WEBVTT

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:37.055
Today's expected duration is about one
00:00:37.055 --> 00:00:45.404
hour. We have a few housekeeping items.
00:00:45.404 --> 00:00:48.967
Everyone will be kept on mute during the
00:00:48.967 --> 00:00:51.177
presentation. If you have questions or
00:00:51.177 --> 00:00:54.658
comments, we invite you to type them in
00:00:54.658 --> 00:00:56.143
the chat at any time. We will try to
00:00:56.143 --> 00:00:59.279
answer as many questions as we can from
00:00:59.279 --> 00:01:01.648
the chat and the continuing education
00:01:01.648 --> 00:01:05.335
code will be placed in the chat box
00:01:05.335 --> 00:01:06.999
throughout the presentation. Today's
00:01:06.999 --> 00:01:13.530
presenter is national import specialist,
00:01:13.530 --> 00:01:15.280
Jason Christie.
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:16.524
>> JASON CHRISTIE: Good morning or
00:01:16.524 --> 00:01:21.462
afternoon. My name is Jason Christie and
00:01:21.462 --> 00:01:25.711
I'm part of the in this case of NIS105
00:01:25.711 --> 00:01:28.783
along are John Vish o.
00:01:28.783 --> 00:01:30.914
As you can see on the screen, today
00:01:30.914 --> 00:01:36.356
we're going to be discussing automatic
00:01:36.356 --> 00:01:40.883
regulating or controlling instruments of
00:01:40.883 --> 00:01:43.318
Heading 9032. This will make you aware
00:01:43.318 --> 00:01:47.475
of what belongs in Heading 9032 and what
00:01:47.475 --> 00:01:50.217
does not. There are chapter notes that
00:01:50.217 --> 00:01:53.377
will help you aid with the classifying
00:01:53.377 --> 00:02:00.813
of these products. Most notably will be
00:02:00.813 --> 00:02:04.057
note seven to Chapter 90.
00:02:04.057 --> 00:02:08.313
I'm stationed in buffalo, New York as
00:02:08.313 --> 00:02:12.686
a remote specialist and started with
00:02:12.686 --> 00:02:17.997
customs and border protection in 2003. I
00:02:17.997 --> 00:02:24.306
went throughout the career path of
00:02:24.306 --> 00:02:28.524
import specialist and then ultimately
00:02:28.524 --> 00:02:32.740
became a national import specialist
00:02:32.740 --> 00:02:35.033
about four years ago. I've spoken with
00:02:35.033 --> 00:02:39.125
many import specialists in the machine
00:02:39.125 --> 00:02:42.226
center. I continue to welcome those
00:02:42.226 --> 00:02:50.095
conversations and hope I have helped. My
00:02:50.095 --> 00:02:54.591
office is mostly in Chapter 90.One
00:02:54.591 --> 00:02:56.558
of the topics I've been hearing
00:02:56.558 --> 00:03:00.138
confusions about are the automatic
00:03:00.138 --> 00:03:05.061
controlling and regulatory instruments
00:03:05.061 --> 00:03:11.622
of Heading 9032.
00:03:11.622 --> 00:03:14.482
Just to handle a few housekeeping
00:03:14.482 --> 00:03:16.765
slides before the presentation. This
00:03:16.765 --> 00:03:19.341
slides shows the mission statement. We
00:03:19.341 --> 00:03:21.438
protect the American people, safeguard
00:03:21.438 --> 00:03:26.187
our borders and protect the nation's
00:03:26.187 --> 00:03:29.636
economic prosperity. We also have the
00:03:29.636 --> 00:03:38.034
office of trade mission statement.
00:03:38.034 --> 00:03:42.687
This slide is just a reminder that our
00:03:42.687 --> 00:03:46.620
binding rulings program is a great way
00:03:46.620 --> 00:03:51.187
to get E rulings for your product. Our
00:03:51.187 --> 00:03:52.778
new system has made it easy to receive
00:03:52.778 --> 00:03:54.599
not only a ruling request but the
00:03:54.599 --> 00:04:06.781
documents that are coincide with that
00:04:06.781 --> 00:04:14.256
request. NCSD rulings are being
00:04:14.256 --> 00:04:17.814
responded to within 30 days.
00:04:17.814 --> 00:04:20.287
Most of the time you'll not have the
00:04:20.287 --> 00:04:22.285
exact product listing in the ruling,
00:04:22.285 --> 00:04:25.943
which means there could be different
00:04:25.943 --> 00:04:28.875
nuances that make up your situation.
00:04:28.875 --> 00:04:32.625
Always use reasonable care when
00:04:32.625 --> 00:04:37.060
classifying merchandise. This disclaimer
00:04:37.060 --> 00:04:39.062
says the presentation is formational
00:04:39.062 --> 00:04:42.569
purposes only. Every product is
00:04:42.569 --> 00:04:46.529
different and speaking with a customs
00:04:46.529 --> 00:04:49.877
expert such as a broker, trade attorney,
00:04:49.877 --> 00:04:51.845
et cetera is usually the best way to
00:04:51.845 --> 00:04:53.889
make sure you're using proper reasonable
00:04:53.889 --> 00:04:56.379
care. The binding rulings program is a
00:04:56.379 --> 00:04:58.349
great way to ensure your classification
00:04:58.349 --> 00:05:02.716
is correct.
00:05:02.716 --> 00:05:08.309
Also, the images that are used are
00:05:08.309 --> 00:05:11.593
either from rulings are from the
00:05:11.593 --> 00:05:14.886
internet. We don't endorse products
00:05:14.886 --> 00:05:18.193
pictured in the webinar. We like to
00:05:18.193 --> 00:05:19.875
include pictures to show an example of
00:05:19.875 --> 00:05:22.353
what we're looking for, but it should
00:05:22.353 --> 00:05:25.725
not be construed as the exact product,
00:05:25.725 --> 00:05:27.558
more or less as an example of what we're
00:05:27.558 --> 00:05:28.968
looking at.
00:05:28.968 --> 00:05:31.599
Let's get into the presentation.
00:05:31.599 --> 00:05:35.279
What does Heading 9032 cover?
00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:38.020
Thermostats, man stats and other
00:05:38.020 --> 00:05:42.497
instruments such as pneumatic and
00:05:42.497 --> 00:05:53.503
industrial process control devices. We
00:05:53.503 --> 00:05:58.537
will touch on each of these, Heading
00:05:58.537 --> 00:06:01.473
9032 also has a parts and accessories
00:06:01.473 --> 00:06:02.065
provision.
00:06:02.065 --> 00:06:05.911
Heading 9032 starts with thermostats.
00:06:05.911 --> 00:06:13.508
When I describe to people how note seven
00:06:13.508 --> 00:06:17.007
to Chapter 90 is the biggest chapter,
00:06:17.007 --> 00:06:19.038
the easiest real world example is
00:06:19.038 --> 00:06:22.972
thermostats. I've pictured a typical
00:06:22.972 --> 00:06:26.435
wall thermostat used to regulate air
00:06:26.435 --> 00:06:32.814
conditioning, refrigeration or heatings
00:06:32.814 --> 00:06:41.449
systems. We also have wall mounted
00:06:41.449 --> 00:06:45.032
thermostats and finally we have other
00:06:45.032 --> 00:06:49.113
thermostats, those would be for fans.
