Karcher Sweepers for Professionals
Outdoors or indoors, pushed by hand or with a traction drive. Vacuum sweepers are used for larger interior and exterior surfaces, and compared to normal brooms, they remove even course and stubborn dirt, dust and waste quickly and effectively – with minimal effort.
How do sweepers work?
Different models offer different sweeping principles.
The dustpan principle
The roller brush turns in the opposite direction to the direction of travel. Consequently, dirt is moved to the front of the sweeper and into the waste container (direct dirt pick-up). Kärcher’s push sweepers and industrial vacuum sweepers operate in line with this principle.
Advantages:
Low-dust sweeping due to lower brush speeds and a short “sweep path”
Less brush wear
Ideal for expansive and heavy dirt as well as fine dust
The overthrow principle
The dirt is collected in the opposite direction to the direction of travel and is moved into the back dirt container via the main roller brush. Kärcher’s walk-behind vacuum sweepers and ride-on vacuum sweepers operate in line with this principle.
Advantages:
Container allows up to 100% fill level
Ideal for coarse and light dirt
Collects coarse dirt with ease using a coarse dirt flap
Good overview due to forward seating position

Which floors can a Karcher sweeper and vacuum sweeper be used on?
Different floor coverings and types of dirt also place different demands on the vacuum sweeper and relevant system. The standard main sweeper roller is the usual choice and stands out with its flexibility and long lifetime. However, the same roller brush is not suitable for all floor coverings. This is why Kärcher offers various solutions to help you achieve optimal cleaning results.
