HS v2017 Code: 850740

About electric accumulators; nickel-iron, including separators, whether or not rectangular (including square)

hs code 850740 covers electric accumulators, specifically those made of nickel-iron, including separators, whether rectangular or square in shape. These types of accumulators are an important component in various industrial and commercial applications, playing a crucial role in energy storage and power supply systems across a wide range of sectors. As a key part of the broader electrical and electronics industry, this hs code represents a significant segment of the global economy.

Production process

The production of nickel-iron electric accumulators covered under hs code 850740 typically involves a multi-step process. This includes the manufacture of the individual cell components, such as the positive and negative electrodes, separators, and the container or casing. The electrodes are often made by pressing or sintering nickel and iron powders, while the separators are produced from specialized materials to ensure efficient charge and discharge cycles. The final assembly of the accumulator cells, including the addition of the electrolyte solution, is a critical stage to ensure optimal performance and durability.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of nickel-iron electric accumulators under hs code 850740 include high-purity nickel and iron powders, specialized separator materials, and the necessary electrolyte solutions. Additionally, the manufacturing process requires specialized equipment such as presses, sintering furnaces, and assembly lines to ensure consistent quality and efficiency. Other key inputs may include various fasteners, sealants, and packaging materials to protect the final product.

Production outputs

The primary output of the industry covered by hs code 850740 is the nickel-iron electric accumulator, which is used in a variety of applications. These accumulators may be consumed by industries such as 850720 Electric lead-acid accumulators, 850780 Other accumulators, and 853710 Electrical control and distribution boards, where they are used for energy storage, backup power, and other specialized applications. The versatility and durability of nickel-iron accumulators make them a valuable component in many industrial and commercial systems.