00:06:49.113 --> 00:06:51.781
It's still regulating the temperature,
00:06:51.781 --> 00:06:56.942
however a fan is not a refrigerator, air
00:06:56.942 --> 00:06:58.938
conditioner or heating system. That
00:06:58.938 --> 00:07:03.007
would fall to others. We also classify
00:07:03.007 --> 00:07:07.259
other temperature control boards. There
00:07:07.259 --> 00:07:09.562
are the boards that had a temperature
00:07:09.562 --> 00:07:14.223
sensor, LED that displayed the actual
00:07:14.223 --> 00:07:16.472
and desired temperature settings and
00:07:16.472 --> 00:07:20.351
they will design to regulate
00:07:20.351 --> 00:07:21.940
temperatures and industrial process
00:07:21.940 --> 00:07:25.251
applications, how do thermostats
00:07:25.251 --> 00:07:32.062
operate? If you own an older home you
00:07:32.062 --> 00:07:41.285
may have a mechanical thermostat. Two
00:07:41.285 --> 00:07:47.258
strips of metal are laminated together
00:07:47.258 --> 00:07:53.284
and expand and contract. Digital
00:07:53.284 --> 00:07:56.065
thermostats contain an electronic sensor
00:07:56.065 --> 00:07:57.472
that will show the current temperature.
00:07:57.472 --> 00:08:02.069
There are also electromechanical
00:08:02.069 --> 00:08:05.034
thermostats, these are a lot less common
00:08:05.034 --> 00:08:09.066
than what I normally see.
00:08:09.066 --> 00:08:19.877
Next we move down to 9032.20.0000, man
00:08:19.877 --> 00:08:27.161
stats. A good example is in N274662,
00:08:27.161 --> 00:08:31.966
pressure switches used in refrigeration
00:08:31.966 --> 00:08:35.790
and air conditioning systems, consist of
00:08:35.790 --> 00:08:38.067
a measuring device, a control device and
00:08:38.067 --> 00:08:41.541
a starting/stopping device. There's also
00:08:41.541 --> 00:08:44.284
a dial for presetting the desired
00:08:44.284 --> 00:08:49.883
pressure values, automatic, reset, and
00:08:49.883 --> 00:09:00.506
an alarm. In N070778, a pressure
00:09:00.506 --> 00:09:05.226
transmitter, the device had the ability
00:09:05.226 --> 00:09:12.511
to auto matically shut down and restart
00:09:12.511 --> 00:09:15.290
the machinery.
00:09:15.290 --> 00:09:18.576
When classifying within Heading 9032
00:09:18.576 --> 00:09:21.566
you'll notice some of the sub headings
00:09:21.566 --> 00:09:24.477
early on. They seem to be similar to the
00:09:24.477 --> 00:09:26.791
provisions later in the heading. I
00:09:26.791 --> 00:09:29.250
recommend looking to the explanatory
00:09:29.250 --> 00:09:35.105
notes. If your classification can fit as
00:09:35.105 --> 00:09:42.225
a man status, it will be found later.
00:09:42.225 --> 00:09:47.040
Look to note 9032 when it comes to these
00:09:47.040 --> 00:09:49.045
types of articles.
00:09:49.045 --> 00:09:54.541
Explanatory note 1A to Heading 9032,
00:09:54.541 --> 00:09:57.721
man stats consist of a pressure
00:09:57.721 --> 00:10:00.627
sensitive device which compares by means
00:10:00.627 --> 00:10:02.474
of a spring the pressure to be
00:10:02.474 --> 00:10:05.068
controlled within the prescribed
00:10:05.068 --> 00:10:13.663
pressure and an electronic contact and
00:10:13.663 --> 00:10:21.625
small valve. This may be used to control
00:10:21.625 --> 00:10:26.011
a motor pump or compressor. These differ
00:10:26.011 --> 00:10:33.534
from the pressure reducing valves of
00:10:33.534 --> 00:10:41.475
heading 8481. Now we have other
00:10:41.475 --> 00:10:48.568
instruments and apparatus, this is
00:10:48.568 --> 00:10:51.785
broken down into hydraulic and
00:10:51.785 --> 00:11:01.136
pneumatic. Hydraulic transforms the
00:11:01.136 --> 00:11:04.816
fluid energy into mechanical work at
00:11:04.816 --> 00:11:10.819
specified locations, hydraulic systems
00:11:10.819 --> 00:11:15.101
future high density and precision
00:11:15.101 --> 00:11:19.099
control especially when used with a
00:11:19.099 --> 00:11:20.792
computer type control system. Then we
00:11:20.792 --> 00:11:32.794
have pneumatic controls.
00:11:32.794 --> 00:11:36.047
The controller determines the level of
00:11:36.047 --> 00:11:39.039
pneumatic output system based on the
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.255
comparison of the measured levels versus
00:11:41.255 --> 00:11:43.604
the established set points. Similar to
00:11:43.604 --> 00:11:48.509
the devices in the ruling, these measure
00:11:48.509 --> 00:11:50.879
temperature or pressure and transmit a
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:53.353
correct air signal to the device and
00:11:53.353 --> 00:11:54.452
final control element.
00:11:54.452 --> 00:11:59.211
The power supply and output of the
00:11:59.211 --> 00:12:02.199
pneumatic controller is typically
00:12:02.199 --> 00:12:07.224
compressed air or natural gas. You can
00:12:07.224 --> 00:12:11.761
see the example I have on the slide.
00:12:11.761 --> 00:12:14.039
At this point we move onto the other
00:12:14.039 --> 00:12:20.883
points in Heading 9032, this started
00:12:20.883 --> 00:12:36.885
with 89.2000 and 4000 which are voltage
00:12:36.885 --> 00:12:49.231
and voltage regulators.
00:12:49.231 --> 00:12:53.885
Another example is L72286 which
00:12:53.885 --> 00:12:59.258
describes the LE1,200 automatic voltage
00:12:59.258 --> 00:13:01.165
regulator which was used for protection
00:13:01.165 --> 00:13:05.880
against brown outs and over voltages, it
00:13:05.880 --> 00:13:08.976
recognizes changes in incoming voltages
00:13:08.976 --> 00:13:13.326
and routes the electricity as
00:13:13.326 --> 00:13:13.756
appropriate.
00:13:13.756 --> 00:13:17.260
Since the transformer is necessary for
00:13:17.260 --> 00:13:19.383
the electricity coming in from the
00:13:19.383 --> 00:13:21.669
single home outlet is small, the
00:13:21.669 --> 00:13:24.597
regulators provides the essential
00:13:24.597 --> 00:13:30.731
character and CV P found device to be
00:13:30.731 --> 00:13:32.892
classified 4000.
00:13:32.892 --> 00:13:43.639
We then move to 9032.89.6015 for
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:47.761
complete systems and 6025 for other.
00:13:47.761 --> 00:13:51.920
These are not classified thermostats.
00:13:51.920 --> 00:13:57.037
CV P classified an automotive
00:13:57.037 --> 00:14:01.979
temperature control unit. Contained a
00:14:01.979 --> 00:14:08.539
printed circuit board. This is used to
00:14:08.539 --> 00:14:11.321
transfer the data from the desired heat
00:14:11.321 --> 00:14:15.543
of the carseat to the switch or other
00:14:15.543 --> 00:14:21.390
mechanism. The TCU sends a serial data
00:14:21.390 --> 00:14:23.979
back to the central computer in the car.
00:14:23.979 --> 00:14:26.110
It was found that the device did not
00:14:26.110 --> 00:14:38.291
qualify under 90A but rather 90B. The
00:14:38.291 --> 00:14:42.075
functionality was similar and it was
00:14:42.075 --> 00:14:46.544
controlling the temperature. CV P ruled
00:14:46.544 --> 00:14:54.796
that was classified in 9032.89.6025.
00:14:54.796 --> 00:15:00.013
Finally we get to the process control
00:15:00.013 --> 00:15:04.198
instruments and apparatus. If you have
00:15:04.198 --> 00:15:06.733
items that have not fit earlier in the
00:15:06.733 --> 00:15:20.638
heading, these fall to the sub levels.
00:15:20.638 --> 00:15:24.548
6030 is for complete systems.
