Import Tips

Verify the valve includes an integral electrical actuator and provide documentation confirming its use in semiconductor manufacturing to avoid misclassification

Include material safety data sheets (MSDS) for any wetted parts, as cleanroom compatibility is critical for compliance

Check for RoHS compliance and obtain certificates, as valves for electronics often face additional environmental regulations
