Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8501.40.60Higher: 53.7% vs 53.3%

If output exceeds 74.6W

Higher power single-phase AC motors without gear reduction fall into different output subranges.

8483.50.60.00Lower: 52.8% vs 53.3%

If sold as gear reducer separate from motor

Gears and gearing elements imported without integrated motor are classified under transmission components.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Verify motor output with nameplate data and include test reports to confirm 37.5-74.6W range for proper classification

• Provide detailed specs on gear ratio and enclosure type (e.g

• TEFC) to avoid reclassification as fractional horsepower motors

• Ensure CSA/UL certification labels are visible; common pitfall is missing motor efficiency documentation