00:15:24.548 --> 00:15:37.228
In N138162 CV P designated a device
00:15:37.228 --> 00:15:39.611
that had the ability to receive
00:15:39.611 --> 00:15:41.663
temperature measurements to turn on and
00:15:41.663 --> 00:15:45.388
off heaters to ensure the plastic resin
00:15:45.388 --> 00:15:48.236
is brought to and is maintained as a
00:15:48.236 --> 00:15:50.759
predetermined desired temperature. The
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:53.539
secondary function was to bring in and
00:15:53.539 --> 00:15:58.825
maintain the resin at a non destructive
00:15:58.825 --> 00:16:01.113
temperature and keep the tooling
00:16:01.113 --> 00:16:03.671
following the interruption. It's also
00:16:03.671 --> 00:16:07.070
included an operator touch screen that
00:16:07.070 --> 00:16:12.477
was used in unusual circumstances. Items
00:16:12.477 --> 00:16:17.699
classified in 6060 would include mass
00:16:17.699 --> 00:16:21.889
flow controllers. These devices not only
00:16:21.889 --> 00:16:25.758
have the flow meter, but are also able
00:16:25.758 --> 00:16:27.547
to control the flow of the liquid going
00:16:27.547 --> 00:16:33.858
through. This sets them apart from a
00:16:33.858 --> 00:16:36.138
9026 device which are used only to
00:16:36.138 --> 00:16:39.013
measure the flow. On the slide you can
00:16:39.013 --> 00:16:43.739
see a gas flow controller.
00:16:43.739 --> 00:16:46.633
We now get to the parts and
00:16:46.633 --> 00:16:47.916
accessories provision.
00:16:47.916 --> 00:16:51.823
The break down matches the earlier
00:16:51.823 --> 00:16:56.292
headings pretty closely. I've not seen
00:16:56.292 --> 00:17:17.917
as many accessories in this provision.
00:17:17.917 --> 00:17:21.326
Tariff purposes, a part is an ain't
00:17:21.326 --> 00:17:26.171
Grand Central constitute YUNT component
00:17:26.171 --> 00:17:28.144
of another article necessary to the
00:17:28.144 --> 00:17:31.844
completion of an article with which is
00:17:31.844 --> 00:17:34.391
is USDZ and which enables the article to
00:17:34.391 --> 00:18:15.925
function in the manner for which it was
00:18:15.925 --> 00:18:15.926
designed. An imported item dedicated solely for use with another article is part of the article within the meaning of the HTSUS. An imported item is a separate and distinct commercial entity.
00:18:15.926 --> 00:18:19.111
Chapter 90 note two.
00:18:19.111 --> 00:18:21.367
You've got the A, B, and C part for
00:18:21.367 --> 00:18:21.730
these.
00:18:21.730 --> 00:18:25.977
A is parts and accessories of goods
00:18:25.977 --> 00:18:31.197
included in any of the headings of this
00:18:31.197 --> 00:18:35.331
chapter or 84, 85, or 91. Part B is
00:18:35.331 --> 00:18:41.317
other parts and accessories if suitable
00:18:41.317 --> 00:18:46.077
for use solely or principally with a
00:18:46.077 --> 00:18:48.207
particular kind of machine, instrument,
00:18:48.207 --> 00:18:52.639
or apparatus or with a number of
00:18:52.639 --> 00:18:58.669
machines, instruments or apparatus. All
00:18:58.669 --> 00:19:01.857
other parts and accessories are to be
00:19:01.857 --> 00:19:07.355
classified in heading 9033. I don't see
00:19:07.355 --> 00:19:11.019
too much in heading 9033 because most of
00:19:11.019 --> 00:19:15.677
the time a part can end up fitting in a
00:19:15.677 --> 00:19:16.202
different location.
00:19:16.202 --> 00:19:23.325
I will be taking questions at the end.
00:19:23.325 --> 00:19:27.144
I'll scroll back to some of the
00:19:27.144 --> 00:19:29.827
questions being asked and try to address
00:19:29.827 --> 00:19:31.080
them at that time.
00:19:31.080 --> 00:19:35.394
Chapter 90 note 1F is part of general
00:19:35.394 --> 00:19:40.675
use as defined in note two to Section 15
00:19:40.675 --> 00:19:43.954
of base metals and similar goods of
00:19:43.954 --> 00:19:47.619
plastic in Chapter 39. If you have plain
00:19:47.619 --> 00:19:53.119
screws, they would stay classified as a
00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:55.611
screw. In the picture you have several
00:19:55.611 --> 00:19:57.923
items that would be considered parts of
00:19:57.923 --> 00:20:07.167
general use. If you wanted a rifting
00:20:07.167 --> 00:20:10.145
conversation, ask the difference between
00:20:10.145 --> 00:20:15.122
a bolt and a screw. It will blow you
00:20:15.122 --> 00:20:18.829
mind with the differences. For my
00:20:18.829 --> 00:20:34.831
purposes we end up seeing standard bolts
00:20:34.831 --> 00:20:36.321
and screws, in most cases it's not considered a part, it would be part of general use.
00:20:36.321 --> 00:20:36.322

00:20:36.322 --> 00:20:37.764
This is one of the more important
00:20:37.764 --> 00:20:42.958
slides of the the whole presentation.
00:20:42.958 --> 00:20:50.359
You've heard me reference Chapter 90
00:20:50.359 --> 00:20:53.270
note seven of this presentation. Note
00:20:53.270 --> 00:20:58.108
seven describes the only goods that can
00:20:58.108 --> 00:21:02.424
go into 9032. Part A describes man
00:21:02.424 --> 00:21:08.331
stats, humidity regulators and therm
00:21:08.331 --> 00:21:15.460
chats.
00:21:15.460 --> 00:21:18.702
Controlling for flow, level, pressure
00:21:18.702 --> 00:21:21.797
or other variables of liquids or gases
00:21:21.797 --> 00:21:26.527
or for automatically controlling
00:21:26.527 --> 00:21:29.297
temperature which varies according to
00:21:29.297 --> 00:21:32.111
the factor to be automatically
00:21:32.111 --> 00:21:35.961
controlled. Then part B is automatic
00:21:35.961 --> 00:21:45.267
regulators of electrical quantities and
00:21:45.267 --> 00:21:48.907
instruments or apparatus for
00:21:48.907 --> 00:21:51.554
automatically controlling non electrical
00:21:51.554 --> 00:22:01.609
quantities the operation of which
00:22:01.609 --> 00:22:11.362
dependses on an electrical phenomenon.
00:22:11.362 --> 00:22:15.271
In accordance with note 7A, this
00:22:15.271 --> 00:22:23.893
covers instruments and apparatus for
00:22:23.893 --> 00:22:26.175
automatically controlling the flow,
00:22:26.175 --> 00:22:29.023
level, pressure or other variables of
00:22:29.023 --> 00:22:36.953
liquids gases or for controlling the
00:22:36.953 --> 00:22:46.111
temperature. They consist of the
00:22:46.111 --> 00:22:50.929
following devices, a device for
00:22:50.929 --> 00:22:54.859
measuring, the control device which
00:22:54.859 --> 00:22:56.706
compares the measured value with the
00:22:56.706 --> 00:23:01.835
desired value and actuates the device.
00:23:01.835 --> 00:23:04.707
C is the starting, stopping, or
00:23:04.707 --> 00:23:06.583
operating the device.
00:23:06.583 --> 00:23:14.406
An apparatus within the meaning of
00:23:14.406 --> 00:23:19.645
note 7A consists of one of these three
00:23:19.645 --> 00:23:22.739
devices forming a single entity or in
00:23:22.739 --> 00:23:26.739
accordance with note three to this
00:23:26.739 --> 00:23:30.207
Chapter 7B is very similar to 7A. Just
00:23:30.207 --> 00:23:32.051
has a slight variation.
00:23:32.051 --> 00:23:36.807
In these cases the devices consist of
00:23:36.807 --> 00:23:39.703
a measuring device, a sensing device,
00:23:39.703 --> 00:23:43.029
converter, resistance probe, et cetera
00:23:43.029 --> 00:23:45.671
which determines the actual value of the
00:23:45.671 --> 00:23:49.124
variable to be controlled and converted
00:23:49.124 --> 00:23:54.143
it to an electrical signal. B,
00:23:54.143 --> 00:24:01.937
electrical control device which gives a
00:24:01.937 --> 00:24:05.931
signal and then C, the starting,
00:24:05.931 --> 00:24:08.743
stopping or operating of a device.
