Overview
This HTS category, 8414.59.10.00, specifically classifies blowers designed and intended for use in pipe organs. These are specialized mechanical devices responsible for generating and supplying air to the pipes of an organ, enabling them to produce sound. The classification hinges on the dedicated function of these blowers within the context of musical instrument construction and operation.
This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8414.59.15.00, which covers fans primarily used for cooling electronic components such as microprocessors and data processing machines. While both are types of fans, the purpose and application are entirely different. The pipe organ blower is not designed for heat dissipation in electronic equipment but rather for the direct airflow required to activate musical elements. As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under this specific HTS code, meaning that all blowers meeting the criteria for pipe organ use fall directly under this classification.
