Boilers; super-heated water boilers

HS v2017 Code: 840220

About boilers; super-heated water boilers

hs code 840220 covers the production of boilers and super-heated water boilers, which are essential components in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. These boilers play a crucial role in generating steam and hot water for heating, power generation, and various manufacturing processes. As a key part of the broader machinery and equipment industry, the 840220 category contributes significantly to the global economy by supporting the efficient operation of diverse sectors, from manufacturing to infrastructure development.

Production process

The production of boilers and super-heated water boilers typically involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, such as steel, cast iron, or specialized alloys, are carefully selected and prepared. The components, including the pressure vessel, heat exchangers, and control systems, are then fabricated using techniques like welding, casting, and machining. Rigorous quality control measures are implemented throughout the manufacturing process to ensure the boilers meet safety and performance standards. Finally, the assembled units undergo extensive testing and inspection before being delivered to customers.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of hs code 840220 boilers and super-heated water boilers include 720810 Flat-rolled products of iron or non-alloy steel, 722530 Other bars and rods of other alloy steel, and specialized components such as valves, pumps, and control systems. Additionally, the industry relies on skilled labor, advanced manufacturing equipment, and a robust supply chain to ensure the timely and efficient production of these critical components.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of hs code 840220 are boilers and super-heated water boilers, which are then consumed by a wide range of industries, including 841011 Hydraulic turbines and water wheels, 841199 Parts of steam or other vapor generating boilers, and 841919 Instantaneous or storage water heaters, non-electric. These boilers are essential for generating steam and hot water, which are used in power generation, industrial processes, and building heating and cooling systems.
