Import Tips
• Include medical device registration (FDA 510(k) if applicable) and isolation test reports for smooth clearance
• Label with exact 1 kVA capacity and medical application to prevent reclassification as general industrial equipment
• Check for radiation-tolerant features which could shift classification under specialized Chapter 85 subheadings
