UNSPSC 47101505: Chlorine handling equipment

UNSPSC 47101505 Chlorine handling equipment is a Commodity code covering specialized equipment and systems for chlorine storage, disinfection, and treatment in water and wastewater operations. State and local governments procure chlorine metering systems, ton-cylinder-mounted regulators, vacuum feeders, chlorine control systems with instrumentation and PLC components, rupture disc assemblies for pressure protection, storage building infrastructure, and associated piping and disinfection apparatus for wastewater treatment plants and water reclamation facilities. Issuing bodies include wastewater departments, water authorities, and city purchasing offices in Florida, Texas, Georgia, and California. Recent solicitations span from sole-source OEM parts procurements to full-system rehabilitation and maintenance service contracts, reflecting both capital equipment replacement and ongoing operational support needs.

Recent activity shows municipal water and wastewater agencies as primary buyers. The City of Huntsville, Texas issued IFB Bid No. 26-13 (closed April 7, 2026) for furnishing and installing a complete chlorine disinfection system at the A.J. Brown Wastewater Treatment Plant, including ton-cylinder regulators, vacuum feeders, ton scales, control panels, PLC systems, and electrical infrastructure over a 90-day delivery and installation window. The City of Tampa Purchasing Department sought chlorination equipment quotes (RFQ 26-P-00247, due April 20, 2026) for ten units of 1/2 inch NPT LM connection metering equipment with Hastelloy C tandem diaphragm. Hillsborough County Wastewater Department issued a sole-source intent (Solicitation 26P00371, June 10, 2026) for Continental Disc Corporation rupture disc assemblies and bolted holders for critical pressure-system protection, demonstrating OEM authorization requirements in the market. Geographic concentration appears strongest in Florida and Texas, with additional activity in California (Caltrans well-water testing infrastructure). The code also captures higher-value maintenance contracts—Tohopekaliga Water Authority in Osceola County, Florida (IFB-26-019, due April 16, 2026) sought fixed-rate maintenance and emergency repair services for odor control systems across multiple facilities through 2029, structured with hourly technician rates and material markups rather than equipment procurement per se.
