Import Tips
• Provide spectral response curves to CBSA to demonstrate the UVC-specific sensitivity and solar-blind characteristics, which justify classification under 8541.49.00
• Ensure the AlGaN material composition is documented, as this supports the semiconductor-based transducer definition
• Verify if the photodiode meets Canadian safety standards for UVC monitoring applications
