The Kärcher BD 30/4 C Bp is an ultra-compact battery-powered floor scrubber designed for cleaning smaller and congested commercial spaces. Its 280 mm—or approximately 11-inch—disc brush scrubs hard floors while the curved squeegee recovers dirty water, reducing the time and physical effort required compared with manual mopping.
The lightweight 19.8 kg machine is easy to transport between cleaning areas and can fit inside many standard passenger vehicles. Cordless operation eliminates the need to manage a power cord while cleaning corridors, furnished rooms, retail areas and other spaces where outlets or trip hazards can be a concern.
Compact Cordless Cleaning for Smaller Spaces
The 36.5 V lithium-ion battery provides up to one hour of operation and can be fully recharged in approximately three hours. Partial charging is supported, allowing the battery to be topped up between shorter cleaning assignments without waiting for it to discharge completely.
A practical cleaning rate of up to 600 m² per hour makes the BD 30/4 C Bp suitable for commercial areas that are too small or crowded for a conventional walk-behind scrubber. Eco mode helps extend operating time while reducing water, detergent consumption and operating noise.
Disc Scrubbing with Multi-Directional Water Recovery
The 280 mm disc brush rotates at 150 RPM with 10 kg of brush contact pressure to clean smooth hard-floor surfaces. The curved squeegee follows the machine when turning and can recover water while moving forward, backward or through tight manoeuvres.
Separate 4-litre clean- and dirty-water tanks keep fresh solution isolated from recovered wastewater. Colour-coded controls make the operating functions easier to identify, while the adjustable handle helps the machine turn away from walls at a 90-degree angle.
