Overview
HTS category 8413 encompasses a wide array of pumps designed for the movement of liquids. This broad classification includes devices that function either by displacing a fixed volume of liquid or by utilizing centrifugal force. Crucially, it also covers pumps that are equipped with or specifically designed to incorporate a measuring device, ensuring accurate dispensing or recording of liquid volumes. Liquid elevators, which facilitate the upward movement of liquids, are also included within this category, alongside any parts specifically designed for use with these pumps or elevators.
This category distinguishes itself from its siblings, which represent diverse classes of goods ranging from live animals (Chapter 01) to various other machinery and mechanical appliances (other chapters within Section XVI). Within Section XVI, 8413 focuses exclusively on the mechanical means of liquid transfer, differentiating it from, for example, electrical apparatus (Chapter 85) or heating and cooling equipment (Chapters 72-83). The defining characteristic of goods classified under 8413 is their primary function of pumping or elevating liquids.
The subcategories within 8413 provide a detailed breakdown based on the pump's mechanism, intended application, and whether they incorporate measurement capabilities. For instance, pumps fitted with measuring devices are segregated, as are specific types like fuel, lubricating, or cooling pumps for internal combustion engines, and concrete pumps. Further distinctions are made between different positive displacement pump types (reciprocating and rotary) and various centrifugal pumps. Finally, a dedicated subdivision addresses "Parts" intended for use with any of the pumps or liquid elevators covered in this chapter, ensuring comprehensive coverage of this mechanical sector.
