1. These values also apply to the 657-4 actuator construction.
2. Actuator travel may be less than the value listed after connecting the actuator to the valve.
3. Maximum travel for 657-4 is 102 mm (4 inches).
4. Normal operating diaphragm pressure must not exceed maximum diaphragm casing pressure and must not produce a force on the actuator stem greater than the maximum allowable out
put thrust or the maximum allowable valve stem load. Contact your Emerson Process Management sales office with questions concerning maximum allowable valve stem load.
5. This maximum casing pressure is not to be used for normal operating pressure. Its purpose is to allow for typical regulator supply settings and/or relief valve tolerances.
Description
The 657 actuator (figure 1) and the 657-4 actuator are direct-acting, spring-opposed diaphragm actuators. They
provide automatic operation of control valve body assemblies. The 657 actuator offers 76 mm (3 inches) maximum
actuator travel. The 657-4 actuator provides 102 mm (4 inches) maximum actuator travel. Both actuators position the
valve plug in response to varying pneumatic loading pressure on the actuator diaphragm. Figure 2 shows the
operation of these actuators.
A 657 or 657-4 actuator can be equipped with either a top-mounted or a side-mounted handwheel assembly. A
top-mounted handwheel assembly is used as an adjustable up travel stop to limit actuator travel in the up direction
(see figure 2). A side-mounted handwheel assembly is usually used as an auxiliary manual actuator. Adjustable
casing-mounted up or down travel stops are also available for this actuator.
Note
If repeated or daily manual operation is expected, the actuator should be equipped with a side-mounted handwheel rather than a
casing-mounted travel stop or top-mounted handwheel.
The side-mounted handwheel is designed for more frequent use as a manual operator.
Specifications
Refer to table 1 for Specifications of the 657 and 657-4 actuators. See the actuator nameplate for specific information
about your actuator.

Installation
Key number locations are shown in figures 6, 7, and 8, unless otherwise indicated. Also, refer to figure 3 for location of
parts.
WARNING
Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any installation operations to avoid personal
injury.
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.
CAUTION
To avoid parts damage, do not use an operating pressure that exceeds the Maximum Diaphragm Casing Pressure (table 1)
or produces a force on the actuator stem greater than the Maximum Allowable Output Thrust (table 1) or the maximum

allowable valve stem load. (Contact your Emerson Process Management sales office with questions concerning maximum
allowable valve stem load.)
DValve/Actuator Assembly: If the actuator and valve are shipped together as a control valve assembly, it has been
adjusted at the factory, and may be installed in the pipeline. After installing the valve in the pipeline, refer to the
Loading Connection procedures.
DActuator Mounting: If the actuator is shipped separately or the actuator has been removed from the valve, it is
necessary to mount the actuator on the valve before placing the valve in the pipeline. Refer to the actuator
mounting procedures before placing the valve in service. You may perform the Bench Set Spring Adjustment
procedures in this section to confirm that the adjustment has not changed since it was shipped from the factory.
DPositioner: If a positioner is installed, or is to be installed on the actuator, refer to the positioner instruction manual
for installation. During the adjustment procedures, it will be necessary to provide a temporary loading pressure to
the actuator diaphragm.
Mounting the Actuator on the Valve
The 657 actuator spring loading pushes the actuator stem up towards the actuator diaphragm (see figure 2). This
spring action moves the stem away from the valve while installing the actuator.
CAUTION
If the valve stem is allowed to remain in the up position (towards the actuator) during mounting, it can interfere with the
actuator mounting, possibly damage valve stem threads or bend the valve stem. Be sure the valve stem is pushed down
(into the valve body), away from the actuator while mounting.
Provide a temporary method of applying diaphragm loading pressure to the diaphragm to extend the actuator stem
during bench set spring adjustments.
1. Provide a vise or some other method of supporting the valveandtheweightoftheactuatorduringassembly.For
direct or reverse acting valves, push the valve stem down away from the actuator while mounting the actuator.
2. Screw the stem locknuts all the way onto the valve stem. With the concave side of the travel indicator disk (key 14)
facing the valve, install the travel indicator disk on the valve stem. (Note: The travel indicator disk is not used with
size 87 actuators.)
3. Lift or hoist the actuator onto the valve bonnet:
a. For size 87 actuators, insert the cap screws and tighten the hex nuts, securing the actuator to the bonnet.
b. Forallothersizeactuators,screw the yoke locknut onto the valve bonnet and tighten the locknut. (Note: On
small size actuators, it may be necessary to remove the indicator disk and re-install it while lowering the actuator
on to the valve because the disk will not go through the actuator yoke opening.)
4. Do not connect the actuator stem to the valve stem at this time. Whenever the actuator is installed on the valve, it
is recommended to perform the Bench Set Spring Adjustment procedure to verify that the actuator is still adjusted
correctly.

