Do not install, operate, or maintain a 2052 actuator without being fully trained and qualified in valve, actuator, and accessory installation, operation, and maintenance. To avoid personal injury or property damage, it is important to carefully read, understand, and follow all the contents of this manual, including all safety cautions and warnings. If you have any questions about these instructions, contact your Emerson sales office before proceeding.

Description

2052 spring‐and‐diaphragm rotary actuators are used on rotary‐shaft valve bodies for throttling or on‐off applications. 2052 may be used for on‐off service without a positioner, or it may be used for throttling service with a positioner, depending on service conditions. 2052 has an ISO 5211 mating interface that allows installation to non‐Fisher valves. Refer to separate bulletins for valve and positioner information.
A top-mounted handwheel option is available for infrequent service as a manual actuator. For repeated or daily manual operation, the unit should be equipped with a side-mounted declutch-able 1078 manual actuator. Externally adjustable travel stops are used to limit the degree of rotation at both ends of the actuator stroke.
The lever for the 2052 actuator is supported by bushings. The lever may be changed to accommodate valve bodies with different size valve shafts.

Installation

WARNING

  • Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any installation operations.
    Check with your process or safety engineer for any other hazards that may be present from exposure to process media. If installing into an existing application, also refer to the WARNING at the beginning of the Maintenance section in this instruction manual.

  • To avoid personal injury and parts damage, do not apply pressure that exceeds the Maximum Diaphragm Casing Pressure in table 1. Use pressure‐limiting or pressure‐relieving devices to prevent the Operating Pressure from exceeding the values shown in table 3.

The actuator, as it comes from the factory, is normally mounted on a valve body. If the actuator is shipped separately or if it is necessary to mount the actuator on the valve, perform the procedures presented in the Actuator Mounting section. Follow the procedures given in the valve instruction manual when installing the control valve in the pipeline.

If a positioner is ordered with the actuator, the pressure connection to the actuator is normally made at the factory. If it is necessary to make this connection, run tubing of the appropriate size for the diaphragm casing pressure connection (reference table 5) between the pressure connection and the instrument. Keep the length of tubing or pipe as short as possible to avoid transmission lag in the control signal.

When the control valve is completely installed and connected to the controlling instrument, check to make sure that the action is correct (air‐to‐open or air‐to‐close) and that the controlling instrument is properly configured for the desired action. For successful operation, the diaphragm rod assembly, lever, and valve shaft must move freely in response to changes in the loading pressure on the diaphragm.

Actuator Mounting

WARNING

Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing any maintenance operations:

  • Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
  • Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations.
  • Disconnect 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.
  • Use 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.
  • Safely vent the power actuator loading pressure.
  • Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
  • 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.
  • Check with your process or safety engineer for any hazards that may be present from exposure to process media.

Use the following steps to mount the actuator or to change actuator mounting style or position.
Unless otherwise specified, key numbers referenced in the following procedures are shown in figure 7 for the 2052 actuator.
If the Actuator is mounted on a valve body and it is necessary to change mounting style or position, the actuator must first be separated from the valve body.

  1. Isolate the valve body from the process. Release process pressure and vent all actuator pressure.

  2. Remove the cover or plug (key 2).
    WARNING To avoid personal injury and equipment damage from moving parts, keep fingers and tools clear while stroking the actuator with the cover removed.

  3. Loosen the cap screw (key 15).

  4. Separate the actuator from the valve body by removing the cap screws and nuts which secure the valve to the mounting yoke (key 27). Proceed to step 5.
    If the actuator is not mounted on a valve body ensure the up and down travel stops (see figure 3) are adjusted correctly to achieve the desired actuator rotation. Use the travel indicator (key 21) and travel scale (key 19) as references.
    Note: Once each travel stop is properly positioned, adequately tighten the hex nut (key 24) to lock the travel stop in place.

  5. Refer to figure 2 and table 4 for available mounting styles and positions. The actuator is normally positioned vertically with the valve in a horizontal pipeline.

