Air-Operated Double Diaphragm Pump from Mexico
An air-operated double diaphragm pump uses compressed air to reciprocate two flexible diaphragms, creating a positive displacement action that transfers viscous liquids and slurries. Despite being pneumatically driven, the pump's liquid displacement mechanism is reciprocating, qualifying it under this tariff item for other reciprocating positive displacement pumps.

Import Tips
• Ensure the pump is classified as a liquid pump, not an air compressor, by documenting its primary function of liquid displacement
• Provide the manufacturer's specifications showing the reciprocating diaphragm mechanism to support the tariff classification
• Verify if the pump meets Canadian electrical or pressure equipment standards if it includes any electrical components
