Import Tips
• Obtain cryogenic testing certifications (e.g
• impact tests at -196°C) to prove suitability for LNG applications
• Declare fin density, passage configurations, and brazing process details to confirm classification
• Beware of valuation issues; exclude installation costs from customs value for modular cold box units
