Import Tips
• Provide API MPMS certification documentation for petroleum measurement standards compliance
• Declare exact accuracy specifications (e.g
• 0.2% ) to justify flow meter classification over level sensors
• Include explosion-proof ratings (ATEX/IECEx) for hazardous area use in import declarations
