UNSPSC 42182423: Audiometric testing electronic noise generators

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a device that consists of a swept frequency generator, an amplifier, and an earphone. It is intended to introduce a masking noise into the non-test ear during an audiometric evaluation in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42182423 Audiometric testing electronic noise generators is a Commodity code representing electronic equipment used in hearing assessment and occupational noise-exposure monitoring. State and local governments procure these devices for occupational health programs, employee wellness initiatives, and regulatory compliance with workplace safety standards. The code sees activity primarily through state health departments, county public health agencies, and municipalities managing employee health services, though recent opportunities show minimal direct solicitation under this specific commodity designation.

The source contains no recent state or local opportunities explicitly soliciting audiometric testing electronic noise generators. The three most-recent opportunities posted between May and October 2026—two NASPO ValuePoint master-agreement RFPs for broad medical supplies (due November 9, 2026) and a Sourcewell cooperative RFP for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026)—do not target this commodity directly. The medical-supplies RFPs, administered through Idaho's procurement system and open to multiple states via the cooperative purchasing vehicle, may incidentally cover audiometric equipment as part of larger medical-supply framework agreements, but the available posting summaries do not itemize specific commodity categories or confirm inclusion of noise generators. Activity under this code appears sporadic; state and local buyers typically source these devices through broader medical-equipment or occupational-safety contracts rather than standalone competitive procurements.
