UNSPSC 42183053: Interpupillary distance meters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a device that measures the distance between the center of the pupils of the two eyes in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901811.

UNSPSC 42183053 Interpupillary distance meters is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity covers precision optical and high-voltage measurement equipment used by utilities and municipal operations. The Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB for a precision high-voltage capacitance and power/dissipation factor measurement module (OMICRON CP TD12 testing module) and the City of Tampa's RFQ for a Heck DR4900 spectrophotometer represent the concrete scope of work under this code — specialized diagnostic and analytical instruments for utility system testing and environmental monitoring rather than optometric measurement devices. Issuing bodies include utility authorities, municipal solid waste and environmental programs, and cooperative purchasing vehicles like Sourcewell that aggregate demand across multiple jurisdictions and public entities. The code shows limited recent activity focused on direct replacements and equipment upgrades for existing operational systems.

Recent opportunities are concentrated in Florida and the Pacific Northwest. The Kissimmee Utility Authority's IFB 26046JG (posted September 28, 2026, due September 22, 2026) sought a single precision high-voltage measurement module with an anticipated contract value under $250,000 as a one-time purchase with no renewal options. The City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00372 (posted June 25, 2026, due June 12, 2026) pursued a direct replacement Heck DR4900 spectrophotometer for its McKay Bay Waste to Energy facility, with payment required approximately 30 days after receipt and acceptance. Sourcewell's RFP 061626 (posted May 12, 2026, due June 16, 2026) cast a wider net across Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, Yakima County, and public entities throughout the United States and Canada under a cooperative purchasing framework, though the available documentation does not identify specific award values or set-aside designations. Vendors responding to these solicitations must submit electronically through designated portals (VendorLink for KUA, OpenGov for Tampa, Sourcewell Procurement Portal for Sourcewell) and comply with jurisdiction-specific insurance, employment verification, and nondiscrimination requirements.
