The Karcher KM 85/50 R Bp Pack Li+FC 2SB Vacuum Sweeper is a compact professional battery-powered ride-on floor sweeper designed to deliver high productivity in warehouses, retail facilities, factories and other commercial or industrial environments where manoeuvrability and dust control are essential.

Equipped with a 615 mm floating main sweeping roller and two side brushes, the machine provides a generous 1085 mm total working width and surface area performance of up to 6,510 m²/h.

A powerful 24 V / 1000 W electric traction drive, compact ride-on layout and forward/reverse control allow the KM 85/50 R Bp to efficiently clean larger areas while remaining highly manoeuvrable in tight or congested spaces.

Supplied as a complete Pack Li+FC configuration with an 80 Ah lithium-ion battery and on-board fast charger, the machine offers a ready-to-work professional sweeping solution with fast charging, low maintenance requirements and excellent day-to-day operating flexibility.

Up to 6,510 m²/h Ride-On Sweeping Performance

The Karcher KM 85/50 R Bp Pack Li+FC 2SB combines compact dimensions with impressive large-area productivity.

Its 615 mm main sweeping roller and dual side brushes provide a 1085 mm working width, allowing the machine to achieve up to 6,510 m²/h surface area performance.

This makes it particularly attractive for businesses that have outgrown walk-behind sweeping equipment but still require a machine capable of operating through tighter aisles, corridors and congested working areas.

For warehouses, retail facilities and manufacturing sites, the compact ride-on format can significantly reduce cleaning time while avoiding the larger footprint of heavier ride-on sweepers.

Supplied with 80 Ah Lithium-Ion Battery and Fast Charger

A major advantage of this configuration is that the KM 85/50 R Bp is supplied with a 24 V / 80 Ah lithium-ion battery and on-board fast charger.

Lithium-ion battery technology is maintenance-free and supports both fast charging and interim charging, allowing the machine to be recharged during shorter breaks rather than relying only on long overnight charging periods.

A full charge takes approximately 2 hours, while maximum operating runtime is up to 2 hours, depending on the floor surface, sweeping conditions and machine settings.

This charging flexibility is particularly valuable in commercial environments where cleaning equipment may be used across multiple shifts or throughout the working day.

Compact Ride-On Design for Tight Spaces

While many ride-on sweepers are designed primarily for large open areas, the KM 85/50 R Bp places a strong emphasis on manoeuvrability.

Its compact design allows it to work through tight aisles, cluttered areas and congested commercial environments, while the standard machine configuration is capable of passing through 900 mm doorways.

This makes it especially useful for warehouses with shelving, retail centres, public buildings and production facilities where a larger ride-on sweeper may be difficult to operate.

The ability to combine ride-on productivity with compact access is one of this machine's strongest advantages.

Powerful Electric Traction Drive

The 24 V / 1000 W DC traction drive provides smooth battery-powered travel at speeds of up to 6 km/h.

Forward and reverse travel can be easily selected, helping the operator manoeuvre around shelving, machinery, stock, walls and other obstacles.

Powered ride-on travel significantly reduces operator fatigue compared with walk-behind cleaning equipment, particularly across larger facilities where operators may otherwise need to cover substantial distances on foot.

The machine also offers a climbing capacity of up to 12% for suitable ramps and gradients.

2.3 m² Professional Fine Dust Filtration

The KM 85/50 R Bp incorporates a large 2.3 m² polyester flat pleated filter designed for effective fine dust capture during commercial and industrial sweeping.

A dual scraper filter-cleaning system helps remove accumulated dust and maintain airflow through the filtration system.

Importantly, filter cleaning can be carried out from the seated operating position, reducing interruptions during longer cleaning runs.

The filter is also easily accessible through the machine's wide-opening cover, simplifying routine inspection, cleaning and replacement.

Floating Main Roller for Consistent Sweeping

The 615 mm floating main sweeping roller automatically follows variations in the floor surface.

This allows the brush to maintain effective sweeping contact across uneven concrete, expansion joints and other surface variations without requiring repeated manual adjustment.

The main roller also requires no manual wear adjustment, helping simplify everyday operation.

