UNSPSC 52141808: Fish tank ultraviolet sterilizer

A device that is used to control infections by stopping the spread of microorganisms from one fish/coral/invertebrate to another through the water. It is also used in pond applications to control free-floating algae. When operated correctly, free-floating microorganisms will be killed by the UV light.

UNSPSC 52141808 Fish tank ultraviolet sterilizer is a Commodity code for a narrow product category—UV sterilization equipment for aquatic environments—that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The recent opportunities posted under this code span pond improvements, derelict vessel removal, marine vessel procurement and repair, traffic signal equipment, bridge replacement, charter transportation, and drone light displays; none of these represent purchases of UV sterilizers or their functional equivalents. The City of Palm Bay's pond-improvement ITB (54ITB26REBID, due October 27, 2026) specifies aeration and wetland filtration systems but does not call for UV sterilization. State and local buyers of aquatic infrastructure—primarily county parks and marine resources divisions, city environmental departments, and transit or public-works agencies—do not appear to be sourcing UV sterilizers for fish tanks under this code at this time.

The geographic footprint of opportunities posted under this code spans Florida (Palm Bay, Sarasota County, Escambia County, Orange County, Clay County, Broward County), Maine, Colorado, Oregon, New Jersey, Georgia, Kentucky, and Michigan, but the diversity reflects mislabeled solicitations rather than genuine demand for the commodity. No state or local issuing body has posted a recent solicitation explicitly requesting fish tank UV sterilizers or marine sterilization equipment as a primary procurement objective. Unless your firm specializes in aquaculture or public aquarium support—narrow niches within state and local government—this code warrants close monitoring rather than active pursuit at this time.
