8501.51.40.40 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 8501.51.40.40, covers a specific range of AC electric motors that are multi-phase and designed for an electrical output exceeding 74.6 Watts but not exceeding 735 Watts. These motors are characterized by their power output falling within this defined range and are not specifically defined as gear motors. This category serves as a residual classification for AC multi-phase motors within the specified wattage limits that do not fit into more specific sub-classifications.

In contrast to the sibling category 8501.51.40.20, which specifically enumerates gear motors (motors with an integrated gearbox), this classification applies to AC multi-phase motors within the 74.6 W to 735 W output range that *lack* such integrated gearing mechanisms. The distinction lies in the presence or absence of a gear reduction unit as an integral component of the motor assembly.

As this classification is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within the HTS system for this specific category. Therefore, classification within 8501.51.40.40 is determined by the motor's type (AC, multi-phase), its output power (exceeding 74.6 W but not exceeding 735 W), and the absence of an integrated gearbox. Examples of motors falling under this classification would include standard induction motors used in various industrial and commercial applications, such as pumps, fans, and conveyor systems, where the motor's output power aligns with the specified parameters and it operates independently without a direct gear reduction unit.
