Import Tips & Compliance

Gear ratio and reduction details must be listed; if gearbox separable, risk parts classification under 8483

Confirm DC excitation type; series-wound may have different statistical suffixes

IP rating and enclosure type (e.g

TEFC) important for hazardous location compliance
