Import Tips
• Include oil charge specs and mounting details in documentation; mismatched parts lead to assembly disputes at customs
• Label clearly as 'refrigerating compressor' to distinguish from industrial air compressors in 8414.80
• For low-temp applications, note evaporator temp range to support classification in refrigeration vs AC
