Open ↗ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) An electrical apparatus, consisting of a cylindrical metal housing incorporating a lamp that emits ultraviolet (UV) radiation and an electronic module with light indicators for the status of the apparatus. The power of the UV light varies from 14 to 39 W. The apparatus is supplied with a standard voltage of 220 V. It is presented to be used for the photochemical purification of water. The purification is performed by the UV irradiation of the passing water, thereby destroying bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms therein. It is presented to be used in household, medical or industrial environment. 8421 21 00 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8421 and 8421 21 00 . The function of the apparatus is the purification of water, which is a function described in heading 8421 . The fact that the bacteria, viruses and other micro-organism are not physically separated but destroyed does not exclude classification under this heading. The heading covers filters and purifiers of all types (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 8421 , point (II)). Classification under heading 8543 as electrical machines and apparatus, having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere is consequently excluded. The apparatus is therefore to be classified under CN code 8421 21 00 as an apparatus for filtering and purifying water.
