8406.82.10.10 - Not exceeding 7,460 kW

This HTS classification covers stationary steam turbines designed for condensing operation and having an output not exceeding 7,460 kilowatts (kW). These turbines are integral components in power generation systems, utilizing steam to drive a generator and produce electricity. They are characterized by their fixed installation and their design to operate with a condenser, which efficiently recovers heat from the exhaust steam by converting it back into water for reuse in the boiler.

The key distinguishing feature of this subcategory, 8406.82.10.10, is its power output limitation. It specifically encompasses turbines with a maximum output of 7,460 kW. This differentiates it from its sibling category, 8406.82.10.20, which covers steam turbines of the same type (stationary, condensing) but with an output exceeding 7,460 kW. Therefore, the precise kilowatt rating is the decisive factor for classification.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions within this specific classification. Classification at this level is determined by the specific output capacity of the stationary, condensing steam turbine. Examples would include smaller-scale industrial steam turbines used in manufacturing plants, district heating systems, or co-generation facilities where the power requirement aligns with the defined output range.