00:24:08.743 --> 00:24:15.707
Sometimes rely systems which supplies in
00:24:15.707 --> 00:24:19.274
accordance with the central received.
00:24:19.274 --> 00:24:39.459
An atomattic regulator within the
00:24:39.459 --> 00:24:40.031
meaning of 7B consists of one of the devices described above or in accordance with note three.
00:24:40.031 --> 00:24:45.801
If they do not com form to the
00:24:45.801 --> 00:24:49.649
definitions outlines above these devices
00:24:49.649 --> 00:24:55.742
are to be classified as follows --
00:24:55.742 --> 00:25:01.208
electric measuring devices general fall
00:25:01.208 --> 00:25:11.713
until 9025, 9026 or 9030. Electrical
00:25:11.713 --> 00:25:14.806
control devices are to be classified in
00:25:14.806 --> 00:25:19.987
this heading as incomplete automatically
00:25:19.987 --> 00:25:24.493
controlling instruments or apparatus,
00:25:24.493 --> 00:25:28.183
stopping, starting or operating devices
00:25:28.183 --> 00:25:36.495
are generally classified in heading
00:25:36.495 --> 00:25:36.496
8536.
00:25:36.496 --> 00:25:41.176
This heading excludes cut outs com
00:25:41.176 --> 00:25:53.775
binds in a single housing with a voltage
00:25:53.775 --> 00:25:59.614
regulator or current regulator and
00:25:59.614 --> 00:26:06.086
programmable.
00:26:06.086 --> 00:26:09.239
Note three is unless the context
00:26:09.239 --> 00:26:14.149
otherwise requires composite machines
00:26:14.149 --> 00:26:16.401
consisting of two or more machines
00:26:16.401 --> 00:26:19.988
fitting together to form a whole and
00:26:19.988 --> 00:26:22.213
other machines designed for the purpose
00:26:22.213 --> 00:26:25.612
of performing two or more complementing
00:26:25.612 --> 00:26:27.804
or alternative functions are to be
00:26:27.804 --> 00:26:30.459
classified as if consisting only of that
00:26:30.459 --> 00:26:34.614
component or as being that machine which
00:26:34.614 --> 00:26:39.436
performs the principal function.
00:26:39.436 --> 00:26:43.399
And where a machine consists of
00:26:43.399 --> 00:26:46.581
individual components intended to
00:26:46.581 --> 00:26:50.552
contribute together to a clearly defined
00:26:50.552 --> 00:26:57.895
function covered by one of the functions
00:26:57.895 --> 00:26:59.525
in Chapter 84 or 85 would contribute to
00:26:59.525 --> 00:27:00.619
the heading of that function.
00:27:00.619 --> 00:27:03.988
I will get into a few case studies.
00:27:03.988 --> 00:27:07.677
I'm going to run through these quickly
00:27:07.677 --> 00:27:13.040
but I'm hoping you'll see a common
00:27:13.040 --> 00:27:15.059
trend. In the first one we have a ruling
00:27:15.059 --> 00:27:24.367
that involves a turbo sub assembly.
00:27:24.367 --> 00:27:31.740
Heading 9032 and 8537 are the primary
00:27:31.740 --> 00:27:38.435
headings in this case.
00:27:38.435 --> 00:27:47.866
The turbo sub assembly can only be use
00:27:47.866 --> 00:27:53.433
with the Rockwell model 1934. The
00:27:53.433 --> 00:27:56.831
devices consist of three circuit
00:27:56.831 --> 00:27:59.211
assemblies and are joined to a face
00:27:59.211 --> 00:27:59.838
plate.
00:27:59.838 --> 00:28:13.614
The 1394T01 is the sub asumably CPU.
00:28:13.614 --> 00:28:23.399
Then you have the 1394 drive module.
00:28:23.399 --> 00:28:29.947
Then the RIO plug card is an optional
00:28:29.947 --> 00:28:35.619
module that allows the model 1394 sub
00:28:35.619 --> 00:28:39.479
assembly to communicate with the
00:28:39.479 --> 00:28:44.304
Rockwell automation IO network.
00:28:44.304 --> 00:28:48.405
Automatic regulators are connected to
00:28:48.405 --> 00:28:55.429
an electrical, pneumonic, or hydraulic
00:28:55.429 --> 00:28:58.492
actuator, which brings the controlled
00:28:58.492 --> 00:29:06.626
variable back to the desired value.
00:29:06.626 --> 00:29:09.364
You have a part that can only be used
00:29:09.364 --> 00:29:11.272
with that motion controller and is
00:29:11.272 --> 00:29:13.899
actually a primary operator of the
00:29:13.899 --> 00:29:15.968
device.
00:29:15.968 --> 00:29:23.653
Heading 8537 is within Section 16 note
00:29:23.653 --> 00:29:26.708
1M, provides that the section does not
00:29:26.708 --> 00:29:30.904
cover articles of Chapter 90. If an
00:29:30.904 --> 00:29:35.309
item is described in Chapter 90, it
00:29:35.309 --> 00:29:40.935
cannot be classified in 8537. This was
00:29:40.935 --> 00:29:51.055
found in 9032 so it can only be used
00:29:51.055 --> 00:29:54.218
with the Rockwell model motion
00:29:54.218 --> 00:29:56.843
controller and is considered a part. It
00:29:56.843 --> 00:30:03.590
was classified 9032.90.60.
00:30:03.590 --> 00:30:05.963
The next case study was an application
00:30:05.963 --> 00:30:08.935
for further review of a protest for
00:30:08.935 --> 00:30:12.431
blank controllers. Classification of 22
00:30:12.431 --> 00:30:14.189
blank control devices used with
00:30:14.189 --> 00:30:21.560
electronically heated bedding.
00:30:21.560 --> 00:30:25.337
The blank controller provides
00:30:25.337 --> 00:30:29.086
electricity to the blanket heating wire
00:30:29.086 --> 00:30:31.771
but do not receive or measure
00:30:31.771 --> 00:30:35.745
temperature. The controls have a micro
00:30:35.745 --> 00:30:40.464
controller, do not contain relays or
00:30:40.464 --> 00:30:46.749
thermostats. The user adjusts the heat
00:30:46.749 --> 00:30:50.565
settings.
00:30:50.565 --> 00:30:52.718
The blanket controllers were
00:30:52.718 --> 00:31:05.180
originally under 9032.10. What did CV P
00:31:05.180 --> 00:31:08.964
control? The blanket controllers do not
00:31:08.964 --> 00:31:15.505
meet the requirements set forth in note
00:31:15.505 --> 00:31:20.685
7B Chapter 90. The blank controllers
00:31:20.685 --> 00:31:22.963
cannot be classified in 9032.
00:31:22.963 --> 00:31:28.871
Note 1M to Section 16 will not be
00:31:28.871 --> 00:31:31.657
applicable and the classification number
00:31:31.657 --> 00:31:36.687
the headings in Chapter 85 can be
00:31:36.687 --> 00:31:37.217
considered.
00:31:37.217 --> 00:31:55.450
The blank yell controllers were found
00:31:55.450 --> 00:31:56.315
to be in 8537.10.90. We're always keeping the note seven available.
00:31:56.315 --> 00:31:59.937
Read and reread note seven to make sure
00:31:59.937 --> 00:32:01.120
it's present in the item that you have
00:32:01.120 --> 00:32:01.937
in front of you.
00:32:01.937 --> 00:32:05.842
Next case study involves the
00:32:05.842 --> 00:32:13.934
classification of a terra tech OPIS
00:32:13.934 --> 00:32:18.527
controller, a liquid dosing system
00:32:18.527 --> 00:32:22.139
incorporating on farm hardware,
00:32:22.139 --> 00:32:24.587
software, and an app that measures the
00:32:24.587 --> 00:32:31.320
flow of water to the livestock.