Discussion of Bench Set
The bench set pressure values are used to adjust the initial compression of the actuator spring with the valve-actuator
assembly “on the bench.” The correct initial compression is important for the proper functioning of the valve-actuator
assembly when it is put into service and the proper actuator diaphragm operating pressure is applied.
The bench set values are established with the assumption that there is no packing friction. When attempting to adjust
the spring in the field, it is very difficult to ensure that there is no friction being applied by “loose” packing.
Accurate adjustment to the bench set range can be made during the actuator mounting process by making the
adjustment before the actuator is connected to the valve (see the Spring Verification procedure).

Spring Verification
Ensure that the actuator stem is at the top of its travel as shown in figure 4 and not connected to the valve. (Note:
Some spring compression is required to move the diaphragm to the top of its travel.) The steps provided are the same
for push-down-to-close (direct acting) or push-down-to-open (reverse acting) valves.
WARNING
When moving the actuator stem with diaphragm loading pressure, use caution to keep hands and tools out of the actuator
stem travel path. Personal injury and/or property damage is possible if something is caught between the actuator stem and
other control valve assembly parts.
Also, provide a certified pressure gauge suitable to accurately read the diaphragm pressure from 0 through 0.3 bar (5
psig) above the upper operating range pressure marked on the nameplate. Apply loading pressure to the diaphragm.
CAUTION
Stroke the actuator a few times to ensure that the pressure gauge is working correctly, and that the actuator is functioning
properly. To prevent actuator damage, it is important to ensure that the actuator stem is stroking smoothly and not
exhibiting binding or excessive friction. Binding or excessive friction could be an indicator of incorrect assembly or
damaged parts.

1. If not already accomplished, provide a temporary means of applying an adjustable loading pressure to the actuator
during bench set adjustments.
2. Set the diaphragm loading pressure at 0 bar (0 psig). Then, slowly raise the pressure towards the lower bench set
pressure, as indicated on the nameplate, while checking for the first linear movement of the actuator stem. The
actuator stem should show movement at the lower bench set pressure. If movement occurs before or after the
lowerpressureisreached,adjustthespringadjuster(seefigure4)intooroutoftheyokeuntiltheactuatorstem's
movement is first detected at the lower bench set pressure.
Note
Before turning the spring adjuster on size 70 or 87 actuators, assemble the stem connector around the actuator stem and the
anti-rotating lug on the yoke. Mark the actuator stem as a visual reference to verify that stem rotation does not occur. Remove the
stem connector before rechecking the bench set.
3. Be sure the spring adjuster is adjusted to meet the requirements of step 2 above.
4. Apply the upper bench set pressure, as indicated on the nameplate. This pressure extends the actuator stem down
towards the valve. (Note: The actuator stem may slide over the valve stem as shown in figure 4.) At the end of the
actuator stem, use a marker or a piece of tape to mark the valve stem (see figure 4). (Note: If the actuator stem
does not pass over the valve stem, provide a method to mark this point of stem travel.)
5. Slowly decrease the diaphragm loading pressure to the lower bench set pressure, as indicated on the nameplate.
6. Measure the distance between the marker or tape on the valve stem to the end of the actuator stem. The distance
should match the rated travel indicated on the nameplate.
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 Process Management sales office for assistance.
Installing the Stem Connector Assembly
When installing the stem connector assembly (key 26), theactuatorandvalvestemthreadsshouldengagethe
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.
To avoid personal injury or property damage, keep hands and tools out of the actuator stem travel path while applying
loading pressure to move the actuator stem in the following steps.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the seating surfaces, do not rotate the valve plug while it is seated. Exercise care while installing the
stem connector assembly to avoid damage to the valve plug stem and valve stem threads.

