Vacuum cleaning machines
22 February 2017
The new twin 18V backpack vacuum cleaner and 18V robotic vacuum cleaning machine from Makita are designed to enhance the performance and productivity of contract cleaning operations in many commercial properties.

Both machines are supplied in body only form for operators to use the batteries from their existing Makita tools. Distributors can supply 3Ah, 4Ah or 5Ah Makita batteries with respectively 22, 36 and 45minute rapid recharging time.
The Makita DVC260Z backpack vacuum cleaner uses two 18V Li-Ion batteries housed on the machine to power the 36V DC Brushless motor which produces 45watts of suction power with a maximum airflow of 1.5m³/min and maximum sealed suction of 7.1kPa. The HEPA filter can be easily removed for cleaning. The high/low power selection is positioned on the machine control unit and two 5.0Ah batteries give 60 minutes run time in high mode, and 90 minutes in low mode. Dust bag capacity is 2.0 litres.
Weighing just 4.3kg, and supplied with a full brace harness with waist and shoulder belts for ease and comfort, this quiet-running Backpack vacuum has a lightweight 28mm suction hose, telescopic straight pipe with 500-850mm length adjustment, and flexible rubber nozzle ideal for cleaning uneven surfaces.
In spacious commercial premises, such as restaurants, exhibition centres and museums, a robotic vacuum can go to work when pedestrian traffic has ceased. The Makita DRC200Z 18V robotic vacuum will run for three hours and twenty minutes at a maximum speed of 0.3m/s, and cover up to 500m² in either a random pattern, or a fixed area marked out with boundary tape on the floor which effectively limits the vacuum’s area of operation.
