UNSPSC 46171631: Seismic alarm

Equipment that is used to prevent the damages from warning in advance when there is an earthquake expected to have the damages on human lives or buildings.

UNSPSC 46171631 Seismic alarm, a Commodity code, covers vibration and temperature monitoring equipment and accelerometer-based sensor systems that state and local water utilities and municipal departments procure for equipment condition monitoring and operational safety. State and local buyers under this code purchase accelerometers, vibration transmitters, temperature sensors, and associated cable assemblies and mounting hardware to detect and measure mechanical stress, equipment degradation, and thermal conditions in critical infrastructure such as water treatment and pumping facilities. Issuing bodies include county water resource departments and municipal purchasing offices that manage utility infrastructure operations and maintenance. The work involves sourcing equipment components to standard specifications, coordinating delivery and installation logistics, and meeting jurisdictional compliance and payment processing requirements.

Recent activity appears concentrated in the Southeast, with Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources in Georgia and the City of Tampa in Florida posting solicitations in September and October 2026. Gwinnett County's Informal Written Quotation IWQ 136938, posted October 5 and due October 12, 2026, solicited eight Model HS421 Series Transmitters with temperature sensors, eight accelerometer cable assemblies with M12 connectors, and eight accelerometer studs for the Norcross Booster Station, with FOB Destination delivery to Lawrenceville, Georgia and award to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor. The City of Tampa's RFQ 26-P-00545, posted September 17 and due September 8, 2026, requested quotes for process controllers with 4-digit displays, compact dual-output and multi-purpose accelerometers, shielded cable in two configurations, and SC Series condition monitors for various city departments, with one-year award period and FOB Destination delivery within five business days of order receipt. Both opportunities required firm pricing, proof of insurance or similar compliance documentation prior to award, and electronic submission through municipal procurement portals.
