Liquid elevators
Heading 8413 — Pumps; for liquids, whether or not fitted with measuring device, liquid elevators
Chapter 84: Nuclear reactors, boilers, machinery
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 841382 when importing or exporting liquid elevators, which are devices designed to lift liquids from one level to another. For example, a shipment of a hydraulic liquid elevator used in a wastewater treatment facility would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers liquid elevators, distinguishing them from other types of pumps listed under HS-4 8413. For instance, while HS-6 841381 includes pumps for specific applications, 841382 focuses solely on elevators that move liquids vertically.
When classifying products, note that HS-6 841382 applies to elevators that may or may not have measuring devices. This means that a liquid elevator with integrated flow measurement would still be classified here, but it’s essential to ensure the primary function is lifting liquids.
If you're dealing with a liquid elevator that is part of a larger system, such as a chemical processing plant, make sure to verify that it meets the specifications outlined in this subheading to avoid misclassification.
