HS Code 8414Air or vacuum pumps, air or other gas compressors and fans; ventilating or recycling hoods incorporating a fan; gas-tight biological safety cabinets whether or not fitted with filters
10 six-digit codes · Heading 14 of 86 in Chapter 84 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
HS code 8414 covers machines that move air and gas, such as pumps, compressors and fans. You may also see it called HSN code 8414.
Heading 8414 is finely cut: 10 six-digit codes, 841410 to 841490, all of them under “Air or vacuum pumps, air or other gas compressors and fans; ventilating or recycling hoods incorporating a fan; gas-tight biological safety cabinets whether or not fitted with filters”. At that depth it is the exact wording of the code, not of the heading, that settles a classification. The heading is number 14 of 86 in Chapter 84, Machinery and mechanical appliances, boilers, nuclear reactors; parts thereof, which runs to 538 six-digit codes in all.

What is HS code 8414?
Heading 8414 groups machines that move or squeeze air and other gases. Parts for these machines sit here too.
Which products fall under HSN code 8414? Think of a hand pump for a tyre, a vacuum pump in a factory, the compressor in a cold room, a desk fan, a cooker hood and a sealed lab safety cabinet. They look very different, but each one works with air or gas.
Its six-digit subheadings are split by what the machine does, how big it is and how it is built. The sections below explain each one in plain words.
HS code for vacuum pumps and compressors: 841410 to 841480
Five subheadings cover the pumps and compressors. Read them in order and stop at the first one that fits your product.
- 841410: vacuum pumps. These pull air out of a closed space.
- A pump you press with your hand or foot is the usual example.
- A site compressor that you pull behind a truck is a typical case. This answers the common question of what HSN code 841440 refers to.
- 841480: pumps and compressors for air, vacuum or gas that are not named anywhere else in this heading. This is the catch-all for gas compressors, so use it only after you have ruled out the codes above.
Fans, hoods, safety cabinets and parts: 841451 to 841490
Fans are split by motor size. 841459 takes the other fans that do not fit that wording, for example fans with a stronger motor.
Hoods and cabinets are split by size. 841460 is for ventilating or recycling hoods with a built-in fan, with or without filters, up to 120cm on the longest horizontal side. 841470 is for gas-tight biological safety cabinets, again with or without filters and with the same 120cm limit.
Parts have their own code. Whole machines go in the codes above, not here.
8414 vs 8413, 8415 and 8418: choosing the right heading
Ask three questions. What does the machine move, air or liquid? Is it a whole machine for cooling a room or food? Is it only a part? Then match your answers to the wording of the code.
- HS 8413 is for pumps for liquids. If the pump moves water or oil, look there.
- These have a motor-driven fan plus parts that change temperature and humidity, so a full air conditioner is not 8414.
- HS 8418 is for refrigerators, freezers and other refrigerating equipment, plus heat pumps. The finished fridge goes to 8418, while a compressor of a kind used in refrigerating equipment points to 841430.
- HS 8421 is for machinery that filters or purifies liquids or gases. A stand-alone filtering machine belongs there, not in a hood code.

HS Code 8414: common questions
What does HS code 841440 refer to?
The wheeled frame is what sets it apart from other air compressors.
What is the HS code for refrigeration compressors?
Use 841430, which covers compressors of a kind used in refrigerating equipment. A complete refrigerator or freezer is classed under heading 8418 instead.
Which HS code is used for fans above 125W?
Fans that do not fit the 841451 wording go to 841459, which is for other fans. Check the exact fan type and motor before you decide.
How are parts of air compressors and fans classified under HSN 841490?
It is for parts only, not whole machines.
What is the difference between HS 8413 and 8414?
Heading 8413 is for pumps for liquids.
Are air conditioners classified under 8414?
No. Air conditioning machines have their own heading, 8415.
