How Long Should a pH Sensor Last in a Chrome Plating Bath?
Most probes fail in days. The ones that survive months share three design characteristics: CPVC housing, double-junction reference, and field-replaceable cartridges.

No marketing fluff. Just what we have learned from calibrating, troubleshooting, and replacing thousands of sensors in actual production environments.
