The Siemens 3RS7000-1DE00 is a SIRIUS single-range signal converter that takes a 0...10 V input and outputs a proportional 4...20 mA current loop signal. It's an active design — meaning the output is powered from the loop, not just a passive resistor — and it draws 0.29 W from the input side. The 4...20 mA output is the industrial standard for long-distance transmission to a PLC analog input card, VFD, or remote I/O, and the 0...10 V input matches most sensor and controller voltage outputs.
The 6.2 mm width is the key number for panel fill: you can fit over 150 of these across a standard 1-meter rail section. Depth is 72.5 mm, height 93 mm, so it clears most shallow enclosures.
Signal integrity and accuracy
The temperature drift is 0.015 %/°C, which means over a 40 °C swing inside a panel the output shifts less than 0.6 % of span — good enough for most process monitoring but not precision metrology. The input voltage ripple is limited to 20 mV maximum; if your 0...10 V source has more ripple than that, you'll need a filter ahead of this converter. Rise time is 6 ms, so it responds fast enough for conveyor speed signals or pressure transients but not for high-speed servo feedback. Galvanic isolation exists between input and output, which prevents ground loops from corrupting the 4...20 mA signal — a common headache when mixing analog signals from different power supplies.
