PICOSYSTEMS
Compact, point-of-use purification platforms engineered for consistent laboratory performance and flexible installation.
Designed for consistent performance and long service life, HYDRO Picosystems® deliver laboratory-grade water directly where it’s needed. Incoming water is conditioned through an optional prefilter, 185 nm UV treatment, activated carbon adsorption, and dual mixed-bed resin deionization stages to produce reliable ASTM and CAP Type I Reagent Grade Water for routine analytical and laboratory applications.
An integrated recirculation loop continuously maintains water quality within the system, while staged polishing ensures final resistivity and purity are preserved all the way to the point of dispense. A service light indicator provides clear visual system status, supporting proactive maintenance and uninterrupted operation.
The compact Picosystem® installs neatly under the sink, while Picomax® offers the same proven purification performance in a fully enclosed, powder-coated cabinet—providing flexible installation options without compromising purity.
Serving as the foundation of HYDRO’s point-of-use solutions, Picosystems® integrate seamlessly with your selected HYDRO faucet to deliver dependable, high-purity water from system to spout.

The Picosystem® Plus is a beneath-sink, point-of-use water system that combines multi-stage treatment to supply consistent feed water to HYDRO Picotap® faucets, supporting routine and analytical laboratory workflows requiring consistent water quality.
The Picosystem® Ultra is an integrated point-of-use water system housed beneath the sink that incorporates a Picopure® faucet for final-stage polishing of feed water to produce and deliver ultrapure water at the point of use for critical laboratory applications.

The Picomax® delivers the same proven performance as the Picosystem® in a fully enclosed, wall-mounted, powder-coated cabinet. Designed for environments where under-sink installation isn’t practical, the Picomax provides a compact, self-contained solution that supplies consistent feed water to HYDRO Picotap® faucets, while maintaining the precision, reliability, and water quality critical applications demand.
The Picomax® Ultra delivers the same proven performance as the Picosystem® Ultra in a wall-mounted, powder-coated cabinet, supplying high-purity feed water to a Picopure® faucet for final-stage polishing to ultrapure water at the point of use.
