Overview
This HTS classification, 8414.80.16.40, specifically covers stationary reciprocating air compressors with a power output exceeding 11.19 kilowatts (kW) but not exceeding 19.4 kW. These compressors are designed for fixed installation and utilize a piston-and-cylinder mechanism to compress air. This category is crucial for identifying industrial-grade compressors used in a variety of applications where consistent and substantial compressed air is required, such as in manufacturing plants, automotive repair shops, and construction sites.
The distinction of this category lies precisely in its defined power range. It differs from its sibling categories by excluding compressors with lower power outputs (e.g., 8414.80.16.35, which covers up to 11.19 kW) and those with higher power outputs (e.g., 8414.80.16.45, which begins at 19.4 kW). Therefore, accurate determination of the compressor's rated power output is the primary criterion for its classification under this specific code.
As this node is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. The classification ends at this level, meaning that any stationary reciprocating air compressor meeting the power criteria of exceeding 11.19 kW but not exceeding 19.4 kW will be classified under 8414.80.16.40.
