UNSPSC 42161606: Hemodialysis dialysate level detectors

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a dialysate level detector in a hemodialysis procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42161606 Hemodialysis dialysate level detectors is a Commodity code covering sensor equipment and monitoring devices used in dialysis treatment settings. State and local governments procure these devices primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and medical supply framework agreements that serve state health agencies, public hospitals, and affiliated clinical facilities. The solicitations under this code reflect a shift toward consolidated medical equipment procurement through multi-jurisdictional cooperative consortia rather than single-agency buys, with vendors expected to provide standardized product catalogs, competitive unit pricing, and volume-based pricing tiers to serve networks of public healthcare providers.

Activity under the code concentrates in the Mountain West and Upper Midwest. Idaho state agencies and NASPO ValuePoint entities issued a cooperative medical supplies RFP (NVP1433, response due November 9, 2026) that encompasses hemodialysis equipment and monitoring devices across multiple product categories as part of a framework for distribution to participating public entities. The Sourcewell cooperative issued RFP #061626 in May 2026 for law enforcement equipment—a category mismatch that does not reflect genuine activity under this code. Recent opportunities show Idaho and Minnesota-affiliated consortia as primary issuing bodies, with the structure designed to extend vendor contracts across hundreds of participating jurisdictions, school districts, and nonprofit entities. Evaluation criteria emphasize vendor qualifications, pricing competitiveness, and ability to support tiered procurement across multiple public customers concurrently through cooperative contracts rather than traditional single-agency purchases.
