8414.80.16.25 - Exceeding 4.48 kW but not exceeding 8.21 kW

This HTS classification, 8414.80.16.25, specifically covers stationary, reciprocating air compressors that have a power output exceeding 4.48 kW but not exceeding 8.21 kW. These compressors are designed for continuous operation in fixed installations and utilize a reciprocating piston mechanism to compress air. The defining characteristic for this category is the precise range of motor power, which dictates its application and often its size and output capacity.

This category is distinguished from its siblings primarily by its defined power range. For instance, 8414.80.16.15 covers compressors with a lower power output (exceeding 746 W but not exceeding 4.48 kW), while 8414.80.16.35 encompasses those with a higher power output (exceeding 8.21 kW but not exceeding 11.19 kW). The specific kilowatt range is the critical factor in differentiating these closely related compressor categories.

As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS classification structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the classification for these compressors ends at this detailed level, based on their type (stationary, reciprocating), function (air compressor), and specific power output range. The precise power rating is the ultimate determinant for assigning goods to this particular HTS code.
