UNSPSC 42293528: Suction pump, electrical

A suction pump works by atmospheric pressure; when the piston is raised, creating a partial vacuum, atmospheric pressure outside forces water into the cylinder, whence it is permitted to escape by an outlet valve.

UNSPSC 42293528 Suction pump, electrical is a Commodity code that does not align with the state and local opportunities recently posted under it. The recent solicitations—laser equipment and technical support for surgical operating rooms, outpatient furniture procurement, surgical power instruments, electrical connectors and components for radio and audio/video repair, and law enforcement equipment through a cooperative purchasing vehicle—contain no procurement for suction pumps or related fluid-handling equipment. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local markets based on the available opportunities.

San Mateo Medical Center (San Mateo County), the State of California's healthcare facility capital program, the County of Orange Sheriff-Coroner Department, and Sourcewell (on behalf of multiple Washington counties and other jurisdictions nationwide) have posted recent solicitations, but none target suction-pump procurement. The geographic distribution spans California (San Mateo County and statewide), Orange County California, and Washington state through Sourcewell's multi-jurisdictional cooperative purchasing framework, though this geographic spread reflects the issuing bodies' locations rather than active buying in the commodity category itself. Without concrete recent opportunities requesting suction pumps or related electrical fluid-handling equipment, pursue activity in this code only if direct intelligence surfaces an imminent healthcare facility capital project or medical equipment replacement initiative at a specific state or local issuing body.
