UNSPSC 40151612: Centrifugal compressors

UNSPSC 40151612 Centrifugal compressors is a Commodity code that in recent state and local activity denotes trailer-mounted rotary screw air compressors for road work, maintenance operations, and field deployment. The scope spans diesel-powered units at various output ratings (250 cfm at 100 psi and 375 cfm at 150 psi), typically with hose reel assemblies, tool lubricators, and operator-control panels, supplied as newly manufactured equipment only. State departments of transportation are the primary issuing bodies under this code; county and municipal authorities also solicit air compression equipment for operational and emergency response use. The work reflects procurement of capital equipment and consumable supplies for sustained field operations rather than a narrow product line.

The Illinois Department of Transportation posted a rebid (IFB B49477) on July 2, 2026 for trailer-mounted air compressors serving Districts 1–4, with bids due July 20, 2026; the solicitation specified newly manufactured rotary screw designs with diesel engines, 12-month manufacturer warranties, and firm pricing for 180 days from bid opening, with award on a line-item basis to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners in Florida posted an ITB on July 7, 2026 (due July 24, 2026) for janitorial and operational supplies estimated at $765,679.84 annually, though the coding mismatch between the commodity (centrifugal compressors) and the actual scope (consumable supplies for fire stations) suggests limited direct relevance to compressor procurement under this code. Recent activity centers in Illinois and the Upper Midwest through state transportation agencies; the Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP #061626 (due June 16, 2026) for law enforcement equipment involves multiple Washington and Pacific Northwest jurisdictions but does not clearly specify compressor procurement within its scope.
