The HOBOT-368 is a sophisticated glass-cleaning robot designed to automate window cleaning. It utilizes a powerful vacuum motor to adhere securely to glass surfaces, allowing it to move freely and effectively clean windows and even walls. This robot is equipped with two specially designed cleaning wheels that facilitate its movement across surfaces.
One of the key safety features of the HOBOT-368 is its screw-in DC power jack, which prevents accidental power loss during operation. Additionally, it incorporates an embedded Uninterrupted Power System (UPS) battery that provides up to 20 minutes of backup power, preventing the robot from falling in the event of a power outage. For added security, a safety rope is included, capable of withstanding an impact force of up to 200kg, ensuring the robot is caught if it detaches.
The HOBOT-368 employs reusable lint-free microfiber cloths on both cleaning wheels, which are crucial for achieving superior glass cleaning results. The robot is powered by AI Technology V3.0, enabling it to calculate optimal cleaning paths, automatically detect window edges, and perform a thorough cleaning of the entire window.
The HOBOT-368 offers a range of features designed for ease of use and effective cleaning:
Before using the HOBOT-368, it is essential to follow specific safety precautions. The safety rope must be fastened to an indoor fixture, and its condition (no breaks or loose knots) should be checked. The robot must always be connected to a power outlet for operation. For windows without balconies, a warning area should be established below to prevent people from approaching. The UPS battery should be fully charged (indicated by a green light) before use. The power should be turned on before placing the device onto the glass, and it's crucial to ensure the robot adheres firmly to the surface before releasing it. The device should be removed from the glass before turning off the power. It is not recommended for use on frameless or cracked glass, or on rainy or humid days. Obstructions on the glass should be removed prior to operation.
For optimal cleaning, a "Dry Clean" first approach is recommended. This involves using a pair of clean and dry cleaning cloths to remove dust and dirt. Using water or detergent on the cloth or glass during this initial phase can lead to muddy streaks. The robot performs best on sunny days or days with low humidity. After the dry clean, a "Wet Clean" can be performed using another pair of clean and dry cleaning cloths. A small amount of detergent or water should be sprayed only on the lower cleaning cloth, keeping the upper cloth dry, to clean the glass again.
The setup process involves connecting the adapter to the DC power cord, then to the AC power cord, plugging the L-shape connector into the HOBOT's DC power jack and screwing it tight, and finally plugging the AC power cord into the socket. The battery charging status is indicated by an orange light for charging and a green light for fully charged. Proper installation of the cleaning cloth and cleaning ring is vital to prevent air leakage; the cleaning ring must be perfectly covered by the cloth and correctly attached to the cleaning wheel.
To operate, turn on the power switch, ensure the fan is running, and place the HOBOT onto the glass, keeping it at least 10cm away from the edge. Verify that it sticks to the glass before letting go. The robot can be set to automatically clean the entire window using the auto-cleaning buttons on the remote (up then down, left then down, right then down) or manually controlled using the directional buttons. To stop the robot, press the OK or STOP button. When finished, hold the safety rope with one hand and grasp the HOBOT tightly with the other to remove it, then switch off the power in a safe area.
In case of a power outage, the UPS provides backup power for 20 minutes. The HOBOT will stop, play an alert, and flash red and blue lights, indicating it should be removed from the glass as soon as possible. The safety rope can be used to gently pull the HOBOT back at an angle close to the glass to prevent it from falling.
