Price history
Kärcher RCV 5 specifications
The numbers that matter first, then every fact by group. As published by the maker or the shop we read it from.
Kärcher · on the market since December 2022
Dimensionsrobot and dock
From the published dimensions. The robot passes under furniture with 10 cm of clearance or more.
Suction and brushes 1 fact
- Suction power
Suction in pascal, as the maker measures it. More pascal helps on carpet, but it says little about how well the robot picks grit off a hard floor.
- 5,000 Pa
Mopping 2 facts
- Mop type
How the mop is built: flat pads, two spinning discs or a roller. Discs press harder on dried-on dirt, a roller rinses itself while it works.
- flat or vibrating pad
- Water tank in the robot
How much clean water the robot carries. It sets how long it mops before a refill, which a dock does by itself.
- 240 ml
Navigation and obstacles 3 facts
- Navigation
How the robot maps your home and follows that map. Lidar measures with a laser and works in the dark, a camera looks along and recognises more.
- LiDAR turret
- Obstacle avoidance
How the robot sees loose things on the floor, such as cables, socks or a pet accident. A camera with depth sensing sees more than a bumper that reacts on contact.
- AI camera
- Climbs thresholds up to
The highest threshold the robot takes, as the maker states it. Measure your own: the step into a bathroom or onto a balcony is often higher.
- 20 mm
Robot 5 facts
- Robot height
How tall the robot is. It decides whether it fits under your sofa, bed or cabinet.
- 9.7 cm
- Robot diameter
How wide the robot is. Narrower gets between chair legs more easily, wider usually means a bigger dust bin.
- 35 cm
- Robot weight
What the robot weighs. It counts most if you carry it up a staircase every day.
- 3.9 kg
- Dust bin in the robot
How much dust the robot holds before you empty it. It matters less with an auto-empty dock, which empties the bin after every run.
- 330 ml
- Noise
The noise in decibels, in the setting its source names: makers mostly give the standard setting, shops often the highest. 65 dB is like a vacuum at half power, 55 dB like a conversation.
- 66 dB
Battery 2 facts
- Battery capacity
The capacity of the battery. It hints at the runtime, but how much the robot draws counts just as much.
- 5,200 mAh
- Runtime per charge
How long the robot cleans on one charge, at its quietest setting. After that it recharges and carries on where it stopped.
- 120 min
