NTEP LABELING INSTRUCTIONS
Labeling Guidelines For NTEP Applications
These guidelines pertain to the use of the IDS 433/430 in NTEP (National Type
Evaluation Program) applications. If you are unfamiliar with NTEP, it is probable
that this information can be disregarded for your application.
NTEP has implications for “Legal-For-Trade” requirements only. These
requirements generally pertain to weighing scales that must be certified as
accurate by local, state
and federal Weights and Measures officials.

For installations that are to be certified as “Legal-For-Trade”, install the NTEP
label approximately as shown.
The label consists of two parts, the label and the backing material. Carefully
remove the backing from the label and affix the label to the IDS 433/430 in the
position indicated above.
Label text must be inserted by the user/installer in the space provided to reflect
the scale/weighing system capacity and minimum display increment (count-by). A
permanent ink marking pen or matte-finish vinyl lettering is recommended for this
purpose. After the appropriate information is in place, apply one of the supplied
transparent overlays to protect the complete label.
