4 20ma signal generator circuit for 24VDC Devices

4-20ma signal generator circuit for 24VDC Devices
I would like to build a circuit using a 24VDC power supply that would give me an output of 4-20ma or wider range to supply the loop power to manually control a valve while a new controler is installed. My initial idea is to use a
24VDC Omron power supply with a 4.8K potentiometer and a 1.2K resistor. I think this should work but is there something that would be better. This project would also provide us with a piece of equipment for bench testing. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

4-20mA potentiometer
How to use a potentiometer for simulating a 4-20mA signal. The use of this document is at your own risk, errors in the calculation or wrong selection of components can lead to damage to the equipment.
Calculation of resistance for potentiometer
In this example we are using an A/D converter which operates at a maximum input voltage of 24volt. In order to transfer the current signal from 4-20mA to a voltage signal we need a resistor of 6 Killo ohm (24 volt / 20 mA = 6 killo ohm, 24 volt / 4 mA = 1.2 killo ohm) The potentiometer shall be connected as indicated in the diagram below.
