Electrical capacitors; variable or adjustable (pre-set) capacitors
HS v2017 Code: 853230
About electrical capacitors; variable or adjustable (pre-set) capacitors
hs code 853230 covers the classification of electrical capacitors, a critical component in a wide range of electronic devices and systems. Capacitors play a vital role in regulating and managing electrical currents, making them essential for the proper functioning of various industries, from consumer electronics to industrial automation. This code encompasses both variable and adjustable (pre-set) capacitors, which are widely used in applications such as power supplies, filtering circuits, and signal processing.
Production process
The production of electrical capacitors classified under hs code 853230 typically involves a multi-step process. First, the dielectric material, which acts as the insulator between the two conductive plates, is prepared. This can involve materials such as ceramic, film, or electrolytic substances. The conductive plates are then fabricated, often using metals like aluminum or tantalum. The dielectric material is then sandwiched between the plates, and the entire assembly is encased in a protective housing, such as a plastic or metal casing. Finally, the capacitors undergo rigorous testing and quality control measures to ensure their reliability and performance.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of electrical capacitors under hs code 853230 include the dielectric materials, conductive plates, and the housing or casing components. Specialized machinery and equipment, such as precision cutting tools, coating systems, and assembly lines, are also essential for the manufacturing process. Additionally, the industry relies on a skilled workforce with expertise in electronics, materials science, and production engineering.
Production outputs
The primary output of the industry covered by hs code 853230 is the electrical capacitors themselves. These components are then consumed by a wide range of industries, including 851712 Telephone sets, 852520 Transmission apparatus for radio-broadcasting or television, 853710 Boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases, and 854430 Other electric conductors, for a voltage not exceeding 1,000 V, among others. Capacitors are essential for the proper functioning of various electronic devices, power systems, and control circuits.
