Visually inspect the mechanical feedback linkage for wear, rust, or loose connections.
The manual explicitly states that the feedback arm’s travel limiter (a small set screw) must be loosened before applying full signal pressure. Failure to do so can bend the feedback beam, causing nonlinear response.

What is the you are experiencing (e.g., calibration drift, air leaks)?
Secure the feedback arm directly to the actuator shaft extension using alignment pins to eliminate backlash. Visually inspect the mechanical feedback linkage for wear,
The Fisher 3590 is a high-precision electro-pneumatic positioner engineered to convert a standard 4-20 mA electrical control signal into a proportional pneumatic output pressure to accurately position a control valve actuator. As an industry-standard device, it is known for delivering stable, accurate operation and straightforward adjustment, making it a reliable component in many process control systems.
