UNSPSC 26101117: Vertical hollowshaft motor AC

A type of definite purpose motor developed to meet the specific needs of the vertical turbine pump industry. Employs a hollow shaft through which a pump shaft is extended. Adjustments to lift the impellers and give a running clearance for the pump casing can be made by turning a nut threaded on the shaft which is accessible at the top portion of the motor. Vertical turbine pump shafts are usually composed of many lengths joined by screw thread couplings.

UNSPSC 26101117 Vertical hollowshaft motor AC is a Commodity code that covers electric motor repair, replacement, and supply services as state and local governments procure them for water infrastructure, waste treatment, power generation, and facilities management. The recent opportunities show state and local buyers soliciting motor repair contracts, emergency generator installations, motor control center construction, and specified motor purchases—not the abstract equipment classification alone. Volusia County, Florida has posted two ITB solicitations (27B03LB and 26B134LS) for electric motor repair services across its seven wastewater treatment facilities, nine water treatment facilities, and 126 sewer lift stations, with work scoped to repair of motors up to 100 horsepower including submersible pump motors and dry-application units. The repair scope encompasses disassembly, inspection, rewinding, baking and dipping, machine work, bearing replacement, heat strip replacement, reassembly, testing, and painting, with contractors required to maintain office locations within one hour of Volusia County and meet 24-hour regular-order and 16-hour emergency-order response times. The issuing bodies include county utilities departments, municipal water and wastewater authorities, transportation departments, and special-purpose districts purchasing motor repair, motor supply, and power generation equipment and services. Volusia County is a repeat buyer in this code; Bay County, Georgia (Columbia County) is also active in motor and generator procurement; and regional transit authorities such as Broward County Transportation are buying motor-related maintenance services for bus fleets.

Recent activity spans Florida (Volusia, Bay, Columbia, Lee County Port Authority, City of Bartow, and City of Atlanta), Georgia (DeKalb County, Columbia County), and Virginia (Fairfax County), with additional state-level procurement through Sourcewell (South Dakota electrical power generation equipment). The Volusia County electric motor repair ITB 27B03LB has a response deadline of October 21, 2026, with a 3% local preference for respondents with documented permanent locations in Brevard, Lake, Orange, Osceola, Seminole, or Volusia County.
