Unless you are looking for a 6 kOhm resistor, more information is needed.

Yup, 6k resistor with 24VDC would give you 4mA but I assume you are looking for some kind of voltage to current converter or isolator. Just Google 4-20ma isolator. Phoenix, ABB, Moore, API are popular brands.

Mohammed, why do you want 4mA continuously from this device? What is the purpose of the device? What is it used for?
