NaceCare CRL 2128/50T 28" Ride-On Scrubber – LFP Battery, 43,300 sq ft/hr
28" Ride-On Floor Scrubber with Lithium Phosphate Power for Tight Facility Spaces
The NaceCare CRL 2128/50T is a compact ride-on scrubber that delivers ride-on productivity in a walk-behind footprint. Powered by a single NX1K 48 Ah lithium phosphate battery, it scrubs up to 43,300 sq ft per hour with a 28" dual-brush cleaning path, 70 lbs of adjustable brush pressure, and 21-gallon solution and recovery tanks — all at 65 dB(A) for noise-sensitive environments. The NX1K battery charges fully in 2 hours and is rated for over 4,000 cycles, backed by a 5-year battery warranty.
CRL 2128/50T Mechanical and Battery Specifications
- 28" cleaning path with two 14" brushes at 150 rpm — dual-brush overlap prevents centerline streaking on coated concrete and VCT
- 70 lbs brush pressure — digs into grout lines and worn floor finish buildup without operator weight on the brush deck
- NX1K 48 Ah lithium phosphate battery — 2-hour full charge, 2-hour runtime, zero watering or equalization maintenance
- Over 4,000 charge cycles — roughly 10× the cycle life of traditional flooded lead-acid batteries, reducing replacement cost over the machine's lifetime
- 600W brush motor / 400W traction motor / 400W vacuum motor — independent motor sizing prevents thermal overload on any single drive
- Rear-wheel drive, 11% gradient capability — climbs loading dock ramps and sloped parking garage floors under full scrub load
- 21-gallon solution and 21-gallon recovery tanks — matched capacity reduces operator round trips to supply and dump stations
- 65 dB(A) noise level — meets hospital and school noise limits for daytime cleaning without user disruption
- Automatic pad loading system — tool-free brush installation; no wrench or pad driver required during pad changes
- Stainless steel chassis — resists chemical corrosion from floor cleaning solutions and sanitizers
- Nu-Assist App — scan QR code for training videos, maintenance checklists, and live diagnostics on any smartphone
Facilities and Applications Best Served by the CRL 2128/50T
The CRL 2128/50T is designed for facilities that need ride-on scrubbing productivity but cannot accommodate larger machines in service corridors, elevators, or janitor closets. Its 30" W × 50" L footprint fits through most standard 36" doorways when approached at a slight angle. Healthcare facilities use it for patient wing corridors and post-construction floor clean-up where noise control is required during occupied hours. Retail and grocery operators favor it for after-hours scrubbing of tile and sealed concrete under shelving with tight aisle clearances. Educational campuses deploy it across multiple buildings with a single operator, relying on the 2-hour fast charge between buildings rather than battery swaps.
Battery Technology, Warranty, and What Ships in Box
The NX1K lithium phosphate (LFP) chemistry is inherently stable — it does not experience thermal runaway under overcharge conditions that affect other lithium chemistries, making it safer in enclosed charging areas. The battery carries a 5-year warranty from NaceCare. The on-board charger charges the battery without removal; plug the machine into a standard 120V outlet between shifts. The CRL 2128/50T ships with one NX1K 48 Ah battery, one set of scrub brushes, the squeegee assembly, and operator documentation. An optional off-aisle cleaning kit is available separately for extended reach under low shelving.
