UNSPSC 41114515: Centrifugal force tester

A type of device that finds out the relationship with the radius in centrifugal force of object with the uniform circular motion and mass of object, period, and circular motion.

UNSPSC 41114515 Centrifugal force tester is a Commodity code that encompasses precision laboratory and industrial testing equipment spanning materials analysis, optical measurement, electrical performance validation, and environmental monitoring systems. State and local governments—primarily higher-education institutions, utility authorities, and environmental agencies—procure these instruments to support R&D, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and operational diagnostics. Recent solicitations reflect a diverse purchasing pattern: Valencia College's sole-source acquisition of a PGI Optics CORE Optical Surface Profilometer for precision optics instruction; the City of Ocala Electric Utility's RFP for a Three-Phase Meter Test Board to validate solid-state electric meters across its metering program; Lee County Port Authority's request for airfield photometric testing services using mobile test systems to measure runway and taxiway lighting performance; Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB for precision high-voltage capacitance and dissipation factor measurement modules compatible with existing test systems; and the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's five-year IFB for fixed atmospheric monitoring instruments to detect hazardous gases at water and wastewater facilities. The code also captures sole-source technical support and repair services for specialized analyzers, such as the City of Tampa's procurement of Tekmar Fusion TOC Analyzer parts and repair services from Teledyne Instruments Inc. and the City of Orlando's notice of intent to award technical support for the FIAnalyzer-3000 System to FIA Lab Instruments Inc.

Issuing bodies are predominantly municipal utilities (electric, water, wastewater, and port authorities), state health and environmental agencies, and higher-education institutions across Florida, Texas, Arizona, and Oregon. Recent activity shows significant concentration among Florida municipal utilities (Tampa, Ocala, Kissimmee, Orlando, and Lee County Port Authority), with secondary activity in Texas (state health laboratories, Texas A&M University System, Texas State University, Lubbock Power & Light) and emerging activity in Arizona (Phoenix Water Services) and Colorado (State Patrol). The code shows consistent sole-source and competitive procurement patterns: vendor-specific sole-source notices dominate where equipment integration with existing systems or regulatory compliance creates single-source justifications; competitive RFPs and IFBs appear when agencies seek new system installations or services with multiple qualified providers. Response deadlines cluster in summer and early fall 2026, with several opportunities already closed or nearing closure as of mid-October 2026.
