Import Tips
• Document maximum sections (e.g
• 6-bank) and circuit type; common error is classifying as complete manifold assemblies
• Certify for fluid types (mineral oil/HFC); contamination risks require cleanroom packaging declarations
• Declare handle/joystick materials separately if precious metal components exceed de minimis