Note
Replacement stem connectors are an assembly of two stem connector halves, cap screws, and a spacer between the connector
halves. Remove the spacer and discard, if present, before clamping the actuator and valve stems together. Use only a mated pair
of stem connector halves.
1. If necessary, push the valve stem down so that it is touching the seat ring on direct acting valves. For reverse acting
valves, push the stem down to the open position.
If necessary, screw the valve stem locknuts down, away from the connector location. For all actuators except size 87,
ensure that the travel indicator disk (key 14) is located on top of the locknuts.
2. Slowly increase the diaphragm pressure to the upper bench set pressure. This should be the same pressure used in
the Spring Verification steps, and it is marked on the nameplate.
3. Place the stem connector half with the threaded holes, approximately half way between the actuator and valve
stems, and align with the stem connector. A slight change to loading pressure may be necessary to align the
threads. Refer to figures 6, 7, and 8 to help locate the connector position.
CAUTION
Incomplete engagement of either the valve stem or actuator stem in the stem connector can result in stripped threads or
improper operation. Be sure that the length of each stem clamped in the stem connector is equal to or greater than one
diameter of that stem. Damage to threads on either stem or in the stem connector can cause the parts to be replaced
prematurely. Do not loosen the cap screws when the stem connector has spring or loading pressure force applied.
4. Install the other half of the stem connector and insert the cap screws and tighten them while ensuring even spacing
between the stem connector halves on all sides. If installing a positioner, also attach the feedback bracket at the
same time.
CAUTION
Over-tightening the valve stem locknuts can make disassembly difficult.
5. Screw the valve stem locknuts up against the stem connector for the size 87 actuator. For all other actuator sizes,
screw the valve stem locknuts up until the indicator disk contacts the bottom of the stem connector. Do not
overtighten the locknuts.
6. Slowly stroke the valve from fully open to fully closed and verify full rated travel is achieved.
Be sure that the valve is in the closed position. Loosen the screws on the travel indicator scale (key 18), and align it with
the travel indicator disk (key 14) or stem connector for the size 87 actuator. Stroke the valve full travel to ensure that
the travel matches the rated travel on the nameplate. If valve travel is not correct, repeat the stem connector
procedure.
Friction Discussion
If you are attempting to adjust the bench set after the actuator is connected to the valve and the packing tightened,
you must take friction into account. Make the spring adjustment so full actuator travel occurs at the bench set values

(a) plus the friction force divided by the effective diaphragm area with increasing diaphragm pressure or (b) minus the
friction force divided by the effective diaphragm area with decreasing diaphragm pressure.
If the stem connector assembly has been installed, the valve friction may be determined by the following procedure:
1. Install a pressure gauge in the actuator loading pressure line that connects to the actuator diaphragm casing.
Note
Steps 2 and 4 require that you read and record the pressure shown on the pressure gauge.
2. Increase the actuator diaphragm pressure and read the diaphragm pressure as the actuator reaches a travel
position in the rated travel of the valve that does not contact a travel stop. Make a reference mark on the travel
indicator scale using tape or some other method at this point.
3. Increase the actuator diaphragm pressure until the actuator is at a travel position greater than the position
referenced in step 2 using the reference point to identify first movement.
4. Decrease the actuator diaphragm pressure and read the diaphragm pressure as the actuator returns to the position
referenced in step 2.
The difference between the two diaphragm pressure readings is the change in the diaphragm pressure required to
overcome the friction forces in the two directions of travel.
5. Calculate the actual friction force:

Refer to table 1 for the effective diaphragm area.
It is difficult to rotate the spring adjustor (key 74, figures 6, 7, and 8) when the full actuator loading pressure is applied
to the actuator. Release the actuator loading pressure before adjusting. Then re-apply loading pressure to check the
adjustment.
Note
For push-down-to-close valves, the valve plug seat is the limit for downward travel and the actuator up-stop is the limit for upward
(away from the valve) movement. For push-down-to-open valves, the actuator down stop is the limit for downward movement,
and the valve seat is the limit for upward (away from the valve) movement.
Deadband Measurement
Deadband is caused by packing friction, unbalanced forces, and other factors in the control valve assembly. Deadband
is the range a measured signal can vary without initiating a response from the actuator (see figure 5). Each actuator
spring has a fixed spring rate (force divided by compression). You have verified that the right spring was installed in the
actuator by completing the Spring Verification steps.
Deadband is one factor that affects the control valve assembly operation during automatic loop control. The control
loop tolerance for deadband varies widely depending on the loop response. Some common symptoms of the

deadband being too wide are no movement, a “jump” movement, or oscillating movements of the actuator during
automatic loop control. The following steps are provided to determine the span of deadband. The percent of
deadband is helpful in troubleshooting problems with the process control loop.
1. Start at a pressure near the lower bench set pressure, slowly increase pressure until the valve is approximately at
mid-travel. Note this pressure reading.
2. Slowly decrease pressure until movement of the valvestemisdetected,andnotethispressure.
3. The difference between these two pressures is deadband, in psi.

