Air-Operated Double Diaphragm Pump from Japan
An air-operated double diaphragm pump uses compressed air to alternately pressurize two diaphragms, creating a reciprocating positive displacement action that transfers viscous liquids and slurries. Despite being air-driven, the pump's liquid displacement mechanism is reciprocating and positive displacement, qualifying it under tariff item 8413.50.00.

Import Tips
• Ensure the pump is classified as a reciprocating positive displacement pump, not a rotary or centrifugal type, to qualify for 8413.50.00
• Provide the manufacturer's specifications, including flow rate and materials, to the CBSA to support the classification
• Verify if the pump contains any electronic controls that might affect the tariff classification
