Leeson 10HP Permanent Magnet DC Motor
10HP (7.46kW) permanent magnet DC motor for packaging machinery, featuring high torque at low speeds within 750W-75kW range. Falls under HTS 8501.32.5540 as other DC motors not exceeding 75kW. Ideal for food processing conveyors requiring precise speed control.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If output ≤750W
Lower power DC motors classify under 8501.31 regardless of application.
If imported as complete machinery subassembly
Motors integral to finished machines may classify with the machine under Chapter 84.
If imported as part of DC motor-generator set
Combined motor-generator units shift to heading 8503.
