Ohaus SJX1502N/E Jewelry Scale: Class II Legal-for-Trade in Cypress
A jeweler who buys gold by the tenth of a gram and a shop that only needs a process check are not the same customer. The Ohaus SJX1502N/E is the Scout we put on a Cypress counter when the buyer says Class II and legal-for-trade. All Scales USA stocks it. The live jewelry listing we write from is Ohaus SJX1502N/E Scout, 1500 g × 0.01 g NTEP — $277. The jewelry leaf is live: jewelry scales.
What the live carton actually is
Model SJX1502N/E. Ohaus part 30253056. Capacity is 1,500 g. Display increment (d) is 0.01 g. Certified increment (e) is 0.1 g. Repeatability 0.02 g. Linearity ±0.03 g. Pan is 5.5 × 6.7 in / 140 × 170 mm stainless. Large backlit LCD. AC adapter is in the box. Four AA cells are not — Ohaus lists about 80 hours if you add them. Net weight 2.2 lb / 1 kg. Two-year manufacturer warranty. NTEP on this SKU: Class II, Certificate of Conformance 16-015A1. That class is on the live All Scales page. We are not inventing a Class I or a Class III sticker.
Ohaus publishes the same numbers on the manufacturer page: Ohaus SJX1502N/E (us.ohaus.com). Draftshield, RS-232, USB, Ethernet, Bluetooth, in-use cover, and a carrying case are Ohaus options. They are not assumed in the carton we ship. We stock a second live listing of the same SJX1502N/E at ohaus-scout-pro-sjx-series-ntep-legal-for-trade-scale-1500-gram-accyracy-0-01 — $371. Same model. If you are not sure which URL to use, call the shop.
Class II vs process — the Cypress talk
This is the sentence that saves a return. Legal-for-trade on the SJX1502N/E uses the certified 0.1 g increment, not the 0.01 g display increment. If you are buying or selling precious metal by weight in Texas, the number that matters after place-in-service is e = 0.1 g. The 0.01 g digits are still useful for process work — melt checks, parts counting, a shop that is not selling by that tenth. Counting, percent, and checkweigh on the live page are process functions. Grain is a selectable unit. Place the scale in service before you use it for a commercial sale. We walk that Texas difference here: NTEP and legal-for-trade in Texas. The NTEP leaf is NTEP legal for trade.
We do not claim All Scales USA is a TDA licensed service company in this post. We do not print ISO 17025 or A2LA. If you need a Houston visit after the Scout lands, start with how we handle a Houston calibration call and (832) 766-5410.
What we ask before it leaves Cypress
Are you selling by weight, or checking a process? That decides whether Class II and place-in-service matter.
Do you need 0.01 g display for the bench, knowing trade uses 0.1 g?
Is 1,500 g enough, or are you melting larger lots? This is not a 2.2 kg Sartorius gold bench.
External span / linearity only. No internal cal motor on this Scout. Have a mass that matches the manual.
AC in the box. Batteries and interface kits are extra.
A compact industrial bench is a different job: compact digital bench scale from Cypress. Sister jewelry catalog: ek1200i jewelry scales.
What is in the box, and what is not
SJX1502N/E Scout portable balance.
140 × 170 mm stainless pan.
AC adapter.
Instruction manual.
Not assumed: 4×AA, RS-232 / USB / Ethernet / Bluetooth kit, draftshield, in-use cover, case.
On a Cypress jewelry counter we see two uses in the same week. A gold buyer who invoices in pennyweight or troy ounce needs the Class II certificate and a place-in-service talk. A caster who only checks a melt before it goes to the next bench can live on the 0.01 g display as process. We will not mix those jobs on one invoice. If the stone tray shares the bench with a shipping scale, move the Scout. Air from a door and a vibrating poly bag both move a 0.01 g digit.
The jewelry leaf now holds 27 live SKUs: jewelry scales. The SJX1502N/E is the Class II portable we actually quote for 1,500 g gold and small parts. A compact industrial bench is still the wrong page for a jeweler — that is compact digital bench scale from Cypress. If you already own a Scout and only need a check mass, read the Texan-tested weights post after it publishes and match the manual, do not assume 100 g.
FAQ
What does the /E mean?
On this live SKU it is the SJX1502N/E Scout portable. We will not invent a second meaning. The NTEP line on the page is Class II, CC 16-015A1.
Can I sell gold on the 0.01 g digits?
The live page is explicit: legal-for-trade uses the certified 0.1 g increment. Place in service before commercial use. Call the shop if your city inspector is already on the calendar.
