UNSPSC 20142803: Low temperature separation units

A low-temperature separation unit consists of a high-pressure separator, pressure-reducing chokes, and various pieces of heat exchange equipment.

UNSPSC 20142803 Low temperature separation units (Commodity) encompasses specialized equipment for water and wastewater treatment that removes solids, gases, and contaminants from treatment streams — including dual-shaft drive systems for clarifier and softener units, aeration systems for wet wells and lift stations, and related mechanical separation and treatment infrastructure. State and local water utilities are the primary buyers, procuring replacement and new-installation units through both sole-source and competitive pathways when existing equipment requires upgrade or when system compatibility with proprietary manufacturer systems dictates single-source procurement. The work includes equipment supply, installation services, site mobilization, startup, and in some cases multi-year maintenance contracts tied to the original equipment manufacturer.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida and Georgia, with the City of Holly Hill, Florida pursuing replacement of a WesTech DS43 dual-shaft drive unit for softener equipment at its Water Treatment Plant (sole-source notice posted October 19, 2026, originally due September 22, 2020, valued at $113,067 including installation); Hillsborough County, Florida issuing a five-year sole-source procurement for Wet Well Wizard aeration systems across lift stations and wet wells (notice posted September 8, 2026, response deadline September 22, 2026, estimated value $5.371 million); and Clayton County, Georgia issuing an RFP for drinking water treatment residuals removal and disposal at the Jim Blanchard and Clarks Hill Water Treatment Plants (RFP posted July 1, 2026, proposals due July 30, 2026). Geographic activity spans Florida and Georgia, with water treatment plants and wastewater lift stations representing the core customer base.
