October 23, 2025 (Dallas, TX) – Renovo Capital, LLC (“Renovo”) is pleased to announce the sale of Rochester Sensors (“Rochester” or the “Company”) to Amphenol Corporation (“Amphenol”).
Renovo acquired Rochester in May 2018 through a carve-out from Gas Equipment Company. Under Renovo’s ownership, Rochester was transformed into a scaled designer and manufacturer of liquid level sensors through significant investment in research and development, engineering, marketing and sales to introduce leading edge liquid level sensor technologies for the industrial OEM market. In addition, four strategic add-on acquisitions were completed, which brought new sensor technologies and access to new geographies and markets that have been instrumental to Rochester’s growth.
Renovo and the Rochester team invested significant effort to expand Rochester’s manufacturing capabilities internationally. Through all of these combined initiatives, Rochester’s performance improved significantly during Renovo’s ownership, an extraordinary achievement for the Rochester management team and all employees.
The combination of Rochester and Amphenol expands Amphenol’s breadth and depth in industrial sensor and interconnector technologies through the addition of Rochester’s significant capabilities in level sensor applications.
DLA Piper served as legal counsel to Rochester in the transaction.