  6. Determine whether the actuator mounting yoke (key 27) will be mounted on the end plate assembly (key 3) side or on the actuator housing boss side of the actuator. If the desired mounting position and style require moving the mounting yoke (key 27) and travel indicator components to opposite sides of the actuator, remove the machine screws (keys 20 and 22), the travel indicator scale (key 19), and the travel indicator (key 21). Remove the cap screws (key 28) and the mounting yoke (key 27). Install the mounting yoke in the desired position (on the end plate assembly or on the actuator housing boss). Tighten the mounting cap screws to the torque specified in table 6. Install the travel indicator components on the opposite side of the actuator.
    WARNING To avoid personal injury or property damage, ensure the travel indicator is installed correctly to coincide with the desired actuator action. Refer to figure 3 for more information. Fisher 2052 Diaphragm Rotary
Actuator-fig-2

  7. Before sliding the valve shaft into the lever, position the valve ball or disk as follows:

    • For push‐down‐to‐close action, the valve ball or disk should be in the fully open position.
    • For push‐down‐to‐open action, the valve ball or disk should be in the fully closed position (see the valve body instruction manual).
  8. Make sure that the index markings on the valve shaft are properly aligned with either the markings on the lever or the travel indicator scale mounting holes. Slide the valve shaft into the lever. (See figure 4 for one possible orientation.) Install the valve mounting cap screws and nuts. Tighten to the torque value given in the appropriate valve body instruction manual.

  9. Ensure all end play in the valve shaft is removed by directing the valve shaft and control element toward the actuator as much as possible.

  10. Tighten the socket head cap screw (key 15) which compresses the splined lever connection to the valve shaft (see table 6). Install the cover or plug (key 2) into the access hole in the housing.
    NOTICE

    • When adjusting the travel stop for the closed position of the valve ball or disk, refer to the appropriate valve instruction manual for detailed procedures. Undertravel or overtravel at the closed position may result in poor valve performance and/or damage to the equipment.
    • Over-rotation of the lever could result in the diaphragm stroking to the point where the diaphragm seals off against the air signal connection. This could prevent an air signal from being able to stroke the valve.
  11. Adjust the up travel stop (see figure 3) so that the valve ball or disk is in the desired position. When adjusting the up travel stop, ensure the stop is not backed out too far, causing the lever to over-rotate. Over-rotation of the lever may cause damage to valve components. Avoid over-rotation by adjusting the up travel stop so that the travel indicator screws (key 22) align with the travel scale screws (key 20). See figure 3.

  12. Stroke the actuator and adjust the down travel stop so that the valve ball or disk is in the desired position.
    Note: Once each travel stop is properly positioned, adequately tighten the hex nut (key 24) to lock the travel stop in place.

  13. Make sure that the travel indicator pointer matches the ball or disk position. Remove and install in the proper position if necessary.

  14. Refer to the table of contents for accessory installation procedures.

Maintenance

Actuator parts are subject to normal wear and must be inspected and replaced as necessary. The frequency of inspection and replacement depends upon the severity of service conditions. Instructions are given below for disassembly and assembly of parts. Key numbers referenced in the following steps are shown in figure 7 for the 2052, except as listed below or otherwise specified in the procedures.

WARNING

Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing any maintenance operations:

  • Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
  • Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations.
  • Disconnect 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.
  • Use 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.
  • Safely vent the power actuator loading pressure.
  • Use lock‐out procedures to be sure that the above measures stay in effect while you work on the equipment.
  • Check with your process or safety engineer for any hazards that may be present from exposure to process media.

Replacing Diaphragm

Isolate the valve body from the process. Release process pressure and vent all actuator pressure.

