Cardinal EB-150-190: 150 lb NTEP Washdown from Cypress

Aug 29
4 min read

A Houston food or chemical room that hoses the bench every night does not belong on a painted dry scale. The stainless washdown carton All Scales USA actually stocks in Cypress is the Cardinal EB-150-190 — 150 lb × 0.05 lb / 60 kg × 0.02 kg, $1,653, ten in stock. Live slug: cardinal-eb-150-190-stainless-steel-washdown-bench-scale-150lb-x-0-05lb-ntep. This post is that 190 Storm washdown body, not a dry 150 lb shipping bench.

What the live page actually prints

Brand Cardinal. Model EB-150-190. Capacity × readability 150 lb × 0.05 lb / 60 kg × 0.02 kg. Pan 14 × 16 in stainless. Indicator is the 190 Storm, IP69K polycarbonate, 1 in ColorZONE LCD. Stainless column is included on this SKU (not an LPAN platter-only leftover). RS-232 standard. Power 100–240 VAC; optional BP190 lithium pack is not assumed in this carton. NTEP (this SKU) Yes — Class III, CC 03-031. Maker: Cardinal EB-190 series.

Live copy is explicit: battery is optional, not in the box unless we say so on the call. Do not order this SKU expecting a lithium pack. Texas trade still needs a place-in-service: NTEP in Texas and NTEP legal-for-trade.

Hose-down vs the dry bench chooser

If you are still deciding whether the hose hits the head, start with the type chooser we already posted: washdown bench vs dry bench. That article is not this SKU. The compact in-stock washdown example there is the A&D SK-5000WP at 11 lb. This Cardinal is the 150 lb stainless receiving bench with an IP69K Storm head — a different ceiling and a different room. Leaf: washdown scales.

Houston food and chemical hose-down

Pete at pete@allscales.com, (832) 766-5410, asks whether the hose hits the pillar every night, whether anyone is selling by weight, and whether ColorZONE HI/LO is the reason you are paying for a Storm head. A painted 150 lb shipping bench will rust in that room. This stainless 14 × 16 in platter and IP69K indicator are why Cypress sends the EB-150-190 into a Houston food pack or a chemical weigh-up.

  • Heaviest piece this week under 150 lb? Over that, this is the wrong ceiling.

  • Hose on the head? IP69K Storm is the point of this carton.

  • Texas sale by weight? Live NTEP CC 03-031. Place in service.

  • Need the lithium pack BP190 in the box? Say so. It is optional, not assumed.

Bench leaf: bench scales. Food / washdown / NTEP leaf: food, washdown & NTEP. House kits we build in the same shop are always MNM Scales — full name.

What is in the Cypress carton

  • EB-150 stainless bench with column.

  • 190 Storm indicator.

  • AC power (100–240 VAC).

  • BP190 lithium pack is optional — not assumed in this carton.

We do not do truck scales, pit scales, axle scales, or weighbridges. A 150 lb washdown bench is a counter call. How we take that call: Houston calibration from Cypress. Service: scale calibration Houston. No ISO 17025. No A2LA.

What we check before it leaves FM 529

Pete will put a known mass on the 14 × 16 in platter at 21249 FM 529 Rd if you ask. That is a Cypress bench conversation, not a certificate. We will not print Texan-certified on a washdown bench. If a test mass comes up, we say Texan-tested. CC 03-031 on the nameplate still needs a Texas place-in-service before a commercial sale by weight.

Typical Cypress jobs on this 150 lb Storm: a Houston meat pack that hoses the line at close, a chemical weigh-up that cannot keep a painted indicator, a receiving dock that already owns a dry 150 lb Ishida pole and just found the hose. We have also seen a shop try to stand this Cardinal next to a dry parcel scale and wonder why they paid $1,653. The money is the IP69K head and the stainless column, not a fancier shipping platter.

Live title used to be a broken Detecto/Cardinal mash-up. The live SKU we sell tonight is the Cardinal EB-150-190. We will not send you to a competitor dealer. Manufacturer literature stays on cardinalscale.com. Sister catalog: ek1200i.com.

ColorZONE on the Storm head is why a packer sees over/under without reading every digit through spray. IP69K is why Cypress will not send a painted ABS head into that room. The stainless column is why this SKU is not an LPAN leftover. Those three sentences are the Houston food/chem talk. If the hose never hits the scale, you may want a dry 150 lb Ishida pole instead — that is the IGX-150 post, not this Cardinal.

Parts and extra Storm accessories are a call-in. House kits in the same shop are always MNM Scales. Email pete@allscales.com a photo of the wash bay if you are unsure the 14 × 16 in platter clears the table.

On a Houston service call we will hose-check the Storm head only if you ask, and we will tell you again it is NTEP CC 03-031 that still needs a Texas place-in-service. That sentence is the whole legal talk on this washdown bench.
