Overview
This HTS classification, 8418.99.80.15, specifically covers refrigeration condensing units with a power output exceeding 2.2 kilowatts (kW) but not exceeding 7.5 kW. These units are essential components of larger refrigeration and freezing systems, responsible for compressing refrigerant gas and facilitating the heat exchange process. They are distinct from other sibling categories based on their defined power range.
Unlike the preceding categories, which handle units up to 746 Watts (0.746 kW) and those between 746 Watts and 2.2 kW, this classification addresses a mid-range power capacity. It also differentiates itself from the subsequent categories that classify condensing units with higher power outputs, such as those exceeding 7.5 kW. The primary differentiating factor is the electrical input or motor horsepower rating of the condensing unit itself.
As a leaf node in the HTS database, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the precise power output of the condensing unit falling within the specified 2.2 kW to 7.5 kW range. Importers and exporters should carefully verify the power specifications of their refrigeration condensing units to ensure accurate classification within this specific tariff line.
