Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This category, HTS 8413.70, encompasses "Other centrifugal pumps." Centrifugal pumps operate by converting rotational kinetic energy into the hydrodynamic energy of the liquid flow. Unlike other pump types, they do not rely on positive displacement of a specific volume but rather on the centrifugal force generated by an impeller. This broad grouping includes a wide array of centrifugal pumps not otherwise specified, such as those used in industrial processes, water circulation systems, and general fluid transfer applications.

It is crucial to distinguish these centrifugal pumps from their sibling categories. For instance, sibling 8413.30 specifically covers fuel, lubricating, or cooling medium pumps designed for internal combustion piston engines. Similarly, 8413.50.00 deals with other reciprocating positive displacement pumps, which function on a different principle. HTS 8413.70 is reserved for those centrifugal pumps that do not fall into these more narrowly defined, specialized classifications.

Within HTS 8413.70, a distinction is made between specialized stock pumps and other centrifugal pumps. Subheading 8413.70.10.00 specifically addresses stock pumps intended for use with machinery in the production of cellulosic pulp, paper, or paperboard. All other centrifugal pumps, not fitting this specific industrial application, are classified under subheading 8413.70.20. This hierarchical structure allows for precise classification based on the pump's intended end-use in critical industrial sectors.
