In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a screen filter for an anesthesia apparatus used in a medical setting Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901819.

UNSPSC 42272506 Anesthesia apparatus screen filters is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a much broader range of medical equipment, supplies, and accessories than the nominal code title suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are purchasing master-agreement frameworks for comprehensive medical supplies portfolios, including ventilators, automated external defibrillators, maintenance services, and related equipment and accessories. Issuing bodies span state agencies (Idaho), county governments (Hillsborough County, Cobb County School District), community college districts (Mt. San Antonio), and municipal detention facilities (City of Augusta), typically using cooperative purchasing vehicles such as NASPO ValuePoint to aggregate volume and achieve favorable pricing across multiple jurisdictions. The code also captures equipment repair and maintenance services delivered by certified technicians at detention facilities and healthcare settings.

Activity under this code concentrates in the Southeast and Mountain West, with recent solicitations posted from Georgia (City of Augusta detention facility repair in September 2026, Cobb County School District AED procurement in June and July 2026), Florida (Hillsborough County ventilator maintenance over three years, $140,225 estimated value, ITB posted May 28, 2026 with June 12 deadline), Idaho (NASPO ValuePoint medical supplies master agreement, RFP posted October 6, 2026 with November 9 deadline), and Washington state (Sourcewell law enforcement equipment cooperative, RFP posted May 12, 2026 with June 16 deadline). NASPO ValuePoint appears as a repeat issuing body, sponsoring two nearly concurrent medical supplies RFPs (one posted September 25, one October 6, both with November 9, 2026 response dates) to establish master agreements with qualified bidders across participating state and local entities. Cobb County School District has posted two AED equipment and accessories quotes within a month (June 18 and July 15, 2026), each budgeted at approximately $50,000. Representative opportunities include Hillsborough County's ITB for three-year maintenance on 40 Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators requiring ISO 13485:2016 certification and AAMI-certified technicians, and Mt. San Antonio Community College District's RFQ for a tension fabric tent structure (posted August 13, 2026, originally due July 6) showing significant scope mismatch with the code's nominal purpose.
