Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If hydraulic rather than steam driven for propulsion
Hydraulic turbines and water wheels are in heading 8410, differentiated by operating fluid.
If for other vapor turbines like organic Rankine cycle in marine use
Non-steam vapor turbines for marine propulsion have distinct provisions outside steam-specific.
