The first measurement conditioner that speaks your automation system's native language.

10 november 2026

For decades, precision force, weighing, torque and pressure measurements have relied on analogue transmission — 0–10 V or 4–20 mA signals vulnerable to noise, signal loss over long cable runs, and tedious manual set-up. The DPJ-IO changes the rules. By bringing strain gauge conditioning onto IO-Link, the internationally recognized standard for industrial communication, SCAIME turns high-precision measurement into a fully integrated, intelligent component of the modern automation architecture.

Here is why the DPJ-IO is positioned to be a game-winner in integrated instrumentation.

1. Digital Native: Measurement Without Compromise

Unlike traditional analogue conditioners, the DPJ-IO transmits measurement data through point-to-point digital communication — no signal degradation, no electromagnetic interference, no drift over up to 100 metres of cable.

0.01 % of full scale accuracy (up to 30 m cable; 0.05 % up to 100 m)
0.005 % linearity error — laboratory-grade performance on the factory floor
24-bit A/D conversion and a 4,800 Hz sampling rate
1 ms cycle time for genuinely real-time control loops
COM 3 communication at 230.4 kbaud — the fastest IO-Link class

While competitors bolt analogue outputs onto digital packaging, the DPJ-IO was designed digital from the ground up. The result: optimum accuracy, excellent repeatability, and increased equipment availability.

2. Plug-and-Work Integration into Automation Architectures

IO-Link is the de facto standard of modern PLC and field architectures — and the DPJ-IO speaks it natively (IO-Link version 1.1, M12 5-pin connection).

Remote configuration — set up and adjust the conditioner from the control room or the PLC, no dip switches, no on-site tweaking
Transparent diagnostics — sensor failure detection, overload monitoring and error counters feed directly into your system's health picture
Native identification — TEDS support (IEEE 1451-4) means sensors describe themselves: no manual data entry, no wiring mistakes
Standard M12 connectivity — plug into any IO-Link master, on any platform, with no proprietary gateways

This translates directly into faster commissioning, reduced downtime and easier maintenance — the three levers of overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).

3. One Device, Every Strain Gauge Application

The DPJ-IO is a single SKU covering the full spectrum of resistive strain gauge instrumentation:

Accepts 4-wire or 6-wire strain gauge bridges (full compensation of excitation-line losses)
Measurement ranges from 1 to 100 mV/V, sensor impedance 80 to 5,000 Ω
Up to 4 sensors on a single measuring chain — fewer devices, less wiring, lower cost per channel
Weighing, force, torque or pressure — one conditioner covers them all

4. Embedded Intelligence That Works for You

The DPJ-IO is not just a signal converter — it is a measurement manager:

Physical calibration (with load applied) or theoretical calibration (from sensor data sheet)
Measurement unit management — output the value in the unit your process needs
Min / max tracking, zero, tare (capacity) and sensitivity management
Selectable digital filters: Bessel, Butterworth or exponential moving average — tune the response to your process in seconds
LED status indicator — green OK, red error, flashing white for fast device localisation

Calibration, scaling and diagnostics that once required instruments and specialist intervention are now a few clicks in your engineering tool.

5. Built to Survive the Factory Floor

Precision instruments are often fragile. The DPJ-IO is not:

IP67-rated machined anodised aluminium housing — dust-tight and immersion-proof
−20 °C to +80 °C service temperature
EMC compliance for heavy industrial environments (EN 55022 Class B emission; ESD, burst and radiated immunity per EN 61326-1)
Ultra-compact: 90 × 28 × 20 mm, 80 g — mounts on machines, robots and moving frames via M4/M5 fixings
Made in France — European quality and supply-chain security
