LibertyCES has documented Temperature Sensor in Metal Plating & Photographic Process Solutions service, including plating bath solutions, chromic acid and nickel sulfate. Wetted materials to confirm: PVDF one-piece body and Pt1000 platinum RTD element. Documented models include GF Signet 2350 Temperature Sensor. Compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature and duty cycle, so confirm with a free spec review.
Materials documented for this service
- PVDF one-piece body (replaces a metal thermowell entirely)
- Pt1000 platinum RTD element
- In-line mounting 100°C @ 7.5 bar / 108 psi; submersible mounting 85°C @ 7.5 bar — a real lower ceiling for submersible use

Signet rates the same 2350 sensor differently by mounting style — 100°C @ 7.5 bar in-line versus 85°C @ 7.5 bar submersible — a real, easy-to-miss ceiling drop if a plating bath runs close to the in-line rating and the sensor is later moved to a submersible mount.
Chromic acid attacks metal thermowells, which is why a PVDF-bodied RTD sensor gets specified on a plating bath instead of a stainless thermowell in the first place — GF Signet's own material justification is that the PVDF body 'outlasts metal sensors in aggressive liquids and eliminates the need for costly custom thermowells,' exactly the failure a metal thermowell risks in that service.
Every material and product claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Chemical compatibility depends on exact concentration, temperature, and duty cycle — confirm current specifications with the manufacturer and request a spec review before final specification.