An external wear indicator provides a quick visual reference for brush condition so operators can identify when replacement is required.

When replacement is eventually needed, the main roller can be changed without tools.

Dual Side Brushes for Wide-Path and Edge Cleaning

The 2SB configuration is equipped with two side brushes, increasing the total working width to 1085 mm.

Both side brushes are retractable and incorporate adjustable speed control, allowing sweeping performance to be adapted to the cleaning environment.

The brushes automatically swing outward for edge cleaning and are designed to swerve when they contact obstacles, helping protect the brushes from accidental impact damage.

This provides effective cleaning along walls, shelving, kerbs and machinery while maintaining durability in demanding working environments.

Overhead Sweeping for Dirt and Debris Collection

The professional overhead sweeping principle efficiently transfers dirt and debris from the floor into the waste container.

The machine is capable of collecting fine dust and everyday loose dirt while also handling larger debris through its integrated coarse dirt flap.

This gives the KM 85/50 R Bp the versatility required for warehouses, production facilities, public buildings and commercial sites where different debris types may be encountered during the same cleaning run.

50 L Mobile Waste Container

Collected material is deposited into a practical 50 litre mobile dual waste container system.

The container design supports smooth and residue-free emptying, while integrated castors allow the waste containers to be rolled to the disposal point rather than carried.

This reduces manual handling and makes disposal easier when substantial quantities of dust and debris are collected.

Non-Marking Wheels for Finished Floors

The KM 85/50 R Bp is equipped with non-marking full rubber wheels, helping protect finished floors from tyre marks.

This is particularly valuable in shopping centres, retail facilities, public buildings, warehouses and commercial premises where maintaining the appearance of finished flooring is important.

Combined with battery-powered operation and professional dust control, this makes the machine particularly well suited to indoor commercial environments.

Operator Comfort for Longer Cleaning Runs

The machine has been designed to provide a comfortable and straightforward operating environment.

The driver's seat can be adjusted without tools, while the height-adjustable steering wheel allows the driving position to be adapted to different operators.

Clearly arranged controls and simple foot-pedal operation make the machine easy to understand, helping reduce training requirements where multiple staff members may operate the sweeper.

A multifunction display provides important operating information including battery status and machine hours.

Increased Safety in Shared Work Areas

A standard flashing safety beacon improves machine visibility when operating in environments shared with pedestrians, forklifts, vehicles and other equipment.

This can be particularly valuable in warehouses, logistics centres, factories and retail facilities where cleaning may take place while other site activities continue.

Karcher Home Base Storage System

The integrated Karcher Home Base system provides mounting options for cleaning tools and accessories.

A large rear storage tray also provides additional space for equipment that may be required during routine facility cleaning.

This helps operators keep commonly used items with the machine and reduces the need to make repeated trips back to a cleaning or storage area.

Easy Maintenance and Reduced Downtime

Routine servicing is designed to be quick and straightforward.

The main sweeping roller can be replaced without tools, while the filter can be accessed easily through the wide-opening machine cover.

An external roller wear indicator simplifies preventative maintenance, while the lithium-ion battery requires no routine battery maintenance.

These features help reduce machine downtime and make the KM 85/50 R Bp particularly practical for businesses that rely on their floor-cleaning equipment every day.

• Production facilities
• Manufacturing facilities
• Commercial buildings
• Public facilities
• Car parks
• Indoor storage areas

Its combination of up to 6,510 m²/h productivity, 1085 mm working width, compact ride-on dimensions, lithium-ion battery power and professional fine dust filtration makes it an excellent solution for businesses requiring both high cleaning productivity and exceptional manoeuvrability.

Ride-On Productivity in a Compact Footprint

The strongest advantage of the KM 85/50 R Bp is that it delivers genuine ride-on sweeper productivity without requiring the footprint of a much larger industrial machine.

This makes it an excellent progression for businesses currently using walk-behind floor sweepers but needing greater productivity.

The machine is particularly well suited to sites where large open areas are combined with doorways, narrow aisles, shelving, machinery or other obstacles.

Instead of choosing between productivity and manoeuvrability, the KM 85/50 R Bp provides a practical balance of both.
