Import Tips
• Provide engineering drawings showing hand-wheel operation and pressure specs to distinguish from power-operated valves
• Include hydrostatic test certificates proving 850 kPa+ rating to prevent reclassification to lower pressure codes
• Label clearly as 'industrial pipe valve' to avoid confusion with marine or aircraft-specific valves in other subheadings