Disassembly

  1. Remove the supply tubing or pipe from the top casing assembly (key 5).
    WARNING: To avoid personal injury from pre-compressed spring force suddenly thrusting parts away from the actuator, spring compression must first be relieved. Closely follow the instructions below.
    Figure 4. Orientation of the Fisher 2052 Actuator Lever into the Housing and Aligning the Actuator to the Valve Shaft Markings

  2. Loosen, but do not remove, all casing cap screws and hex nuts (keys 8 and 9). Ensure there is no spring force to the top casing assembly (key 5). If spring force is detected against the top casing assembly, ensure the up-travel stop cap screw (key 23) is adjusted correctly to prevent over-rotation of the lever (key 14). Refer to figure 3. The travel indicator screws (key 22) in the end of the lever should be in alignment with the travel scale screws (key 20). If the up travel stop is confirmed to be adjusted correctly and force is still detected against the top casing assembly, contact your local Emerson Instrument and Valves Service Center. Alternatively, replace two oppositely located casing cap screws (key 8) with 100 mm (4 inch) long fully threaded M10 cap screws of ISO 898-1 Property Class 8.8 material or equivalent. Loosen the nuts (key 9) on the two fasteners in an equivalent manner to relieve spring force.

  3. Carefully remove all cap screws and hex nuts (keys 8 and 9) from the top casing assembly. The spring forces are retained by the diaphragm rod assembly (key 10), allowing quick removal of the pressure-retaining components.

  4. Remove the top casing assembly and the diaphragm (key 11).

  5. Inspect the diaphragm plate (key 6). If the diaphragm plate is damaged or if further disassembly of the actuator is required, proceed to the Replacing Diaphragm Plate, Diaphragm Rod Assembly, and Spring(s) procedure.

  6. Inspect the diaphragm and replace if necessary.

Assembly

  1. Place the diaphragm (key 11) on the diaphragm plate (key 6), making certain that it is properly centered.
  2. Observe the correct position of the loading connection fitting and install the top casing assembly (key 5). Replace the cap screws and nuts (keys 8 and 9) which secure the top casing assembly to the actuator housing. Tighten the nuts in an alternating fashion (see table 6).
  3. Install the inlet piping to the top casing assembly.

  2. Refer to assembly step 2 in the previous section on Changing or Replacing Actuator Lever.
  3. Refer to the positioner instruction manual for setup and calibration procedures.

Top‐Mounted Handwheel (All Sizes)

  • Key numbers used in this procedure are shown in figure 9 (Size 1 and Size 2) and figure 10 (Size 3) except where indicated.
  • The optional top‐mounted handwheel can be used as a manual actuator for intermittent service. It is not to be used as an adjustable travel stop. This is built into the housing.
  • The handwheel assembly is welded to a special top casing assembly (key 5, figure 9 and figure 10). A hex nut (key 43) locks the handwheel in position. For field installation of a handwheel, the special upper diaphragm casing is supplied with the handwheel.
  • Turning the handwheel (key 32) clockwise into the upper casing forces the pusher plate (key 36) against the diaphragm and diaphragm plate (keys 11 and 6, figure 7) to compress the inner and outer springs (keys 12 and 13, figure 7) and move the diaphragm rod assembly downward. Turning the handwheel counter‐clockwise allows the actuator spring(s) to move the diaphragm rod assembly upward.

NOTICE: Damage to the handwheel screw can occur if the handwheel is over- rotated in the counter-clockwise direction. The handwheel should not continue to be rotated once the actuator reaches the up stop and resistance to turning the handwheel significantly drops.

Disassembly

WARNING To avoid personal injury from the pre-compressed spring force thrusting the upper diaphragm casing away from the actuator, fully turn the handwheel counterclockwise.

  1. Perform steps 1 through 6 of the Replacing Diaphragm procedure.
  2. Remove the cotter pin, hex nut, handwheel, and locknut (keys 34, 33, 32, and 43). Unscrew the stem (key 35) out through the actuator end of the handwheel body (key 5). Size 3 also requires the removal of the spacer (key 42).
  3. Check the condition of the O‐ring (key 44); replace if necessary.
  4. For Size 1 and Size 2, If it is necessary to remove the pusher plate or spacer (key 36 or 42), drive out the groove pin (key 37).
  5. For Size 3, remove cap screw (key 59) if the pusher plate or thrust bearing needs to be removed.

