(3)

1.

A small plate for an interchangeable tool, consisting of a compact layer of synthetic diamond permanently attached to a metal carbide substrate.

Classification is determined by the provisions of general rules 1, 2 (a) and 6 of the combined nomenclature and the texts of CN codes 8207, 8207 90 and 8207 90 10.

Having a working surface of synthetic diamond, these items cannot be classified in heading No 8209.

2.

A colour monitor, capable of accepting a signal only from the central processing unit of an automatic data processing machine. The monitor is not capable of reproducing a colour image from a composite video signal.

8471 92 90

Classification is determined by the provisions of general rules 1 and 6 of the combined nomenclature, Note 5 B to Chapter 84 and the texts of CN codes 8471, 8471 92 and 8471 92 90.

3.

Keyboard for an automatic data processing machine, in its own housing. This input unit does not have its own electrical supply and has to be attached, by its connecting cable, to the central processing unit of an automatic data processing machine to function.

8471 92 90

Classification is determined by the provisions of general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature, by Note 5 B to Chapter 84 and by the wording of CN codes 8471, 8471 92 and 8471 92 90. (See also the HS Explanatory Notes to heading No 84.71).

4.

Heating strips for self-regulation of the temperature of fluids, consisting of a copper conductor with a cross-section of 1,9 mm2, a self-regulating conducting filament, a fluoropolymer insulating sleeve, a tinned copper braid with a cross-section of 2,8 mm2 and an outer fluoropolymer sleeve covering the braid. The beating strip varies the heating power at each point of the circuit with which it is associated depending upon the temperature it encounters. It is generally intended to be wrapped around piping.

8516 80 90

Classification is determined by the provisions of general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the combined nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8516, 8516 80 and 8516 80 90.

8522 90 91

Classification is determined by the provisions of general rules 1 and 6 of the combined nomenclature and the text of CN codes 8522, 8522 90 and 8522 90 91.

These optical reading heads are assemblies of diodes and as such cannot be classified in CN code 8541.

6.

A disposable photographic camera, consisting of a plastic box measuring 98 × 58 × 35 mm, enclosing a sensitized 24-exposure 35 mm photographic film, having a lens, a shutter release, a viewfinder, an indicator of the number of exposures and a lever for winding on the film. The box cannot be reused after opening.
