Current Source Simulator Without Display
The USS20M24V-P is a compact, cost-effective 3-wire 0/4–20mA analog current source simulator designed for panel mounting. Featuring a smooth 5-turn precision potentiometer, front-panel PWR status LED, and rear range-selection jumper, it provides a dependable analog current signal for testing and calibrating PLC analog inputs, DCS controllers, and field indicators where an integrated digital readout is not required.

Key Features
- Active 3-wire 0/4–20mA current generation from 24V DC power
- Jumper-selectable 0–20mA or 4–20mA output range
- 5-turn precision wirewound potentiometer for smooth adjustment
- High output drive capability powering loop loads up to 1,100 Ω
- Input reverse polarity and continuous output short-circuit protection
- Standard 48 mm × 48 mm panel mount enclosure
- Dimensions: 48 mm × 48 mm × 90 mm
