Inside the CleanBot R1: the suction fan and airflow system that generates 6,500Pa of continuous grip on the window

CleanBot R1 8-Layer Safety System: Complete Breakdown

Layer 1: 6500Pa Suction

Industrial-grade grip — same force used in vacuum lifters holding 80kg glass panes.

Layer 2: 500mAh Backup Battery

Maintains full suction 30 minutes if mains power cuts. Unique in this price range.

Layer 3: Suction Alarm

Pressure sensors trigger alarm if grip weakens before any movement risk.

Layer 4: 150kg Safety Tether

Mechanical last resort. Has never been the thing that caught a robot in 2400+ worldwide sales.

Layer 5: Infrared Edge Detection

Four-corner sensors. Will not drive off the edge of glass.

Layer 6: Obstacle Avoidance

Routes around frames, vents and fixtures in real time.

Layer 7: Gyroscope Stabiliser

Corrects tilt up to 10 degrees on thermally expanded glass.

Layer 8: High-Friction Silicone Pads

Secondary friction grip independent of suction motor.

Result: 2400+ worldwide sales. Zero falls. Order with 24-month warranty.
