Import Tips
• Verify horsepower rating with manufacturer specs to confirm ≤200 HP for this subheading; exceeding limits shifts to other provisions
• Provide detailed technical datasheets proving screw-type mechanism and refrigerating end-use to avoid misclassification as general compressors
• Include energy efficiency certifications like AHRI for US customs clearance and potential duty reductions