Assembly (Size 1 and Size 2)

  1. Before assembling, lubricate the thread of the stem (key 35) with anti‐seize lubricant. Lubricate the bearing surfaces of the stem and rounded end with lithium grease.

  2. If the pusher plate or spacer was removed, attach them to the stem and drive in a new groove pin (key 37).

  3. With the O‐ring (key 44) in place, thread the stem into the handwheel assembly.

  4. Install the locknut, handwheel, hex nut, and cotter pin (keys 43, 32, 33, and 34).
    Note: Be sure to install the handwheel so that the arrow of operation on the top side coincides with the action of the actuator, as stated on the nameplate. (The arrow should point clockwise for PDTO. The arrow should point counter-clockwise for PDTC.)

  5. Install the top casing assembly, making certain the warning tag is in place on the casing flange.

Assembly (Size 3)

  1. Before assembling, lubricate the thread and bearing surfaces of the handwheel screw (key 35) with grease (key 60).
  2. If the pusher plate was removed, lubricate thrust bearing (key 56) and thrust bearing races (key 55) with grease (key
  1. and place inside top of pusher plate (key 36).
  1. Insert the bottom of handwheel screw (key 35) through the pusher plate, thrust bearing, and thrust bearings races. Apply thread sealant (key 59) to screw (58) to capture the pusher plate onto the end of the handwheel screw.

  2. Lubricate o-ring (key 44) with grease (key 60) and install into top casing assembly.

  3. With the O‐ring (key 44) in place, thread the stem into the handwheel assembly.

  4. Install the locknut, handwheel, hex nut, spacer, and cotter pin (keys 43, 32, 33, 42, and 34).
    Note: Be sure to install the handwheel so that the arrow of operation on the top side coincides with the action of the actuator, as stated on the nameplate. (The arrow should point clockwise for PDTO. The arrow should point counter-clockwise for PDTC.)

  5. Install the top casing assembly, making certain the warning tag is in place on the casing flange

Locking Mechanism

Refer to figures 5 or 6 for the appropriate size locking mechanism when installing or planning to operate the device.

WARNING

Avoid personal injury or property damage from sudden release of process pressure or bursting of parts. Before performing any maintenance operations:

  • Do not remove the actuator from the valve while the valve is still pressurized.
  • Always wear protective gloves, clothing, and eyewear when performing any maintenance operations.
  • Disconnect 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.
  • Use 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.
  • Safely vent the power actuator loading pressure.
  • Check with your process or safety engineer for any hazards that may be present from exposure to process media.

Installing the Size 1 Locking Mechanism

To add the locking mechanism (figure 5) to an existing actuator, purchase the required kit from Emerson.

  1. Ensure the diaphragm rod assembly (key 10) is in the upward position and the lever (key 14) is against the up travel stop (spring fail position).
  2. Thread the supplied jam nut (key 40) all the way onto the threaded bolt portion of the mounting plate assembly.
  3. Loosen the down travel stop hex nut (key 24) and remove the travel stop cap screw (key 23).
  4. Remove the vent screen (key 47) from the threaded hole in the bottom of the actuator housing.
  5. Secure the locking plate (key 39) to the bottom of the housing assembly by reinstalling the down travel stop (key
  1. and hex nut (key 24). Ensure the clearance hole in the locking plate is aligned with the threaded hole in the bottom of the housing.
  1. Ensure the down travel stop is adjusted correctly to achieve the desired actuator rotational output.
  2. Install the mounting plate assembly (key 38) by inserting it through the clearance hole in the locking plate and threading it into the hole in the actuator housing.

Operating the Locking Mechanism (Size 1)

To Lock the Actuator

  1. Screw the mounting plate assembly into the housing until it contacts the actuator lever.
  2. Align the hole in the locking plate (key 39) with one of the holes in the disk of the mounting plate assembly.
  3. Tighten the jam nut (key 40) against the locking plate.
  4. Insert a padlock (not furnished by Emerson) to prevent the mounting plate assembly from rotating.

