Start with the clock. Our pick for the closed concourse is the CleaniBot C5. Our pick for a quieter gallery that never fully empties is the CleaniBot S55 Pro, and only on the shoulder, not at noon. Which zone gets which machine is the mall zone page. This page is when each pass is allowed to start.
Disclosure. OrionStar publishes this page and sells CleaniBot. Noise and runtime figures are manufacturer-published or from the product manual, accessed 5 November 2026. We did not time a mall shift.
Mall pages split the building by zone and then by operating hours. The zone page already assigns the robot. What is left is the timetable: after close, before open, after the food court is cleared, and never through a Saturday crowd.
| Window | Who is there | Robot | Noise you are accepting | Stop the pass if |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| After close, hard concourse | Security only | CleaniBot C5 | ≤70 dB(A). Runtime 3 h scrub | The aisle is under 800 mm, or a kiosk moved and the map was not edited |
| Before open, same floor | A few staff | CleaniBot C5, if the dock already refilled | 45 L / 45 L was the night fill | Climb on the route is over 2% |
| Shoulder hour, shopfront | Sparse footfall | CleaniBot S55 Pro | 65 dB scrub. Pass 700 mm | The carpet pile is over 5.5 mm, or nobody can fill 22 L |
| Narrow gallery, any quieter hour | Some shoppers | Gausium Phantas | quiet mode ≤60 dB. Practical 350–700 m²/h | You planned on the theoretical 1,188 m²/h |
| Saturday afternoon, main aisle | The crowd | None of the scrubbers | C5 is 215 kg. BG1 is about 344 kg | Someone scheduled a noon scrub |
| After food-court tables are cleared | Staff have left the tables | CleaniBot C5, neutral or alkaline only | Not strong acid | The job is still the kitchen or the tabletops |
| Carpeted retail, separate slot | Soft floor, not the concourse | Pudu MT1 Vac | minimum 65 dB(A). Max 1,400 m²/h | The order says “scrubber” |
Run the C5 when the concourse is closed. A 3 h scrub and ≤70 dB(A) are a night number. The workstation has to finish refill and drain before the next window, because one fill does not cover a regional mall. If a kiosk moved, that is a map edit done before the next close, not a guess at noon.
Use the S55 Pro on the shoulder along the glass line. It passes 700 mm and the scrub noise in the spec table is 65 dB. The dock only charges. Someone fills the tank before that window, not during it.
Kärcher KIRA B 50 at 69 dB(A) and Tennant T16AMR at 71 dB(A) belong in the same closed window as the C5, and only if the path fits. Avidbots Neo 2W at 75 dB(A) is a worse noon choice. Brain Corp BrainOS does not change that noise. LionsBot R3 Scrub Pro, at 800–1,200 m²/h practical, is a compact closed-hour option. Nilfisk Liberty SC50 at 63 dB(A) is still a scheduled pass, not a reason to run through the crowd. Pudu BG1 stays off the Saturday aisle.
The C5 workstation has to be plumbed and on the map before the after-close pass is booked. The S55 Pro dock only charges, so the 22 L fill is scheduled before the shoulder, at the dock, not in the aisle.
The C5 station self-cleans the sewage tank each cycle. The weekly check still happens in the day, by a named person, not in the middle of the night pass. The S55 Pro’s 22 L fill is a task on the schedule, before the shoulder slot.
A wet concourse is a slip risk (HSE slips). In the EU the employer duty is the OSH Framework Directive. Where the centre uses the U.S. accessible-route guide, the robot stays out of that route (Access Board, chapter 4). Where it uses NFPA 101, the robot does not park in an exit between windows. IEC 63327 and IEC 60335-2-72 cover the machine. IEC 60529 defines IPX3. 47 CFR Part 15 on the C5 is the radio claim.
Book the window from the runtime and the noise, and name the docking station that has to finish before that window starts.
| Model | Path | Rate to plan on | Tanks or bag | Runtime | Noise |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CleaniBot C5 | 550 mm path, pass 800 mm | 1,980 m²/h maximum theoretical | 45 L / 45 L tanks | 3 h scrub | ≤70 dB(A) |
| CleaniBot S55 Pro | 520 mm path, pass 700 mm | ~1,197 m²/h scrub | 22 L / 15 L tanks | 4.5 h scrub | 65 dB scrub |
| Gausium Phantas | pass 650 mm path | 350–700 m²/h practical | 11.5 L / 10.5 L tanks | 4.5 h scrub | quiet mode ≤60 dB |
| Kärcher KIRA B 50 | 550 mm path | 2,365 m²/h theoretical autonomous | 55 L / 55 L tanks | ~3.5 h scrub | 69 dB(A) |
| Tennant T16AMR | 910 mm path | 5,890 m²/h theoretical manual | 190 L / 225 L tanks | 4 h scrub | 71 dB(A) |
| Pudu BG1 | path 85 cm | 2,000 m²/h covered max | 75 L / 60 L tanks | max 7.5 h | about 344 kg |
| Pudu MT1 Vac | 550 mm vacuum path | 1,400 m²/h max | 14 L dust bags | 3–6.5 h | minimum 65 dB(A) |
CleaniBot C5 after close or before open. CleaniBot S55 Pro on a quiet shoulder along the shopfront. No scrubber through the Saturday crowd.
Only a quiet compact robot on an empty gallery is even a discussion. Phantas quiet mode is ≤60 dB. Kärcher at 69 dB(A), Tennant T16AMR at 71 dB(A) and Pudu BG1 at about 344 kg are closed-window machines. Brain Corp does not make the T16AMR a noon lobby robot.
Staff clear tables first. The robot scrubs the open hard floor in the next window, with chemistry the manual allows. The C5 does not list strong acid.
A person, before the next scheduled pass. The robot does not create a new route on its own at noon.
Not on this page. The dock is what makes the after-close pass possible. The C5 workstation refills. The S55 Pro dock does not.
