Machinery and mechanical appliances; evaporative air coolers

HS v2017 Code: 847960

About machinery and mechanical appliances; evaporative air coolers

hs code 847960 covers a diverse range of machinery and mechanical appliances, with a particular focus on evaporative air coolers. This industry plays a crucial role in the broader economy, providing essential cooling solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. Evaporative air coolers are an energy-efficient alternative to traditional air conditioning systems, making them an increasingly popular choice for regions with hot, dry climates.

Production process

The production of evaporative air coolers typically involves a combination of metalworking, plastics fabrication, and assembly processes. Key steps include the manufacture of the cooling pads, water distribution systems, and the outer housing. Automated machinery is often used to ensure consistent quality and high production volumes.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the 847960 industry include sheet metal, plastic components, electric motors, water pumps, and cooling media such as cellulose or synthetic fiber pads. Specialized manufacturing equipment, such as metal stamping machines and injection molding systems, are also essential for the production of these appliances. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce capable of assembling the various components into functional units.

Production outputs

The primary output of the 847960 industry is evaporative air coolers, which are used to provide cooling in a wide range of settings, from residential homes to large commercial and industrial facilities. The output of this industry may be consumed by other hs codes, such as 940510 Ceiling or wall fans, with a self-contained electric motor of an output not exceeding 125 W and 841520 Air conditioning machines, comprising a motor-driven fan and elements for changing the temperature and humidity, including those machines in which the humidity cannot be separately regulated.
