UNSPSC 31251503: Hydraulic actuators

UNSPSC 31251503 Hydraulic actuators is a Commodity code covering automated valve-control equipment that state and local governments deploy in water and wastewater treatment operations to manage flow, pressure, and process control. Recent solicitations show municipalities and counties purchasing both complete actuator systems—including control boxes, mounting hardware, warranty, and commissioning support—and individual actuators, positioners, replacement parts, and repair services for existing infrastructure. The work spans sole-source and competitive procurements, with issuing bodies including city water utilities, county wastewater authorities, and regional treatment facility operators. Scope typically includes integration with existing valve infrastructure, compliance with AWWA and NSF standards, and compatibility with legacy electrical and control systems already deployed across multiple treatment facilities within a jurisdiction.

The code sees active procurement across Florida, Texas, and Georgia. The City of Plant City, Florida issued a Notice of Intent to Sole Source REXA X3R10000-90-C-P actuators through TSC Jacobs (IFB 26-038UM-NOI, responses due April 14, 2026) for $29,580 to replace manual operators on butterfly valves at its Water Reclamation Facility and Wastewater Treatment Plant, including control box, hardware, warranty, and one-day commissioning support. The City of Austin Purchasing Office solicited two units of a DVC 6200 microprocessor-based positioner compatible with HART, FOUNDATION fieldbus, and PROFIBUS protocols (IFQ 1100 BAS1093, quotes due June 16, 2026) for delivery to Austin Energy-Sand Hill Energy Center. The City of Phoenix Water Services Department requested sealed offers for electric actuators, parts, valves, gearboxes, accessories, and related software from authorized distributors of Asahi/America, Badger Meter, Emerson, Flowserve, Rexa, and US Koei Technologies (IFB-26-0343, offers due June 4, 2026) under a four-and-one-half-year contract running September 1, 2026 through February 28, 2031, with delivery to multiple water and wastewater facilities across the Phoenix metropolitan area. Seminole County, Florida pursued sole-source procurement of REXA actuator replacement and repair parts through PRO-CO, Inc. (SS5253, responses due June 1, 2026), and a Florida county issued an RFI (OPN2132136F1, responses due May 20, 2026) to determine whether Limitorque-brand actuators, parts, accessories, and repair services were available from multiple sources or only through incumbent Flowtech Inc.
