RE: The tariff classification of integrator power driver (static
converter) from China.
Dear Mr. Forman:
In your letter dated April 14, 1990, you requested a tariff
classification ruling .
The submitted literature describes the merchandise,
identified in your letter as the integrator power driver, model
2AO-IPD-S, Styles A and B, as an output component that accepts
low-level switch pulses from 2AX+INT series integrators and
produces high level pulses suitable for driving an
electromechanical totalizer. The input is rated at 15 V dc,
minimum, and the output at 24 V dc, maximum. The integrator
power driver appears to be a direct current converter by which
direct current is converted to a different voltage.
The applicable subheading for the integrator power driver,
2AO-IPD-S, will be 8504.40.0060 , Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTS), which provides for "Other static
converters." The rate of duty will be 3 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