00:32:31.320 --> 00:32:36.186
The OPIS controller ensures the
00:32:36.186 --> 00:32:43.002
accurate supplementation of livestock.
00:32:43.002 --> 00:32:47.503
It's adjusted via a touch screen or with
00:32:47.503 --> 00:32:51.596
the use of an app.
00:32:51.596 --> 00:33:11.841
Apparatus of heading 90.32 contains a
00:33:11.841 --> 00:33:11.842
device for measuring the variable.
00:33:11.842 --> 00:33:15.089
When we start looking at an item, we
00:33:15.089 --> 00:33:20.970
must start with Chapter 90, note seven.
00:33:20.970 --> 00:33:23.528
The flow of the water is allowed to
00:33:23.528 --> 00:33:25.115
pass freely through the system and is
00:33:25.115 --> 00:33:27.628
not regulated in any way. There is a
00:33:27.628 --> 00:33:30.566
flow meter which reads the amount of
00:33:30.566 --> 00:33:33.433
water but does not increase or decrease
00:33:33.433 --> 00:33:36.251
the flow. It reads the amount. Once the
00:33:36.251 --> 00:33:39.034
water amount is read, the control meter
00:33:39.034 --> 00:33:45.219
will determine how much supplements to
00:33:45.219 --> 00:33:45.658
add to the water.
00:33:45.658 --> 00:33:49.721
It's providing a specific amount of
00:33:49.721 --> 00:33:53.095
supplement to the system. This amount
00:33:53.095 --> 00:33:55.595
will change with the amount of flow.
00:33:55.595 --> 00:34:00.747
Finally, the machine is not turning on
00:34:00.747 --> 00:34:04.096
or off based on a set of parameters.
00:34:04.096 --> 00:34:07.093
It's performing a more sophisticated
00:34:07.093 --> 00:34:10.189
function based on the complex algorithms
00:34:10.189 --> 00:34:13.971
build into the software.
00:34:13.971 --> 00:34:19.843
For this one, the apparatus of heading
00:34:19.843 --> 00:34:27.901
9032 needs to contain a device for
00:34:27.901 --> 00:34:30.061
measuring the variable, a control
00:34:30.061 --> 00:34:33.530
device, and a starting stopping device.
00:34:33.530 --> 00:34:36.693
The machine is not turning on or off
00:34:36.693 --> 00:34:40.187
based on a set of parameters, the device
00:34:40.187 --> 00:34:44.748
fails note seven and is not precluded
00:34:44.748 --> 00:34:49.003
from classification in Section 16. You
00:34:49.003 --> 00:35:11.747
have the controller classified
00:35:11.747 --> 00:35:11.748
8479.89.9499.
00:35:11.748 --> 00:35:11.750

00:35:11.750 --> 00:35:17.004
We'll do one more case study.
00:35:17.004 --> 00:35:18.593
We have the classification of a
00:35:18.593 --> 00:35:24.183
manifold and a tank fittings package. In
00:35:24.183 --> 00:35:32.095
New York N006439 CV P classified the
00:35:32.095 --> 00:35:39.469
tank fitting package in sub heading
00:35:39.469 --> 00:35:41.071
9032.20. Facts and considerations, the
00:35:41.071 --> 00:35:44.663
item is a constant pressure manifold
00:35:44.663 --> 00:35:51.968
used for water well systems, the volume
00:35:51.968 --> 00:35:57.125
of the water must contain constant. As
00:35:57.125 --> 00:35:59.663
the water drops, so does the pressure in
00:35:59.663 --> 00:36:01.844
the water line. When the pressure drops
00:36:01.844 --> 00:36:07.163
to a preset level, a switch is activated
00:36:07.163 --> 00:36:08.939
this starts the water pump.
00:36:08.939 --> 00:36:12.466
As water is pumped into the storage
00:36:12.466 --> 00:36:15.937
tank, the volume in the tank increases
00:36:15.937 --> 00:36:19.095
and so does the pressure in the water
00:36:19.095 --> 00:36:21.691
line. The pressure acting on the switch
00:36:21.691 --> 00:36:23.551
will increase to the preset level and
00:36:23.551 --> 00:36:26.972
turn off the switch to the pump. If the
00:36:26.972 --> 00:36:30.721
switch does not turn off. The pressure
00:36:30.721 --> 00:36:33.377
release valve will protect the system
00:36:33.377 --> 00:36:33.843
from damage.
00:36:33.843 --> 00:36:36.499
The pressure switch ensures that the
00:36:36.499 --> 00:36:39.102
water pressure in the system remains
00:36:39.102 --> 00:36:41.715
constant and sends instructions to the
00:36:41.715 --> 00:36:49.034
pump to maintain pressure.
00:36:49.034 --> 00:36:54.416
When it comes down to this, always
00:36:54.416 --> 00:36:58.344
refer to note seven to Chapter 90. Even
00:36:58.344 --> 00:37:02.065
if it's a potential for consideration,
00:37:02.065 --> 00:37:03.562
go to Chapter 90 note seven.
00:37:03.562 --> 00:37:06.880
There's a constant pressure manifold
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:10.625
contained in the device, a control
00:37:10.625 --> 00:37:15.881
device, and a starting stopping device.
00:37:15.881 --> 00:37:18.225
The AFR confirmed the constant pressure
00:37:18.225 --> 00:37:23.666
manifold remain classified in Heading
00:37:23.666 --> 00:37:27.131
9032 and specifically in Heading
00:37:27.131 --> 00:37:31.884
9032.20. That's a good ruling for man
00:37:31.884 --> 00:37:35.098
stats there.
00:37:35.098 --> 00:37:38.880
Now we've gone through all of the sub
00:37:38.880 --> 00:37:45.526
headings in 9023 and went through some
00:37:45.526 --> 00:37:50.188
quick case study. Now we'll recap some
00:37:50.188 --> 00:37:52.685
of the important stuff we've gone over
00:37:52.685 --> 00:37:53.885
so far.
00:37:53.885 --> 00:37:57.441
Section 16 note 1M, the section does
00:37:57.441 --> 00:38:00.224
not cover articles of Chapter 90. Many
00:38:00.224 --> 00:38:06.193
times the items that did not fall within
00:38:06.193 --> 00:38:11.251
Heading 9032 will fall to 85 but you
00:38:11.251 --> 00:38:14.758
must get past note 1M first. Always
00:38:14.758 --> 00:38:18.353
start with Chapter 90. Note 1F, this
00:38:18.353 --> 00:38:21.661
does not cover parts of general use as
00:38:21.661 --> 00:38:26.509
defined in note two to Section 15.
00:38:26.509 --> 00:38:36.873
However, articles specifically
00:38:36.873 --> 00:38:46.069
designed for use in implants, surgical,
00:38:46.069 --> 00:38:50.070
dental or veterinary sciences are to be
00:38:50.070 --> 00:38:59.503
classified in 9021. Chapter 90, note
00:38:59.503 --> 00:39:02.317
two, this is highlighting the different
00:39:02.317 --> 00:39:05.946
provisions.
00:39:05.946 --> 00:39:08.003
Then we have the most important part
00:39:08.003 --> 00:39:12.725
of the whole presentation here, the
00:39:12.725 --> 00:39:15.163
Chapter 90 note seven. This allows you
00:39:15.163 --> 00:39:19.723
to classify within Heading 9032 or it
00:39:19.723 --> 00:39:24.043
ends up getting kicked out of 9032. Also
00:39:24.043 --> 00:39:26.907
read the terms of part A and part B to
00:39:26.907 --> 00:39:31.256
help you make that determination.
00:39:31.256 --> 00:39:33.319
Always check your explanatory notes
00:39:33.319 --> 00:39:38.049
when you're classifying goods in Heading
00:39:38.049 --> 00:39:40.037
9032, part A is associated with the
00:39:40.037 --> 00:39:45.943
device for measuring, control device,
00:39:45.943 --> 00:39:48.781
and starting, stopping or operating
00:39:48.781 --> 00:39:49.382
device.
