Analysis

NAICS 333914 is the 2022 national industry for measuring, dispensing, and other pumping equipment manufacturing, part of 33391 (Pump and Compressor Manufacturing). Census lists 12 example activities under it in the official index.

Between 2018 and 2023 the number of establishments fell 21% and employment fell 10%. The 2018 count used NAICS 2017, so part of a large move can come from codes being redefined rather than from businesses opening or closing.

County Business Patterns counts 552 US establishments in this code in 2023, employing 37,309 people at an average annual payroll of $83,565 per employee (72nd percentile of national industries). 23% of the establishments have fewer than five employees, which points to larger operations.

By establishments it ranks 1st of the 2 codes at this level within Pump and Compressor Manufacturing, with 66.7% of them.

Its index entries, the activities Census uses to assign businesses to this code, include centrifugal pumps manufacturing, dispensing and measuring pumps (e.g., gasoline, lubricants)…, gasoline measuring and dispensing pumps manufacturing and oil measuring and dispensing pumps manufacturing, among 12 in all.

Its goods appear in 30 statistical lines of the US tariff schedule, mostly under headings 8413 (pumps for liquids, whether or not fitted with a measuring…) and 8467 (tools for working in the hand, pneumatic, hydraulic or with…). That link is how import data is matched to domestic producers, for example in trade-remedy cases.
