UNSPSC 41112206: Thermocouples

UNSPSC 41112206 Thermocouples is a Commodity code that state and local governments buy for industrial instrumentation and measurement applications in facility operations and waste management. The code spans temperature-sensing devices with thermowells used across wastewater treatment, waste-to-energy, and related infrastructure. State and local solicitations under this code draw from city departments managing environmental and public-works facilities, particularly departments operating specialized industrial infrastructure. Recent opportunities show end-users purchasing thermocouples as standalone instrumentation components to monitor and control high-temperature processes rather than as incidental parts bundled within broader equipment repair or maintenance packages.

Recent activity concentrates in Florida. The City of Tampa's Solid Waste & Environmental Program Management division issued RFQ 26-P-00315 for 24 thermocouples with thermowells (Part# CI1-MS14K-I-446-MTP-38-28.5-26.25-446-SP, 446 stainless steel) for delivery to the McKay Bay Waste-to-Energy Facility, with quotes due May 12, 2026 on an FOB Destination basis and quoted pricing valid for sixty days. The same municipality issued ITB 26P00425 for wastewater inventory panel and switch components (including process meters but not thermocouples as primary items) due August 6, 2026, restricted to Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) certified bidders with a 5% bid discount. No comparable thermocouple-specific solicitations appear in recent Atlanta Public Schools procurement activity; two APS opportunities cited in the source address commercial kitchen equipment repair and maintenance broadly, not temperature instrumentation. The code shows limited recent depth—only one narrowly focused thermocouple opportunity surfaces in current state and local records.
