UNSPSC 39122223: Flow switch

UNSPSC 39122223 Flow switch is a Commodity code covering discrete switching devices used to control fluid or gas flow in mechanical and electrical systems. State and local procurement activity under this code centers on replacement and repair of electrical switching components—including mercury float switches, solenoid lock switches, and related control assemblies—deployed in water distribution systems, facility infrastructure, and transit operations. Recent solicitations show a mix of issuing bodies: water utilities (Hillsborough County Water Resources Department), transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority), school districts (Bibb County Public Schools, Gordon County School System, Eugene School District 4J), municipal departments (City of Dallas, City of Atlanta Department of Aviation), and county governments (Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners). The code also captures broader electrical supply and switch upgrade work when tagged at commodity detail, though several recent postings under nominally related UNSPSC categories involve network infrastructure, lighting, and intercom systems that sit outside the core flow-switch scope.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas, Florida, and Georgia. Representative examples include Hillsborough County Water Resources Department's ITB-26-00138 for mercury float switches (Type S and Type P models, estimated contract value $60,000.00 over two years, due March 2, 2026), Hillsborough County's ITB-26-00123 for Square D Brand Contact Kits ($184,000.00 estimated value, two-year term, due February 24, 2026), and Dallas Area Rapid Transit Authority's competitive purchase order for a solenoid lock switch with controller transformer (posted May 13, 2026, due May 20, 2026). Water utilities dominate the recent flow-switch segment specifically; the broader electrical supply and component category shows activity across Northside Independent School District (IFB due July 1, 2026 for electrical equipment, parts, supplies, and repairs) and the City of Dallas (BE26-00029715, sixty-month ID/IQ master agreement for electrical supplies across eleven product groups, due March 13, 2026). Delivery within 15 to 30 days post-order and FOB Destination pricing are standard requirements across transit and utility procurements, with Net 30 payment terms typical.