00:39:49.382 --> 00:39:52.857
Note 7B, similar but has slight
00:39:52.857 --> 00:39:55.851
adjustments to allow tomorrow the
00:39:55.851 --> 00:40:06.880
electrical nature. Similar, they just
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:08.652
function in different ways, make sure
00:40:08.652 --> 00:40:15.291
you're looking not only at note 7
00:40:15.291 --> 00:40:17.165
chapter 90 but also to the explanatory
00:40:17.165 --> 00:40:19.632
notes that coincide with it.
00:40:19.632 --> 00:40:22.634
Now we'll move on to a few knowledge
00:40:22.634 --> 00:40:23.105
checks.
00:40:23.105 --> 00:40:25.916
The screws that we have shown here are
00:40:25.916 --> 00:40:29.673
specifically used to mount thermostats
00:40:29.673 --> 00:40:34.920
to the base wall plate, would these be
00:40:34.920 --> 00:40:38.448
classified in Heading 9032?
00:40:38.448 --> 00:40:44.167
Very good! According to Chapter 90,
00:40:44.167 --> 00:40:46.909
note 1F this does not cover parts of
00:40:46.909 --> 00:40:51.476
general use. The screws do nothing other
00:40:51.476 --> 00:40:55.037
than hold the item to the wall. It's not
00:40:55.037 --> 00:40:57.794
affecting the operation and the screws
00:40:57.794 --> 00:41:03.720
can be used for other reasons.
00:41:03.720 --> 00:41:06.133
What is the most important note to
00:41:06.133 --> 00:41:09.697
determine whether a good falls within
00:41:09.697 --> 00:41:14.137
Heading 9032?
00:41:14.137 --> 00:41:18.823
Note seven. Love it! Always go back
00:41:18.823 --> 00:41:25.379
and read through your chapter and
00:41:25.379 --> 00:41:28.383
explanatory notes. But note seven is the
00:41:28.383 --> 00:41:29.126
key component here.
00:41:29.126 --> 00:41:32.069
What three elements must be present in
00:41:32.069 --> 00:41:36.505
the device for it to be classified in
00:41:36.505 --> 00:41:43.671
Heading 9032?
00:41:43.671 --> 00:41:47.230
Technically there's two answers here,
00:41:47.230 --> 00:41:49.127
there's part A and part B, which are
00:41:49.127 --> 00:41:51.605
slightly different, but as you're seeing
00:41:51.605 --> 00:41:55.284
in the chat, they're similar, part A,
00:41:55.284 --> 00:41:58.580
device for measuring, control device,
00:41:58.580 --> 00:42:10.878
starting, stopping, or operating device.
00:42:10.878 --> 00:42:17.355
Part B is electrical control device,
00:42:17.355 --> 00:42:21.353
measuring and starting stopping or
00:42:21.353 --> 00:42:23.041
operating device. This presentation
00:42:23.041 --> 00:42:27.480
should be posted within a few months.
00:42:27.480 --> 00:42:32.793
I've also put together a few links
00:42:32.793 --> 00:42:34.381
that will help with general information.
00:42:34.381 --> 00:42:41.101
Cross is where all of the New York and
00:42:41.101 --> 00:42:50.819
headquarters rulings are posted. C BP
00:42:50.819 --> 00:42:56.913
DOT govern is also a great place to find
00:42:56.913 --> 00:43:00.668
information.
00:43:00.668 --> 00:43:04.597
The changes to the 301 exclusions are
00:43:04.597 --> 00:43:07.911
hyperlinked in the newest version of the
00:43:07.911 --> 00:43:11.074
tariff. When you click on that, it takes
00:43:11.074 --> 00:43:17.289
you to the corresponding 301 number. You
00:43:17.289 --> 00:43:19.821
don't get that with the paper version.
00:43:19.821 --> 00:43:23.349
It's nice to utilize the online version.
00:43:23.349 --> 00:43:27.732
Every once in a while you'll notice the
00:43:27.732 --> 00:43:31.701
rates might change. Always try to
00:43:31.701 --> 00:43:33.881
utilize the most up-to-date version
00:43:33.881 --> 00:43:35.883
there.
00:43:35.883 --> 00:43:40.451
These are just a few reminders of the
00:43:40.451 --> 00:43:45.323
tools available to use. General rules of
00:43:45.323 --> 00:43:49.474
interpretation, additional U.S. rules of
00:43:49.474 --> 00:43:53.355
interpretation, chapter, section, and
00:43:53.355 --> 00:43:56.324
sub headings notes, additional U.S.
00:43:56.324 --> 00:44:03.262
notes and static capital notes,
00:44:03.262 --> 00:44:09.883
explanatory notes. Cross is out there to
00:44:09.883 --> 00:44:12.290
help guide, it's not the end all but
00:44:12.290 --> 00:44:13.885
these are different tools that you can
00:44:13.885 --> 00:44:18.673
utilize and once you end up taking all
00:44:18.673 --> 00:44:20.697
of these together you can get a good
00:44:20.697 --> 00:44:27.731
feel for your classification.
00:44:27.731 --> 00:44:30.601
I'll try to go back quickly and see if
00:44:30.601 --> 00:44:41.684
there are any questions I can help with.
00:44:41.684 --> 00:44:41.685

00:44:41.685 --> 00:44:45.183
Looks like there was just audio stuff
00:44:45.183 --> 00:44:46.200
in the beginning that with difficult.
00:44:46.200 --> 00:44:48.979
What was the pneumatic ruling number?
00:44:48.979 --> 00:44:51.162
Do you remember at what point --
00:44:51.162 --> 00:44:53.601
>> Someone provided that one. Before
00:44:53.601 --> 00:44:56.789
that there was a question about the CR
00:44:56.789 --> 00:45:03.128
ruling mentions, that was on slide
00:45:03.128 --> 00:45:03.129
eight.
00:45:03.129 --> 00:45:04.140
>> JASON CHRISTIE: That is been taken
00:45:04.140 --> 00:45:06.014
care of?
00:45:06.014 --> 00:45:09.041
>> Yes. There was a separate one on
00:45:09.041 --> 00:45:11.324
slide eight, what was the ruling number
00:45:11.324 --> 00:45:13.228
mentioned there?
00:45:13.228 --> 00:45:21.355
>> JASON CHRISTIE: So that one is the
00:45:21.355 --> 00:45:23.420
temperature control boards, that was New
00:45:23.420 --> 00:45:29.985
York 878581. That one is definitely an
00:45:29.985 --> 00:45:32.853
oldie but a goodie.
00:45:32.853 --> 00:45:33.170

00:45:33.170 --> 00:45:36.355
>> Then there was a question on slide
00:45:36.355 --> 00:45:38.515
11, what about indicator switches?
00:45:38.515 --> 00:45:41.225
These are sometimes called pressure
00:45:41.225 --> 00:45:43.545
switches but they don't have the ability
00:45:43.545 --> 00:45:47.447
to reset themselves, they function to
00:45:47.447 --> 00:45:48.837
provide indicator.
00:45:48.837 --> 00:45:50.321
>> JASON CHRISTIE: That would be a
00:45:50.321 --> 00:45:54.111
good question if you can email it to me.
00:45:54.111 --> 00:45:58.539
I'd have to look up the indicator switch
00:45:58.539 --> 00:46:03.203
and depending on the capabilities
00:46:03.203 --> 00:46:06.320
determines whether it will be classified
00:46:06.320 --> 00:46:09.859
in Heading 9032. In the trade pressure
00:46:09.859 --> 00:46:18.142
regulators, sometimes they'll 84, other
00:46:18.142 --> 00:46:21.087
times they're 9023. Sometimes the tariff
00:46:21.087 --> 00:46:24.859
terms don't coincide with the trade
00:46:24.859 --> 00:46:27.919
terms, we need to go with the tariff
00:46:27.919 --> 00:46:29.981
terms, if you want to email me
00:46:29.981 --> 00:46:31.387
separately that will work.
