New Karcher KIRA B100 R 26" Disc Ride-On Autonomous Floor Scrubber
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The KIRA B100 R is a 26-inch ride-on scrubber that can also drive itself. It suits retail stores, warehouses, airports and schools with large, open hard floors where a crew would rather set up routes and let the machine clean them on its own. An operator can drive it in manual mode, and in autonomous mode BrainOS navigation cleans the specified routes while avoiding people and obstacles.
What stands out is the reporting and the safety design. Operators get notifications when a route is complete, managers get performance reports, and the key can be removed during autonomous runs so only authorized staff can take over. The 29-gallon solution and recovery tanks and a chemical metering system keep it running between refills, with 3 to 3.5 hours of run time per charge.
The trade-off is setup. Autonomous mode needs a Brain Corporation subscription on top of the machine, and Kärcher rates it for flat floors only (0% grade) when it drives itself. If your floors have ramps or you only want manual scrubbing, a conventional rider is the simpler choice.”
A 26-inch rider scrubber that cleans set routes on its own.
The Kärcher KIRA B100 R is a battery-powered ride-on floor scrubber that runs in manual or autonomous mode on hard floors, with pads or brushes. Autonomous operation uses BrainOS navigation from Brain Corporation to clean specified routes while avoiding people and obstacles, and it requires a Brain Corporation subscription. One button starts all cleaning functions, operators get notifications when a route is complete, and managers get performance reports.
Two 13-inch disc brushes clean a 26-inch path at 210 rpm with up to 165 lb of pressure, and a 33.8-inch squeegee picks up into a 29-gallon recovery tank; the solution tank also holds 29 gallons. A chemical metering system prompts for refills. The key can be removed during autonomous runs, and lights double as turn signals. Four 6 V AGM batteries give 3 to 3.5 hours of run time.
