GENERAL ARRANGEMENT OF CHAPTER 90 THIS CHAPTER COVERS A WIDE VARIETY OF INSTRUMENTS AND APPARATUS WHICH ARE, AS A RULE, CHARACTERISED BY THEIR HIGH FINISH AND HIGH PRECISION. MOST OF THEM ARE USED MAINLY FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES (LABORATORY RESEARCH WORK, ANALYSIS, ASTRONOMY, ETC), FOR SPECIALISED TECHNICAL OR INDUSTRIAL PURPOSES (MEASURING OR CHECKING, OBSERVATION, ETC) OR FOR MEDIAL PURPOSES. THIS CHAPTER INCLUDES IN PARTICULAR; (B) INSTRUMENTS AND APPARATUS DESIGNED FOR CERTAIN SPECIFICALLY DEFINED USES )SURVEYING, METEOROLOGY, DRAWING, CALCULATING, ETC). THERE ARE CERTAIN EXCEPTIONS TO THE GENERAL RULE THAT THE INSTRUMENTS AND APPARATUS OF THIS CHAPTER ARE HIGH PRECISION TYPES. FOR EXAMPLE, THE CHAPTER ALSO COVERS DIVIDED SCALES AND SCHOOL RULES (HEADING 9017) EXCLUSIONS/INCLUSIONS HEADING 90.10 THIS HEADING EXCLUDES (H) EXPOSURE CALCULATING DISCS AND RULERS ( HEADING 90.17) HEADING 90.17 (A) DRAWING INSTRUMENTS. THIS INCLUDES: (5) PROTRACTORS, FORM THE ORDINARY PROTRACTORS FOUND IN DRAWING SETS TO THE COMPLEX PROTRACTORS AS USED, FOR EXAMPLE, IN ENGINEERING. 9017201000 EXCLUDES (D) INSTRUMENTS FOR MEASURING LENGTH, FOR USE IN THE HAND. THESE INSTRUMENTS ARE CAPABLE OF INDICATING THE LENGTH, I.E LINEAR DIMENSIONS, OF THE OBJECT TO BE MEASURED, FOR EXAMPLE A LINEDRAWN OR IMAGINARY (STRAIGHT OR CURVED) ON THE OBJECT. THE INSTRUMENTS ARETHEREFORE CAPABLE OF MEASURINGDIMENTSIONS SUCH AS DIAMETERS, DEPTHS,THICKNESSES AND HEIGHTS WHICH ARE INDICATED AS A UNIT OF LENGTH (E.G., MILLIMETRES). THESE INSTRUMENTS MUST ALSO HAVE CHARACTERISTICS (SIZE, WEIGHT, ETC) WHICH ENABLE THEM TO BE HELD IN THE HAND TO CARRY OUT THE MEASUREMENT. (D)(5) MEASURING RODS (PLAIN OR DIVIDED, STRAIGHT OR FOLDING) AND MEASURING TAPES (E.G., SPRING RULES, RIBAND-RULES,DRUM WOUND BANDS),INCLUDING STANDARD RODS, MEASURING STICKS AND THE LIKE. (6) DIVIDED SCALES (SCHOOL RULERS, ETC;), INCLUDING V. SHAPED RULERS FOR MEASURING THE DIAMETER OF CONVEX BODIES AND VERTICAL MEASURING APPARATUS WITH MOVEABLE CROSSHEADS.
