. Connect the loading pressure piping to the NPT internal connection in the top of the diaphragm casing. 2. If necessary, remove the 1/4 NPT bushing if a 1/2 NPT internal connection is needed to increase connection size. The connection can be made with either piping or tubing.
  • Page 13 Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) D104496X012 November 2019 WARNING To avoid personal injury from the precompressed spring force thrusting the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) away from the actuator, relieve spring compression (step 2), and carefully remove casing cap screws (key 22, step 4). 2.

Turn the handwheel (key 51) counter‐clockwise so that the handwheel assembly is not causing any spring compression. 2. Bypass the desuperheater, reduce loading pressure to atmospheric, and remove the tubing or piping from the upper handjack body (key 142).

    Instruction Manual 657C Actuator (40i, 46i, and 60i) November 2019 D104496X012 CAUTION Over‐tightening the diaphragm casing cap screws and nuts (keys 22 and 23, figure 7) can damage the diaphragm. Do not exceed 27 NSm (20 lbfSft) torque. Note Do not use lubricant on these bolts and nuts. Fasteners must be clean and dry. 8.
