New Karcher BR 85/100 W Bp Classic 34" Cylindrical Traction Drive Floor Scrubber
Our Take (from the SES Sales Team)
“The BR 85/100 W Bp Classic is the big cylindrical walk-behind in Kärcher's Classic line. It has a 34-inch path, 26.4-gallon tanks and traction drive, and Kärcher rates it at up to 35,025 square feet an hour. That makes it a fit for warehouses, plants and large stores that need serious coverage but want a walk-behind instead of a rider. The cylindrical brushes handle textured and uneven floors better than a flat disc, and the die-cast aluminum deck and squeegee are built for daily abuse.
All three packages are the same machine, so the only choice is batteries. Take wet if your crew already has a watering routine, AGM if you want sealed batteries, or the 114 Ah lithium-ion package for the least battery upkeep. Each comes with a matching shelf charger.”
A 34-inch cylindrical walk-behind scrubber for large, tough cleaning jobs
The Kärcher BR 85/100 W Bp Classic is a battery-powered, traction-drive walk-behind floor scrubber with a 34-inch cylindrical brush deck and 26.4-gallon tanks. Kärcher built it for large, demanding jobs in industrial plants, warehouses and big retail floors, and its cylindrical brushes with 88 lb of contact pressure work on smooth and textured floors alike. A 43-inch squeegee and up to 35,025 square feet per hour of coverage suit it to big floors, and the die-cast aluminum deck and squeegee are made for daily heavy use.
