NIGP 22072: Temperature Controllers, Indicators, and Recorders (Digital Thermometers, Pyrometers, etc.), and Accessories: Thermistors, Thermocouples, etc.

NIGP 22072 Temperature Controllers, Indicators, And Recorders (Digital Thermometers, Pyrometers, Etc.), And Accessories: Thermistors, Thermocouples, Etc. is an Item code under which state and local governments procure temperature-monitoring and thermal-measurement instruments for municipal infrastructure, utilities, and specialized industrial applications. Recent solicitations show demand for thermocouples with thermowells for waste-to-energy facilities; temperature transmitters, sensors, and switches for water and wastewater treatment systems; PT100 temperature sensors paired with vibration monitoring for booster stations; environmental monitoring systems for laboratory facilities; and thermostat-equipped thermoplastic pavement-marking applicators. Issuing bodies include city water and wastewater departments (Phoenix, Tampa, Gwinnett County), county public works and waste management authorities (Orange County, Palm Beach County), state environmental and agricultural agencies (Texas Water Development Board, Georgia Department of Agriculture), and special-purpose districts such as solid waste authorities. The code draws solicitations from municipal procurement offices, county utilities departments, and state-level buying offices managing infrastructure, environmental compliance, and facility operations.

Geographic activity spans Florida (Port Orange, Tampa, Palm Beach County), Georgia (Gwinnett County, Atlanta, Tifton), California (Orange County), Arizona (Phoenix), and Texas (Austin). Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's five-year IFB 26-0398 for pressure and temperature instrumentation equipment (sealed offers due August 18, 2026, requesting transmitters, switches, gauges, thermowells, and resistance temperature detectors from approved manufacturers including Honeywell, Emerson, and Ashcroft); Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources' IWQ 136938 for eight Model HS421 Series temperature transmitters with PT100 sensors and accelerometer assemblies for the Norcross Booster Station (quotes due October 12, 2026); the City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00315 for 24 Precision Measurements thermocouples with thermowells for the McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy Facility (due May 12, 2026); and the Texas Water Development Board's IFB ESBD_548214 for Apogee Digital Thermopile Pyranometers, RM Young temperature sensors, and Vaisala temperature and relative humidity sensors (bids due August 25, 2026). Contracts typically run one to five years with firm pricing in year one and subsequent adjustments tied to CPI or cost documentation. Vendors must maintain local stocking capability or same-day/next-business-day fulfillment for replacement parts and provide three years' experience supplying similar instrumentation to utilities.
