UNSPSC 41114525: Oil filter tester

A tester that is designed to test the capability of the filter that filters the impure substance within the lubricant oil used in machine by using the particle counter.

UNSPSC 41114525 Oil filter tester is a Commodity code that describes precision laboratory and field testing equipment for measuring, analyzing, and validating the performance and integrity of filtration systems, optical surfaces, electrical meters, and related industrial equipment across state and local water utilities, universities, transit authorities, and municipal departments. Recent state and local opportunities under this code span optical surface profilers for precision manufacturing education, airfield photometric testing systems, three-phase meter test boards for utility metering validation, high-voltage capacitance measurement modules, spectrophotometers for water quality analysis, atmospheric monitoring instruments for confined-space hazard detection, and laboratory equipment maintenance contracts for sterilization and analysis equipment. The issuing bodies are predominantly municipal utilities (water departments, electric utilities, wastewater authorities), public universities, airport authorities, and state health departments.

The geographic spread of recent activity centers on Florida and Texas, with secondary activity in Colorado, Oregon, Arizona, and Ohio. Representative recent opportunities include Lee County Port Authority's RFQ 2026115BW for comprehensive airfield photometric testing at Southwest Florida International Airport, due October 29, 2026, involving mobile photometric systems measuring centerline, edge, and touchdown zone lighting in compliance with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5345-46E; the City of Ocala Electric Utility's RFP ELE/260570 for a fully integrated three-phase meter test board system with 0.04% accuracy minimum, due April 30, 2026, scored on qualifications (25%), technical compliance (50%), and price (25%); and the Texas Department of State Health Services' request for bids on laboratory equipment repair and maintenance for sterilization and washer equipment at the South Texas Laboratory in Harlingen, due July 6, 2026, with annual costs historically ranging from $25,050 to $40,000. Sole-source procurements appear frequently in the code's activity, reflecting the specialized and often manufacturer-proprietary nature of precision testing equipment and the criticality of integration with existing utility control systems and regulatory compliance frameworks.
