Battery powered vacuum cleaner BV 5/1 Bp
The optimal solution for vacuuming in confined spaces: our powerful backpack vacuum BV 5/1 Bp with ergonomic and convenient carrying frame with Air Stream Comfort System.
With the backpack vacuum BV 5/1 Bp, Kärcher provides the optimal solution for places where space is restricted, but the cleaning requirement is very high. Cinemas and theatres, airplanes, buses and trains or even stairs can be cleaned quickly and effectively without having to use the bulky, corded machines. The ergonomic and convenient carrying frame can be easily adjusted to different users, makes possible simple handling and at the same time prevents annoying vibrations. The integrated Air Stream Comfort System reduces the build-up of heat on the back, which is very pleasant for the user. The control panel is attached to the hip belt of the carrying frame. All key operating and additional functions, such as eco!efficiency mode or the charge status display, can be controlled here. Please bear in mind when ordering that for this machine version the powerful Kärcher Battery Power+ battery and the compatible battery charger must be ordered separately.
