nickel Resistor Temperature Detectors (RTDs).

Module provides a precision output of either +1 V to +5 V or
0 V to +10 V, linear with temperature.

Swappable.

APPLICATIONS

Industrial signal conditioning
Industrial signal isolation
Industrial signal filtering

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The 7B Series of signal conditioners feature small size, low cost
and a wide output voltage range for a variety of applications
including process control and factory-floor environments. The
single-channel 7B modules accept inputs from a range of
transducers and are fully rated over the extended -40

o

C industrial temperature range. All 7B Series modules are

+85
rated for a nominal power supply input of +24 VDC; and, for
maximum flexibility, they will accept supply voltages in the +14
VDC to +35 VDC range. The input modules, with the exception
of the 7B21, provide a high-level output voltage that is factory
configured for either the +1 V to +5 V or 0 V to +10 V range.
The 7B21 is a unity gain, isolated input module with an
input/output range of +10V. Output modules are available that
provide either isolated process current or isolated bipolar
voltage output. Model 7B39 converts either a +1 V to +5 V input
to a 4 to 20 mA output or a 0 V to +10 V input to a 0-20 mA
output. The input/output ranges of the 7B39 are factory
configured. The 7B22 is a unity gain module that provides an
isolated +10V output signal. All modules have a universal pin­out and may be readily hot-swapped under full power without
disrupting field wiring. Each module accepts analog transducer
signals and transfers them to a process control or factory data
collection system without the inherent noise, non-linearity, drift
and extraneous voltages which frequently accompany the
signals.

The modules feature a maximum nonlinearity of +0.02% and

The 7B Series offers up to 1500 V rms continuous common
mode voltage isolation and 120 V rms of field wiring input
protection. The power supplies necessary to drive each of the
individual module’s input circuitry are internally isolated,
enabling the 7B Series modules to offer true channel-to-channel
isolation of the input signals.

The modules directly accept analog signals from
thermocouples, RTDs, current loop powered transmitters, and
other process control signals. The 7B Series modules amplify,
linearize, isolate, protect and convert the transducer output
signals to standardized analog inputs for high-level analog I/O
subsystems. The 7B Series Subsystem consists of 19-inch rack­compatible hardware (model AC 1363), with universal
mounting backplane and a family of plug-in (up to 16 per
backplane) input and output signal conditioning modules. Four­, eight-, and sixteen-channel backplanes are available. Each
backplane incorporates screw terminals for easy power
connections and field wiring, and includes a 25-pin D-type
connector for interfacing the high-level single-ended voltage
outputs to the user’s equipment. Gold-plated sockets are
provided on each channel of the backplane to ensure the
reliability of each module’s electrical connection.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The 7B14 is a low cost, single-channel signal conditioning
module that interfaces, amplifies and filters input voltages from
a wide variety of two-and three-wire platinum, copper and
nickel Resistor Temperature Detectors (RTDs) and provides a
precision output of either +1 V to +5 V or 0 V to +10 V, linear
with temperature. Model 7B14 features a nonlinearity of +
maximum (Pt and Cu RTDs). RTD excitation current, three­wire lead resistance compensation and a predictable upscale
open circuit indication provide a complete signal conditioning
solution. Rated to operate with a nominal +24 VDC supply,
Model 7B14 is mix-and-match and hot-swappable with other
7B Series input modules, so it can be inserted or removed from
any socket in the same backplane without disturbing system
power.

The three input pins of Model 7B14 are fully protected up to
+30 VDC. A 250 uA excitation current for platinum and nickel
RTDs and a 1mA excitation current for copper RTDs is
provided to create an input voltage to the 7B14. This current
also provides the upscale open circuit indication. A one-pole 3

0.05%

7B14

Hz filter preconditions the RTD signal prior to amplification,
provided by a low drift input amplifier. The output section
contains a two-pole low pass filter (-3 dB @ 3 Hz) and a buffer
amplifier. The two-pole output filter and subsequent buffer
ensure that a low noise, low impedance (<1Ω) signal is available
at the output to drive loads to 2 kΩ minimum.
