Overview
This HTS classification, 8504.40.70.01, specifically covers static converters that function as power supplies with a power output **not exceeding 50 Watts (W)**. These devices are integral components for automatically processing data machines or units classified under heading 8471, as well as certain printers and displays falling under subheadings 8443.31, 8443.32, 8528.42, 8528.52, or projectors of subheading 8528.62. The defining characteristic for inclusion in this category is the precise power output limitation.
This category is distinguished from its sibling categories primarily by its low power output threshold. For instance, 8504.40.70.07 covers power supplies with outputs exceeding 50 W but not exceeding 150 W, while 8504.40.70.12 addresses outputs between 150 W and 500 W. Therefore, the critical differentiating factor is the measurable electrical power output rating.
As a leaf node, this category does not have further subdivisions. The classification is definitively determined by the power output not exceeding 50 W. This ensures precise identification and duty assessment for low-power electronic components that serve as essential power conversion units for a range of sophisticated electronic equipment.
