HS v2017 Code: 850211

About electric generating sets; with compression-ignition internal combustion piston engines (diesel or semi-diesel engines), of an output not exceeding 75kva

hs code 850211 covers electric generating sets powered by compression-ignition internal combustion piston engines, commonly known as diesel or semi-diesel engines, with an output not exceeding 75kVA. This industry plays a crucial role in providing reliable and efficient power solutions for a wide range of applications, from residential and commercial buildings to industrial facilities and remote locations. These generators are essential for ensuring uninterrupted power supply, particularly in areas with unstable or limited grid infrastructure.

Production process

The production of electric generating sets under hs code 850211 typically involves several key steps. First, the compression-ignition internal combustion piston engine is manufactured, which includes the engine block, crankshaft, pistons, and other critical components. The engine is then paired with an electric generator, which converts the mechanical energy produced by the engine into electrical energy. The generator is often coupled directly to the engine's crankshaft, ensuring efficient power transmission. Finally, the complete generating set is assembled, tested, and prepared for distribution.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of electric generating sets under hs code 850211 include the compression-ignition internal combustion piston engines, electric generators, and various other components such as fuel systems, cooling systems, and control panels. Manufacturers also rely on a range of raw materials, including metals, plastics, and electronics, to fabricate the necessary parts and assemblies. Additionally, specialized machinery and tools are essential for the precise manufacturing and assembly of these generating sets.
