UNSPSC 40161506: Filtering machinery

UNSPSC 40161506 Filtering machinery is a Commodity code that encompasses industrial and municipal equipment used in water treatment, wastewater processing, and specialized filtration applications. State and local governments procure filtering machinery primarily through water and wastewater utilities, environmental departments, and public works agencies. Recent solicitations show procurement of specialized equipment such as filtration units for treatment facilities and mixer components for utility operations, typically through sole-source justifications, invitation-to-quote (ITQ), or cooperative purchasing frameworks when equipment specifications are narrow or replacement parts are required.

Activity under this code spans Oregon, Florida, and multi-state cooperative arrangements. The City of Salem, Oregon procured a Puma 2400 ECO Machine from USG Umweltservice under sole-source authority (Solicitation SKS004300017442, due July 15, 2026) for $424,494.70. Pinellas County Utilities in Florida solicited Invent Mixer Parts & Accessories under ITQ 26-0647 (due June 30, 2026) with performance across Pinellas County and Clewiston City. Sourcewell, a Minnesota cooperative purchasing vehicle, issued RFP #061626 for Law Enforcement Equipment on behalf of participating Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima counties in Washington and numerous other jurisdictions nationwide (due June 16, 2026), though this last opportunity appears tangentially related to the filtering machinery code's core scope. Recent procurement shows fragmented issuing bodies — municipal utilities, county services, and multi-jurisdictional cooperatives — each pursuing specialized or replacement equipment with compressed response windows typical of equipment renewals or maintenance procurements.
