UNSPSC 41113112: Paramagnetic susceptibility analyzers

UNSPSC 41113112 Paramagnetic susceptibility analyzers is a Commodity code. State and local governments buy under this code infrequently and for disparate purposes that diverge sharply from the code's nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged to this code include medical-grade oxygen supply for ambulances and emergency response (Collier County Emergency Medical Services IFB), refrigerant reclamation services for appliance gas extraction (City of Tucson RFP), hydrogen sulfide and methane detection systems for wastewater lift stations (City of Orlando IFB, Orange County Transportation Authority IFB), atmospheric monitoring equipment for confined spaces at water and wastewater facilities (City of Phoenix IFB), compressor gas coolers for heating and cooling systems (City of Austin IFQ), and a mass-burn waste-to-energy facility design-build-operate-maintain contract (Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County RFEI). None of these opportunities involve paramagnetic susceptibility analysis, which measures magnetic properties of chemical compounds. The code appears to be a placeholder or mislabeling artifact in procurement systems; the solicitations are for gas-handling equipment, detection and monitoring instruments, and chemical treatment services—not analytical instruments for measuring material properties.

The issuing bodies are a mix of municipal departments (City of Orlando, City of Phoenix, City of Austin, City of Tucson), county governments (Collier County, Orange County Transportation Authority, Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County, Gwinnett County), and one higher-education institution (University of Wisconsin-Madison). Geographic spread spans Florida (Collier, Orange, Palm Beach counties), Arizona (Tucson), Ohio (unlikely but present in records), Texas (Austin), Georgia (Gwinnett County), and Wisconsin. Recent opportunities include Collier County's medical oxygen supply RFB (due October 8, 2026), City of Tucson's refrigerant reclamation RFP (due September 19, 2024—a date flag indicating possible mislabeling), City of Phoenix's atmospheric monitoring instruments IFB (due September 4, 2026), Orange County Transportation Authority's methane detection system service and maintenance IFB (due June 1, 2026, estimated value $260,000 over four years), and Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County's waste-to-energy facility RFEI (due November 18, 2026). The code exhibits minimal coherent activity; business development professionals should verify with issuing bodies that opportunities tagged to UNSPSC 41113112 are correctly classified before committing pursuit resources.