00:46:31.387 --> 00:46:33.417
>> There was a question for you to
00:46:33.417 --> 00:46:37.795
repeat the ruling numbers on slide 13.
00:46:37.795 --> 00:46:40.881
>> JASON CHRISTIE: Absolutely. The
00:46:40.881 --> 00:46:48.795
first example that I did was for
00:46:48.795 --> 00:46:48.796
N296013.
00:46:48.796 --> 00:46:52.389
That was the voltage regulators. And
00:46:52.389 --> 00:46:57.007
then the other example was with the
00:46:57.007 --> 00:47:06.478
voltage regular, L82286.
00:47:06.478 --> 00:47:09.457
>> The next one on slide 14, what
00:47:09.457 --> 00:47:14.763
about the smart thermostats like Google
00:47:14.763 --> 00:47:18.493
nest, I see some ruling that smart therm
00:47:18.493 --> 00:47:26.515
chats are classified under 8517?
00:47:26.515 --> 00:47:29.453
>> JASON CHRISTIE: Essentially when
00:47:29.453 --> 00:47:32.228
they're communicating wirelessly -- what
00:47:32.228 --> 00:47:34.761
we have to look for is to determine the
00:47:34.761 --> 00:47:37.209
functionality and what is actually being
00:47:37.209 --> 00:47:41.356
done by the thermostat and what is being
00:47:41.356 --> 00:47:43.797
done as far as relaying information. For
00:47:43.797 --> 00:47:47.951
some of those we'd have to look at the
00:47:47.951 --> 00:47:50.076
functionality and everything and see
00:47:50.076 --> 00:47:54.950
what capabilities the device itself has.
00:47:54.950 --> 00:48:03.077
Depending on how old the rulings are, I
00:48:03.077 --> 00:48:07.110
know 8517 was being over utilized.
00:48:07.110 --> 00:48:09.455
Anything that had Bluetooth
00:48:09.455 --> 00:48:16.542
capabilities, 8517 but Bluetooth is in
00:48:16.542 --> 00:48:21.647
so many different items that it becomes
00:48:21.647 --> 00:48:26.604
a secondary feature. Nice have but
00:48:26.604 --> 00:48:30.547
they're not all necessarily in 8517. I'd
00:48:30.547 --> 00:48:34.641
have to look up that particular ruling
00:48:34.641 --> 00:48:38.866
and see when those were issued and if
00:48:38.866 --> 00:48:40.485
it's still relevant based off of the
00:48:40.485 --> 00:48:41.269
abilities it has.
00:48:41.269 --> 00:48:45.872
If it's a true thermostat that can
00:48:45.872 --> 00:48:50.392
still connected to -- contains all three
00:48:50.392 --> 00:48:54.396
of the elements, it has the ability to
00:48:54.396 --> 00:48:56.669
provide the temperature, the ability to
00:48:56.669 --> 00:48:58.178
do the starting and stopping, all that
00:48:58.178 --> 00:49:01.670
stuff, then we would have to look at
00:49:01.670 --> 00:49:03.448
that. But I don't have that one in front
00:49:03.448 --> 00:49:05.984
of me at this time.
00:49:05.984 --> 00:49:13.235
>> Okay. What was the one regarding
00:49:13.235 --> 00:49:15.579
9032.89.6060. I'm not sure if it was on
00:49:15.579 --> 00:49:17.330
this slide if you had mentioned
00:49:17.330 --> 00:49:21.138
something. It just says what was the one
00:49:21.138 --> 00:49:29.331
regarding this.
00:49:29.331 --> 00:49:29.590

00:49:29.590 --> 00:49:33.299
>> JASON CHRISTIE: That would include
00:49:33.299 --> 00:49:42.950
the mass flow controller, that was one
00:49:42.950 --> 00:49:42.951
H028098.
00:49:42.951 --> 00:49:45.107
What's nice with that ruling is a lot
00:49:45.107 --> 00:49:48.327
of times you'll see the mass flow
00:49:48.327 --> 00:49:51.235
controllers that do the control as well,
00:49:51.235 --> 00:49:54.518
that's where it becomes a 9032 item
00:49:54.518 --> 00:49:56.893
whereas if it's just reading and
00:49:56.893 --> 00:49:58.953
providing the measurements, then it's
00:49:58.953 --> 00:50:02.297
typically just a mass flow measuring
00:50:02.297 --> 00:50:06.173
device, which would be more of a 9026
00:50:06.173 --> 00:50:06.860
device.
00:50:06.860 --> 00:50:08.892
>> Okay. There's a question for you to
00:50:08.892 --> 00:50:15.825
go back to slide 15. There's nothing
00:50:15.825 --> 00:50:18.145
else. The next question is what is
00:50:18.145 --> 00:50:20.426
considered to be a complete system?
00:50:20.426 --> 00:50:25.991
>> JASON CHRISTIE: That can vary. I've
00:50:25.991 --> 00:50:29.481
seen a few that are just everything
00:50:29.481 --> 00:50:32.513
housed together. When you think like a
00:50:32.513 --> 00:50:37.362
thermostat, it's one portion of your
00:50:37.362 --> 00:50:39.830
heating and cooling system. You still
00:50:39.830 --> 00:50:47.580
need a furnace and other articles. The
00:50:47.580 --> 00:50:50.550
complete system is everything housed in
00:50:50.550 --> 00:50:54.984
one item being imported. So if it has
00:50:54.984 --> 00:50:58.234
not only the ability to turn something
00:50:58.234 --> 00:51:01.424
on and off but maybe contains the item
00:51:01.424 --> 00:51:04.115
that can be turned on and off is it is
00:51:04.115 --> 00:51:08.016
all put together in one complete system.
00:51:08.016 --> 00:51:08.017

00:51:08.017 --> 00:51:11.456
>> The next one came in on slide 22,
00:51:11.456 --> 00:51:13.557
could you define programmable
00:51:13.557 --> 00:51:21.639
controllers of 8537. Most thermostats
00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:22.669
can be programmable.
00:51:22.669 --> 00:51:25.980
>> JASON CHRISTIE: I think I'd like to
00:51:25.980 --> 00:51:30.239
avoid defining controllers. I won't want
00:51:30.239 --> 00:51:32.205
to misspeak and include something that
00:51:32.205 --> 00:51:36.209
would not necessarily go in 8537 so if
00:51:36.209 --> 00:51:38.896
you want to send me something specific,
00:51:38.896 --> 00:51:41.049
I can work with Carl and get you a
00:51:41.049 --> 00:51:43.110
response back but I don't want to speak
00:51:43.110 --> 00:51:46.301
for him because when it comes to
00:51:46.301 --> 00:51:48.983
thermostats it really comes down to --
00:51:48.983 --> 00:51:53.236
they do fit the Heading 9032 based off
00:51:53.236 --> 00:51:56.076
of note seven to Chapter 90, because it
00:51:56.076 --> 00:51:59.113
has the three elements there it
00:51:59.113 --> 00:52:12.924
eliminates the class fiction to getting
00:52:12.924 --> 00:52:14.521
to -- it's going to come down to whether
00:52:14.521 --> 00:52:17.521
or not the device meets the terms of
00:52:17.521 --> 00:52:22.427
note seven to Chapter 90 because if it
00:52:22.427 --> 00:52:28.424
does, it cannot 8537 but if you're able
00:52:28.424 --> 00:52:34.454
to kick it out of 9023 then 8537 becomes
00:52:34.454 --> 00:52:36.647
one of the many different tariff
00:52:36.647 --> 00:52:39.269
headings that the item can go. A lot of
00:52:39.269 --> 00:52:41.893
times we see these in very close
00:52:41.893 --> 00:52:44.051
proximity.
