Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide slurry compatibility test data (e.g
• for silica or alumina) to support semiconductor end-use claims
• Label with maximum pressure and temperature ratings to comply with ASME B16 standards for customs
• Avoid reclassification by specifying 'diaphragm type' distinctly from ball or gate in entry docs
