Choose the robot only after the aisle, the ramp and the dock room are measured. Our pick, once those three fit, is the CleaniBot C5. If the ramp is over 2%, the checklist points at Kärcher KIRA B 50, which publishes max 6%, not at a bigger tank. The model match is the comparison. A facilities contract has a longer clause list on the contract page. This list is the warehouse.

Seven checks, in this order. Stop at the first one that fails.
| Check | C5 | KIRA B 50 | T16AMR | Fail if |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Opening | pass 800 mm path | pass 900–1,000 mm | pass 1.45 m | The aisle is smaller |
| Grade | ≤2% | max 6% | not published | A percentage was added without a published specification |
| Tanks | 45 L / 45 L tanks | 55 L / 55 L tanks | 190 L / 225 L tanks | You added the C5 tanks |
| Rate | 1,980 m²/h maximum theoretical | 2,365 m²/h theoretical autonomous | 5,890 m²/h theoretical manual | The label was dropped |
| Runtime | 3 h scrub, ≤70 dB(A) | 3.5 h scrub, 69 dB(A) | 4 h scrub, 71 dB(A) | You planned a full site on one charge |
| Dock | Docking station refills and drains | Optional | No water dock | The dock was assumed |
| Model | Path | Rate, with the label | Tanks | 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) |
| Kärcher KIRA B 50 | 550 mm path, pass 900 mm | 2,365 m²/h theoretical autonomous | 55 L / 55 L tanks | 3.5 h scrub | 69 dB(A) |
| Avidbots Neo 2W | 790 mm path | 3,941 m²/h theoretical | 109 L / 135 L tanks | 4–6 h | 75 dB(A) |
| Tennant T16AMR | 910 mm path, pass 1.45 m | 5,890 m²/h theoretical manual | 190 L / 225 L tanks | 4 h scrub | 71 dB(A) |
| ICE RS26 | 660 mm path | 2,687 m²/h autonomous | 110 L / 110 L tanks | 4 h | 68 dB(A) |
| Pudu BG1 | path 85 cm | 2,000 m²/h covered max | 75 L / 60 L tanks | max 7.5 h | noise not published |
C5 when the opening, the 2% ramp and the docking station all pass. KIRA B 50 when check 2 fails the C5 and passes max 6%. Neo 2W when the turn is about 3.05 m and 3% is enough. T16AMR when the aisle is already a ride-on and the buyer keeps the manual label. Pudu BG1 at about 344 kg fails a checklist that has no room off the lane. Brain Corp on a Tennant is not a substitute for a missing grade.
The aisle check is opening plus ramp. A 190 L tank does not pass a 2% failure. Gausium publishes the Scrubber 50 Pro grade as 4.6°, which is not a percent, so it does not pass check 2 as “6%”.
A shop photo and a euro listing are not measurements. Price, lease price and payback are not on this page.
The wet-floor owner is a named person on the shift. IEC 63327 and IEC 60335-2-72 are the machine standards. IEC 60529 is the IP code. Slips stay with the employer (HSE slips, and in the EU the OSH Framework Directive). The route stays off an accessible path (Access Board, chapter 4) and out of an exit (NFPA 101). 47 CFR Part 15 is the C5 radio claim, not a safety certificate.
Who teaches the empty aisle. Who keeps the weekly check after the C5 station self-cleans. Which detergent: neutral or alkaline only on the C5. Those three lines belong on the order.
A ramp over 2%, no room for the docking station, or an opening under 800 mm.
Yes, provided the ramp limit is separately confirmed rather than assumed. Do not use a percentage that the specification sheet does not publish. The rate you may cite is 5,890 m²/h theoretical manual.
No. That building has its own pass and elevator questions. This list is the warehouse.
When the file must name CSA/ANSI C22.2 No. 336. The Liberty SC50 autonomous grade is 2%, and the published aisle turn is 1,592 mm manual.
No.
