HS-6 · Subheading
910700
Time switches; with clock, watch movement or synchronous motor
Heading 9107 — Time switches; with clock, watch movement or synchronous motor
Chapter 91: Clocks and watches
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 910700 when importing or exporting time switches that incorporate a clock or watch movement. For example, this includes programmable timers used in lighting systems that rely on a mechanical or electronic clock mechanism to operate.
This code specifically applies to time switches that utilize clock movements, distinguishing them from simpler timers that may not have such mechanisms. For instance, a basic digital timer without a clock movement would not fall under this classification.
When considering similar products, note that HS-6 910701 covers time switches that do not include clock movements, while HS-6 910702 pertains to those with synchronous motors. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for accurate classification and compliance.
These time switches can be found in various applications, from home automation systems to industrial machinery, where precise timing control is essential.