00:52:44.051 --> 00:52:44.296

00:52:44.296 --> 00:52:47.678
>> Okay. The next one is asking if you
00:52:47.678 --> 00:52:49.241
can go back to slide 17 and give
00:52:49.241 --> 00:52:53.926
examples of parts falling under 9033.
00:52:53.926 --> 00:52:56.929
>> JASON CHRISTIE: 9033, we don't see
00:52:56.929 --> 00:53:01.832
a lot of parts going in here. I haven't
00:53:01.832 --> 00:53:06.459
done an analysis query recently on 9033
00:53:06.459 --> 00:53:08.233
but most of the time -- at least with
00:53:08.233 --> 00:53:11.864
the headings that ideal with, which is
00:53:11.864 --> 00:53:14.179
about half of Chapter 90 and few
00:53:14.179 --> 00:53:17.709
headings in 84, most of my parts
00:53:17.709 --> 00:53:20.923
provisions that I have with those, the
00:53:20.923 --> 00:53:22.769
parts will fall and stay within those
00:53:22.769 --> 00:53:25.521
particular headings. So that's where
00:53:25.521 --> 00:53:28.701
most of my stuff ends up falling. I
00:53:28.701 --> 00:53:30.494
don't want to speak for everyone on
00:53:30.494 --> 00:53:33.370
that. I know different people have other
00:53:33.370 --> 00:53:35.834
Chapter 90 merchandise but 9033 would be
00:53:35.834 --> 00:53:37.643
if you're literally looking at something
00:53:37.643 --> 00:53:41.085
and it can't fall anywhere else.
00:53:41.085 --> 00:53:44.025
It's definitely Chapter 90 but it's
00:53:44.025 --> 00:53:49.209
kinds of like the basket provision for
00:53:49.209 --> 00:53:55.205
parts. I don't have go to examples
00:53:55.205 --> 00:53:57.863
because most of the time you're able to
00:53:57.863 --> 00:54:01.111
fit the parts within the headings
00:54:01.111 --> 00:54:01.976
themselves.
00:54:01.976 --> 00:54:09.829
>> There is a request to see slide 40.
00:54:09.829 --> 00:54:09.830

00:54:09.830 --> 00:54:10.110

00:54:10.110 --> 00:54:12.456
>> JASON CHRISTIE: This is out of the
00:54:12.456 --> 00:54:16.096
explanatory notes. If you open those,
00:54:16.096 --> 00:54:18.281
this is what you're going to be looking
00:54:18.281 --> 00:54:22.304
for. Again, the biggest determining
00:54:22.304 --> 00:54:25.299
factor for classification is that
00:54:25.299 --> 00:54:27.555
Chapter 90 note seven. The explanatory
00:54:27.555 --> 00:54:32.237
notes coincide with those and define
00:54:32.237 --> 00:54:34.990
what the measuring device is, the
00:54:34.990 --> 00:54:37.645
control device, the starting, stopping
00:54:37.645 --> 00:54:41.395
or operating device. You get a little
00:54:41.395 --> 00:54:42.864
bit more information there.
00:54:42.864 --> 00:54:48.149
>> Okay. Next question is, do
00:54:48.149 --> 00:54:51.961
specially fitted parts fall in chapter
00:54:51.961 --> 00:54:53.086
note 2B?
00:54:53.086 --> 00:54:54.181
>> JASON CHRISTIE: Many times they
00:54:54.181 --> 00:54:58.175
will especially if they're designated
00:54:58.175 --> 00:55:00.257
for that part and can only be used for
00:55:00.257 --> 00:55:00.396
that.
00:55:00.396 --> 00:55:03.368
If you have a thermostat cover and it
00:55:03.368 --> 00:55:07.139
has specific holes, a specific shape,
00:55:07.139 --> 00:55:09.768
it's bent in a certain way then it can
00:55:09.768 --> 00:55:12.953
only be used for a thermostat, then it
00:55:12.953 --> 00:55:17.664
will be considered a part of a
00:55:17.664 --> 00:55:19.663
thermostat. If it's just a flat piece
00:55:19.663 --> 00:55:22.173
of plastic, it doesn't have enough
00:55:22.173 --> 00:55:24.963
characteristics to push it and it would
00:55:24.963 --> 00:55:28.749
probably be another article in Chapter
00:55:28.749 --> 00:55:31.179
39 but it would have to have enough
00:55:31.179 --> 00:55:33.835
shape, size, holes to be considered a
00:55:33.835 --> 00:55:34.056
part.
00:55:34.056 --> 00:55:36.423
>> The next one, regarding the
00:55:36.423 --> 00:55:45.397
explanatory note 9032, is it possible
00:55:45.397 --> 00:55:47.644
that a single device can perform all
00:55:47.644 --> 00:55:51.088
three functions and meet the terms of
00:55:51.088 --> 00:55:54.465
9032? Is there a requirement that a
00:55:54.465 --> 00:55:56.865
composite good have three different
00:55:56.865 --> 00:55:58.526
requirements?
00:55:58.526 --> 00:56:00.465
>> JASON CHRISTIE: Going back to a
00:56:00.465 --> 00:56:03.953
thermostat, it's going to be
00:56:03.953 --> 00:56:05.493
continuously monitoring the temperature
00:56:05.493 --> 00:56:08.485
of the room. It's also going to have
00:56:08.485 --> 00:56:09.585
programming language that has a
00:56:09.585 --> 00:56:11.835
parameter set and when you have the
00:56:11.835 --> 00:56:14.994
temperature that gets too high, it will
00:56:14.994 --> 00:56:18.241
kick on the air conditioner, if it gets
00:56:18.241 --> 00:56:23.525
too low it will turn it off and so on.
00:56:23.525 --> 00:56:27.241
It should have those three elements but
00:56:27.241 --> 00:56:31.204
typically they're slightly different
00:56:31.204 --> 00:56:34.114
components with the one item.
00:56:34.114 --> 00:56:37.057
>> I see I few more questions have
00:56:37.057 --> 00:56:41.371
come in but we have to wrap it up so
00:56:41.371 --> 00:56:43.416
maybe if they can every mail you.
00:56:43.416 --> 00:56:46.676
>> JASON CHRISTIE: I put my email
00:56:46.676 --> 00:56:50.745
address on the slide. Feel free to email
00:56:50.745 --> 00:56:56.310
me with questions you have, I can start
00:56:56.310 --> 00:56:59.364
replying to emails and getting back to
00:56:59.364 --> 00:57:02.770
you pretty quickly.
00:57:02.770 --> 00:57:06.941
Just wanted to say thank you very much
00:57:06.941 --> 00:57:08.899
for listening and paying attention so
00:57:08.899 --> 00:57:12.082
much that you ended up getting your
00:57:12.082 --> 00:57:14.570
questions and answers correct during
00:57:14.570 --> 00:57:17.843
that portion. Again, feel free to email.
00:57:17.843 --> 00:57:19.613
I'm also in the office at times so if
00:57:19.613 --> 00:57:21.991
you want to give me a call, my number is
00:57:21.991 --> 00:57:24.747
also there and if I'm not available,
00:57:24.747 --> 00:57:32.677
feel free to reach out to NISA John
00:57:32.677 --> 00:57:35.217
Vischio and he can relay the information
00:57:35.217 --> 00:57:35.833
to me. Thank you.
00:57:35.833 --> 00:57:39.691
>> Great thank you, Mr. Christie and
00:57:39.691 --> 00:57:41.365
thank you to everyone for joining us
00:57:41.365 --> 00:57:45.199
today. We hope you found today's webinar
00:57:45.199 --> 00:57:48.425
informative. The continuing education
00:57:48.425 --> 00:57:51.433
credit was placed in the chat as well as
00:57:51.433 --> 00:57:53.499
the link to the website where the
00:57:53.499 --> 00:57:57.996
webinars past and present are posted.
00:57:57.996 --> 00:58:00.363
This concludes today's webinar and

00:58:10.644 --> 00:58:10.644
