ECCN 2B231
NPATVacuum pumps having all of the characteristics described in this ECCN .
What This ECCN Covers
ECCN 2B231 controls vacuum pumps having all of the characteristics described in the entry — for example certain large-throughput, corrosion-resistant pumps. These pumps support sensitive processing and are controlled for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Anti-Terrorism reasons.
Who needs to check this?
Makers and exporters of high-throughput and specialty vacuum pumps for industrial and laboratory process systems.
Compliance tip
Control turns on the pump's throughput, materials, and design features in the entry — many commercial vacuum pumps fall outside. With NP among the reasons, apply nuclear end-use diligence and verify the Country Chart.
Items Covered
- b.Pumping speed equal to or greater than 15 m3/s; and
- c.Capable of producing an ultimate vacuum better than 13.3 mPa.
Control Reasons
Items controlled for nuclear nonproliferation reasons.
Items controlled for anti-terrorism reasons. Most items on the CCL have AT controls.
