Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 902290 when importing or exporting parts and accessories for x-ray apparatus, such as control panels or high tension generators. For example, if you're shipping a replacement x-ray tube for a medical imaging device, this is the correct code.

This code specifically covers apparatus and parts that utilize x-rays or similar ionizing radiation. Unlike HS-6 902291, which pertains to complete x-ray machines, 902290 focuses on components and accessories essential for their operation.

When dealing with x-ray systems, it's crucial to distinguish between complete units and their parts. For instance, while HS-6 902291 includes the entire x-ray apparatus, HS-6 902290 is for items like examination tables or screens that support x-ray functions.

If you're unsure whether your product fits this classification, consider its use. Items like control desks or examination chairs designed for x-ray procedures fall under this HS-6, while unrelated medical equipment should be classified elsewhere.