To Unlock the Actuator

  1. Remove the padlock. Loosen the jam nut (key 40), and unscrew the threaded bolt until it no longer protrudes inside the housing.
    Note: Ensure the mounting plate assembly bolt is unthreaded far enough that the actuator lever will not contact the bolt during normal actuator operation.

  2. If the mounting plate assembly is to be left partially threaded into the housing, lock it with the jam nut (key 40) so that it cannot be screwed further into the housing and interfere with normal actuator operation.

Actuator-fig-5 Installing the Size 2 and 3 Locking Mechanism

To add the locking mechanism (figure 6) to an existing actuator, purchase the required kit from Emerson. Verify the current lever is compatible before ordering kits or parts.

  1. The actuator should be mounted to the valve body and both travel stops (key 23) properly positioned prior to installing the locking mechanism.

  2. Ensure the actuator lever (key 14) is in the spring-fail position (against the up travel stop).

  3. Assemble the lockout kit by positioning the locking shaft (key 50) within the center through-hole of the mounting plate (key 51), as shown in figure 6. Insert the locking pin (key 52) through the center pinhole of the mounting plate and through the pin hole in the locking shaft. Install the hairpin cotter pin (key 54) for retention.

  4. If installing the lockout kit on an existing actuator, remove the travel indicator (key 21) and travel indicator scale
    (key 19) from the actuator by loosening the appropriate screws.

  5. Position the lockout kit against the actuator outboard end. The locking shaft will insert and engage the lever end geometry.
    Size 2 actuator: The standard size 2 lockout kit orientation shown in figure 6 will accommodate the use of window-mount and end-mount digital valve controllers, positioners, and accessories. This orientation requires removal of the locking pin in the direction of the bottom side of the actuator.
    Size 3 actuator: For the window-mounted DVC6200 digital valve controller, the size 3 lockout kit should be oriented such that locking pin removal is in the direction of the bottom side of the actuator. This mounting plate position provides necessary clearance with the integral supply pressure regulator. For the end-mount digital valve controller or accessory option, the size 3 lockout kit should be oriented as shown in the inset picture of figure 6.

  6. Loosely install the four flanged cap screws (key 53). Prior to tightening the fasteners, ensure the through-hole in the mounting plate is centered around the outside diameter of the locking shaft (key 50). Rotate the assembly by hand in the appropriate direction opposite of anticipated lever rotation to eliminate initial clearance among parts.

  7. Tighten the cap screws (key 53) per the recommended torque values in table 6.

  8. Install the travel indicator (key 21) and travel indicator scale (key 19) to the lockout parts as illustrated in figure 6.
    WARNING: To avoid personal injury or property damage, ensure the travel indicator is installed correctly to coincide with the desired actuator action. Refer to figure 3 for more information.

  9. For normal actuator operation, remove the hairpin cotter pin (key 54) and locking pin (key 52) from the center pinhole of the mounting plate and reinstall these parts in the second pinhole for storage.

Operating the Locking Mechanism (Size 2 and 3)

To Lock the Actuator

  1. With the actuator lever (key 14) against the up travel stop (spring-fail position), insert the locking pin (key 52) through the center pinhole of the mounting plate and through the pin hole in the locking shaft. Install the hairpin cotter pin (key 54) for retention.
  2. Install the customer-supplied locking device to further prevent removal of the locking pin.

To Unlock the Actuator

  1. Remove the customer-supplied locking device.
  2. Remove the hairpin cotter pin (key 54) and locking pin (key 52) from the center pinhole of the mounting plate and reinstall these parts in the second pinhole for storage.

WARNING: To avoid personal injury or property damage, be aware the travel indicator scale (key 19) retains the locking shaft (key 50) during normal actuator operation. Removal of the travel indicator scale could allow the locking shaft to fall out in certain actuator orientations.