Loading Connection
The loading pressure connections are made at the factory if the valve, actuator, and positioner come as a unit. Keep
the length of tubing or piping as short as possible to avoid transmission lag in the control signal. If a volume booster,
valve positioner or other accessory is used, be sure that it is properly connected to the actuator. Refer to the positioner
instruction manual or other manuals as necessary.
For actuators shipped separately or whenever the actuator pressure connections are installed, use the following steps:
1. Connect the loading pressure piping to the NPT internal connection in the top of the diaphragm casing.
2. For sizes 70 and 87 actuators, 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.
3. Cycle the actuator several times to be sure that the valve stem travel is correct when the correct pressure ranges are
applied to the diaphragm.
WARNING
If valve stem travel appears to be incorrect, refer to the Bench Set Spring Adjustment procedures at the beginning of this
section. To avoid personal injury or product damage, do not place the valve into service if it is not reacting correctly to
diaphragm loading pressure changes.

Maintenance
Actuator parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced when necessary. The frequency of
inspection and replacement depends on the severity of service conditions.
WARNING
Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing
any maintenance operations:
DDo not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
DAlways wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations to avoid personal
injury.
DDisconnect any operating lines providing air pressure, electric power, or a control signal to the actuator. Be sure the
actuator cannot suddenly open or close the valve.
DUse bypass valves or completely shut off the process to isolate the valve from process pressure. Relieve process pressure
from both sides of the valve. Drain the process media from both sides of the valve.
DVent the power actuator loading pressure and relieve any actuator spring precompression.
DUse lock-out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
DThe 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, or when
loosening the packing box pipe plug.
DCheck with your process or safety engineer for any additional measures that must be taken to protect against process
media.
Actuator Maintenance
This procedure describes how the actuator can be completely disassembled and assembled. When inspection or
repairs are required, disassemble only those parts necessary to accomplish the job; then, start the assembly at the
appropriate step.
Key numbers refer to figures 6, 7, or 8 unless otherwise indicated. Figure 6 shows the sizes 30 through 60 actuators,
figure 7 illustrates the sizes 70 actuator, and figure 8 shows the size 87 actuator.
Actuator Disassembly
1. Bypass the control valve. Reduce the loading pressure to atmospheric, and remove the tubing or piping from the
upper diaphragm casing (key 1).
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, below), and carefully remove casing cap screws (key 22) (step 4, below).
2. Thread the spring adjuster (key 12) out of the yoke (key 9) until all spring compression is relieved.
3. If required, remove the actuator from the valve body by separating the stem connector (key 26) and removing the
yoke locknut or, for the size 87 actuator, the stud bolt nuts. Separate the stem connector by loosening the stem
nuts (keys 15 and 16) and unscrewing the two cap screws.

Top-Mounted Handwheel Assembly
A top-mounted handwheel assembly (figures 9 and 10) is usually used as an adjustable casing-mounted up travel stop
to limit full retraction of the actuator stem. Turning the handwheel clockwise moves the the handwheel stem (key
133, figures 9 and 10) down, compressing the spring.
Instructions are given below for complete disassembly and assembly of the top-mounted handwheel assembly.
Perform the disassembly only as far as necessary to accomplish the required maintenance; then, begin the assembly at
the appropriate step.
Key numbers refer to figure 9 (sizes 30 through 60) and figure 10 (sizes 70 and 87), unless otherwise indicated.
Disassembly for Top-Mounted Handwheel
1. Turn the handwheel (key 51) counter-clockwise so that the handwheel assembly is not causing any spring
compression.
2. Bypass the control valve, reduce loading pressure to atmospheric, and remove the tubing or piping from the upper
handjack body (key 142, figures 9 or 10).
WARNING
To avoid personal injury from the precompressed spring force thrusting the upper diaphragm casing (key 1) away from the
actuator, thread the spring adjuster (key 12) out of the yoke until all spring compression is relieved, then carefully remove
casing cap screws (key 22).
3. Remove the diaphragm casing cap screws and nuts (keys 22 and 23, figures 6, 7, or 8), and lift off the upper
diaphragm casing and handwheel assembly.
4. If necessary, the handwheel assembly can be separated from the diaphragm casing by removing the cap screws
(key 141). This may be necessary to replace the O-ring (key 139), or for ease of handling.
