Triple Efficiency

Efficiency goes hand in hand with productivity. And productivity largely determines economic success.

The Format

Designed to achieve a lot in minimal time, the robot vacuum with a 35 cm working width cleans a practical area of over 300 m² per hour, even under tables and other furniture due to its low height. The side brushes not only widen the cleaning path but also ensure thorough cleaning right up to the edges. Another practical aspect is that the 4.5-liter waste bin rarely needs emptying.

The Software

The KIRA CV 50 autonomously maps the area to be vacuumed and calculates an optimal cleaning route for efficient cleaning, while ensuring consistent cleaning quality and also considering the time factor. It is also possible to create a manual map for efficient mapping of areas with numerous glass surfaces.

The Interchangeable Battery

The powerful and durable interchangeable batteries from the Kärcher 36V Battery Power+ platform ensure maximum independence in terms of location and duration of use. With a total runtime of up to 3.5 hours (when using two 36V/7.5 Ah batteries), the use of multiple batteries completely eliminates charging pauses and downtime. Even short periods can be utilized for cleaning.

Quiet. Comfortable. Intelligent.

Typically, a low noise level is not a strong point for a vacuum cleaner. However, the KIRA CV 50 resolves this paradox, vacuuming just as thoroughly as it is quietly.

Office-Friendly Noise Level

Whether in the evening, at night, or during the day, and even in the presence of the public – the autonomous robot vacuum always performs its task with a pleasantly low noise level. This is ideal, for example, for vacuuming office lobbies during regular working hours, or hotel corridors during room cleaning by staff. And in areas requiring particular quietness, such as in front of meeting rooms and other noise-sensitive zones, its Eco mode sets new standards for quiet vacuuming.

Great Ease of Use

Thanks to a telescopic handle, transporting the KIRA CV 50 within buildings is not only very easy but also highly ergonomic. Once placed on the designated surface, the device cleans either immediately after manual activation from the integrated display, or by activation at a precise time via the app. This allows for perfectly coordinated parallel work between humans and the machine, if necessary.

Intelligent Navigation

Entrances, traffic paths, living areas – frequently used zones are naturally also dirtier. Since the captured cleaning maps can be edited later via the KIRA Robots app, it is possible to arrange for very dirty surfaces to be cleaned twice. Intelligent sensors ensure precise cleaning of the concerned zones and guarantee high cleaning quality, even in these cases.

Use and Maintenance. Simplicity Itself.

We know from our smartphones that using highly complex technology can be extremely simple. The KIRA CV 50 is no exception to this rule – on the contrary, it can be easily used even without any expert knowledge or installation.

Effortless Start

We promise: there is no reason to fear that using the KIRA CV 50 will be complicated. Because it isn't. In confined spaces, simply press a button to start the Basic mode and let the device clean the room autonomously and systematically – ready for use, it can be deployed immediately upon reception, even without prior configuration in the KIRA Robots app. However, for the autonomous robot vacuum to fully leverage its advantages, we recommend, especially for more complex and heavily soiled surfaces, using the corresponding app, which works perfectly with the device. The relevant environment is thus mapped autonomously, and an optimal cleaning route is established. Subsequent map editing and the definition of "No-go" zones further optimize route planning.

Little Maintenance and No Tools

It's as simple as placing the KIRA CV 50 in the starting zone, selecting the desired map, and letting the device do the rest. We repeat ourselves, but yes, it's really that simple. Daily maintenance tasks are always tedious and time-consuming. Here too, the KIRA CV 50 scores points with its great ease of use. Thanks to its large capacity, the dustbin does not need to be emptied every day. Simply check the sensors for dirt, remove any debris caught on the brushes and side brushes, and tap the filter – and you're done. And to make things even simpler, no tools are required.

KIRA ROBOTS APP: Simple and Intelligent.

Our KIRA Robots app acts as an intelligent link between human and machine, offering total transparency on your robot fleet at all times, along with cleaning proof, and enabling further optimization of environment maps for even more effective cleaning.

Initial Setup Suffices

For everything to proceed as planned in daily operations, the environments to be cleaned must first be mapped by the autonomous robot vacuum. The resulting map can then be adapted to individual needs via the app. For example, by defining special cleaning zones or establishing "No-go" lines and areas. Based on this data, the robot vacuum ultimately plans its cleaning route completely autonomously, focusing on maximum efficiency. Furthermore, this configuration only needs to be done once for each environment, except for significant changes. Once saved in the app, it can be adapted and is available at any time – even offline, directly on the device's screen, and also for use with other KIRA CV 50 robot vacuums.

Additional Comfort Features

Whether for a single device or multiple units: the app offers numerous comfort features that keep you informed at all times about the device's status and all activities, and allow you to receive detailed reports on completed cleanings via mobile devices. To do this, the app allows you to configure a delayed cleaning start, enabling you to remotely initiate the robot vacuum. Additionally, a search function is implemented, as is effective anti-theft protection with PIN functionality. Thanks to the ability to assign individual names to the cleaning robots, you always maintain an overview, even if multiple devices are in operation. Moreover, an app account can be shared with multiple users, who can then access the same fleet.

APP FEATURES

Fleet Overview

From the individual device to the entire fleet – view the current status at a glance, including notifications of any changes.

Detailed Information with Search Function

Live overview of each robot's status, including battery level, reports, and cleaning plans. Adjust device settings, use the search function with the current position on the map.

Map Editor

Ability to edit cleaning maps later, create "No-go" zones/lines, and special cleaning zones. An edited map can be assigned to multiple devices. Maps can be named and grouped (e.g., by building or floor).

Efficient Navigation. In Complete Safety.

Safety first. Always. That's why the environmental detection by the cleaning robot is designed not only for efficient navigation but also, and above all, to ensure the safety of people nearby.

Sophisticated Sensor Technology

Every autonomous function of the KIRA CV 50 is based on a well-thought-out sensor concept, which on the one hand ensures efficient navigation and thus high and consistent cleaning quality – and on the other hand reliably avoids collisions with people as well as with furnishing objects, beyond mere light contact. To achieve this, the device features, among other things, LiDAR sensor technology, which allows it to keep an eye on the environment over a range of 20 meters, thus preventing loss of orientation, even in vast and extensive environments. Furthermore, various optical and acoustic sensors, such as drop sensors, wall-following sensors, and collision sensors, are integrated.

Versatility and Safety

Whether in schools or libraries, offices or hotels, convention centers or lounges, in corridors or other public areas: the autonomous robot vacuum reacts immediately to sudden environmental changes and automatically initiates appropriate braking and avoidance maneuvers if necessary. In addition, innovative integrated LED modules inform people about the device's behavior and status, certified in accordance with IEC 63327 for public safety.

Compactness and Versatility

Compact dimensions and numerous usage possibilities. The KIRA CV 50 impresses with its optimal cleaning quality on all floor types, whether it's different types of carpets or hard floors.
