Emerson VE4002S1T2B5 KJ3204X1-BA1 24 VDC High-Side Digital Output Card
The Emerson VE4002S1T2B5 with KJ3204X1-BA1 delivers high-density digital output control for DeltaV distributed control systems. This 32-channel high-side sourcing card provides reliable 24 VDC switching for solenoid valves, motor starters, indicator lamps, and relay coils across oil & gas, chemical processing, water treatment, and power generation facilities.
High-Side Sourcing Architecture
Unlike conventional sinking outputs that switch the ground path, this high-side sourcing design switches the positive 24 VDC supply rail to field devices. This architecture offers superior noise immunity in electrically harsh environments and enables simplified troubleshooting through positive voltage presence detection at load terminals.
Key Technical Advantages:
- 32 independent high-side sourcing outputs per card
- 24 VDC nominal operating voltage (18-30 VDC range)
- 500 mA continuous current per channel with 2A surge capability
- Short-circuit protection with automatic recovery
- Overtemperature shutdown with diagnostic annunciation
- Channel-to-channel isolation prevents cross-talk and fault propagation
- LED status indicators for per-channel output state visualization
- Hot-swappable design for online maintenance without process interruption

Industrial Control Applications
Solenoid Valve Manifolds: Drive pneumatic solenoid valve banks controlling process isolation, sample systems, and instrument air distribution. High-side switching eliminates ground loop issues common in multi-valve manifold installations.
Motor Starter Interlocks: Provide permissive and interlock signals to motor control centers (MCCs) for pump sequencing, compressor staging, and conveyor coordination. Diagnostic feedback confirms starter coil energization before process advancement.
Annunciator Panels: Control alarm lamps, tower lights, and visual indicators in control rooms and field junction boxes. Individual channel diagnostics detect burned-out bulbs and wiring faults for predictive maintenance.
Relay Logic Interfaces: Interface DeltaV control logic with legacy relay-based systems, safety PLCs, and third-party equipment requiring dry contact or 24 VDC control signals.
Advanced Diagnostic Features
Each output channel incorporates intelligent diagnostics that continuously monitor load current, voltage drop, and thermal conditions. Open-load detection identifies broken wiring or disconnected solenoids within one scan cycle, while short-circuit protection automatically disables faulted channels to prevent card damage. Overcurrent conditions trigger immediate shutdown with fault latching until operator acknowledgment, ensuring safe recovery from transient events.
The card's embedded microprocessor logs fault events with timestamp and channel identification, accessible through DeltaV AMS Device Manager for root cause analysis and maintenance trending. Predictive diagnostics flag degrading output transistors before failure, enabling proactive card replacement during scheduled maintenance windows.
System Integration & Wiring
The VE4002S1T2B5 mounts to DeltaV VE4070 LocalBus isolators and KL4104X1 dual-wide carriers, integrating seamlessly with M-series and S-series controllers. Compatible with multiple termination block options including VE4002S1T2B1 screw terminals, VE4002S1T2B2 fused blocks, and VE4002S1T2B3 mass termination for high-density installations.
Field wiring accepts 12-24 AWG conductors with color-coded terminal labels matching DeltaV I/O documentation standards. Common power bus architecture reduces wiring complexity by sharing 24 VDC supply across all 32 channels through internal distribution.
