Import Tips

• Verify pump specifications including flow rate and vacuum level to confirm classification as 'other portable' and avoid reclassification to turbo-molecular pumps

• Provide detailed technical datasheets and end-use statements to demonstrate laboratory or industrial application, preventing misclassification as consumer goods

• Ensure compliance with EPA standards for vacuum pumps if used in air pollution control to avoid additional regulatory hurdles
