UNSPSC 26141800: Hot cell devices

UNSPSC 26141800 Hot cell devices, a Class code, encompasses containment and handling equipment for radioactive materials used in laboratory, medical, and industrial settings where state and local governments maintain nuclear research facilities, medical isotope production centers, or radiological waste management operations. The code covers lead-lined enclosures, remote manipulators, shielded work surfaces, and associated containment systems that isolate hazardous radiation while enabling operators to conduct work safely from behind protective barriers. State and local procurement under this code typically originates from university research institutions, state environmental or health departments managing radiological programs, and municipal or county facilities supporting medical imaging or diagnostic isotope operations.

The source provided contains no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to UNSPSC 26141800, so current market activity under this code cannot be characterized by jurisdiction, geography, or representative solicitation detail. The absence of recent postings suggests either low procurement frequency for hot cell devices among state and local buyers, narrow specialization that concentrates purchases within a small set of research or medical institutions, or that recent acquisitions may have been conducted through cooperative purchasing agreements or standing contracts not captured in publicly available opportunity records.
