The Fisher 3560 series is a legacy line of pneumatic valve positioners typically used with pneumatic actuators to ensure accurate valve plug positioning. While newer models like the 3660 or DVC6200 have largely replaced them, documentation for the 3560 is still essential for maintaining older plant infrastructure.

Maya carried the binder through the rain to the valve room. The Fisher 3560 sat like a sleeping animal at the end of a pipe.
