Alternative Classifications

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

8537.10.30.00Same rate: 52.7%

If when incorporating relay modules from heading 8536

Boards with two or more switching apparatus like relays fall under measured voltage subheading rather than programmable controllers.

8471.41.01Lower: 32.5% vs 52.7%

If classified as industrial automatic data processing unit

Controllers functioning primarily as embedded computers for data processing shift to ADP machines in Chapter 84.

9032.89.60Lower: 36.7% vs 52.7%

If for process control instruments with Chapter 90 sensors

Extensive incorporation of measuring instruments from Chapter 90 may classify as automatic control apparatus instead.
