The Commodity
The sensor is an integral part of the Trigen Sureshot Distal Targeting System. It is comprised of magnetic wire coils installed on the top of a printed circuit board (PCB). This sensor is responsible for monitoring the motion of the system’s magnetic field, which is used to calculate the precise location of the tool. The magnetic field is used to guide the tool to the exact location needed to place the screw.
How does it works?
When the system is in use, the magnetic field created by the coils is constantly monitored and measured. This allows for accurate and precise targeting of the screws. This sensor is designed to be reliable, durable and accurate. It is also designed to be able to withstand the high temperatures, vibration, and harsh environment associated with the medical procedure.
Where and how it’s used?
The sensor is also designed to be compatible with the Trigen Sureshot Distal Targeting System. This ensures that the system is able to accurately measure the magnetic field and guide the tool to the precise location needed.
The sensor is a critical component of the Trigen Sureshot Distal Targeting System. It ensures that the system is able to accurately and precisely target the location for the screws. Without this sensor, the system would be unable to accurately determine the precise location needed to place the screws, potentially leading to inaccurate or dangerous results.
Tariff Classification
The applicable subheading for the PCB sensor is 8543.70.4500, HTSUS. This subheading provides for electrical machines and apparatus, having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter, such as electric synchros and transducers, flight data recorders, defrosters and demisters with electric resistors for aircraft. The general rate of duty for this subheading is 2.6% ad valorem.
Law and Analysis
The sensor operates by reading a magnetic field in order to provide feedback about the position of a screw or nail relative to the device it is installed in. This feedback is used by a surgeon to ensure proper placement of the screw or nail. This feedback does not provide any measurements such as inches, rpm, or psi, and thus is not a measuring or checking instrument, appliance, or machine. Therefore, subheading 9031.90.9195, HTSUS, is excluded from consideration.
