About

About KIRA B 50

Kärcher’s KIRA B 50 is an autonomous scrubber-dryer for medium and large commercial hard-floor areas. A 550-millimetre roller-brush path combines with 750 millimetres of vacuuming width, 55-litre clean- and dirty-water tanks, a five-litre detergent tank and a two-litre sweeper drawer. Kärcher rates theoretical autonomous coverage at up to 2,365 square metres per hour.

The 228-kilogram machine runs for about 3.5 hours, reaches 4.3 kilometres per hour in autonomous mode and requires a 1.5-metre turning aisle under the stated conditions. Pre-sweeping, brushing, edge work and water recovery are integrated into a single pass. A docking-ready design supports optional service automation, while site mapping, detergent choice, periodic maintenance and treatment of blocked or exceptional areas remain facility responsibilities.
