Feature: Cordless, Cable-Free Design
Benefit:
✔ No tangled cords
✔ Easier to handle
✔ Cleaner pool aesthetic during operation
With no cords to untangle or manage, the FR200 offers a truly hassle-free cleaning experience.
Its cable-free design eliminates one of the biggest frustrations with robotic cleaners — no more tangled cables — giving the FR200 the freedom to move easily around the pool and deliver a spotless, consistent clean.
Feature: Lightweight and Compact (6kg)
Benefit:
✔ Easy to lift from the pool
✔ Effortless storage
✔ Suitable for any pool owner to manage
This compact cleaner weighs only 6kg, making it easy to retrieve from the water, while its small size ensures effortless transport and storage.
Feature: High-Performance Lithium-Ion Battery
Benefit:
✔ 2-hour cleaning cycle on a single charge
✔ Charges fast in under 4 hours
The powerful lithium-ion battery delivers a full 2-hour cleaning cycle on a single charge, giving complete coverage without interruptions. When it’s time to recharge, the FR200 is ready again in less than 4 hours, keeping pool maintenance quick and hassle-free.
Feature: Pool Compatibility and Easy Retrieval
Benefit:
✔ 8x4 M pools
✔ Suitable for all pool shapes and surfaces
The FR200 is recommended for in-ground pools up to 8 x 4 metres to ensure full and thorough coverage.
Pools larger than this can still be cleaned, but coverage may be reduced, depending on pool size and shape.
Easy Retrieval After Cleaning
✔ At the end of its cleaning cycle, the FR200 automatically waits near a pool wall, making it simple to locate and retrieve.
✔ Using the included retrieval hook (a standard pole is not included), you can easily retrieve the cleaner from the water without needing to get wet or strain.
Clear Lid for Easy Viewing
The FR200 features a transparent lid that allows users to quickly check the filter canister without opening the cleaner. This design saves time, makes maintenance easier, and ensures you know when it’s ready to be emptied.
Filter Canister
The FR200 features a 2-litre filter canister with 150-micron fine filtration, capable of capturing both large debris and small particles for a thorough pool clean.
Sand particles are typically between 50 to 200 microns in size, depending on the type of sand. Since the FR200’s filtration level is 150 microns, it can trap medium to coarse sand effectively. However, extremely fine sand (under 150 microns) may pass through
Pro Tip:
Rinse the filter canister with fresh water after every cleaning cycle to maintain strong suction and cleaning performance. For a deeper clean, use mild soapy water and a soft brush to remove fine debris buildup.
Trax
Scrubbing Brush
Pro Tip:
Regularly check the brush for wear using the built-in wear indicator to maintain peak cleaning performance
Battery
Supplied with a 5.1Ah battery allows this cleaner to be charged within 4 hours and and complete its 2 hour cleaning cycle.
Canister Access
To access the filter canister, simply flex the transparent lid upwards. The flexible design allows for easy, tool-free opening, making debris removal quick and convenient.
Battery Capacity and Longevity
The FR200 robotic cleaner is equipped with a high-performance Lithium-Ion battery delivering 5.1Ah of power. This provides sufficient energy — with a small reserve — to complete a full 2-hour cleaning cycle, covering both the pool floor and walls.
As with all cordless Lithium-Ion robotic cleaners, the FR200’s battery capacity will gradually degrade over time, leading to shorter run times as it ages. That’s why it’s important to assess the customer’s specific requirements — including pool size, debris load, and desired cleaning frequency — to ensure the FR200 is the right fit.
To maximise battery lifespan, the FR200 is best suited to light usage. When used once per week, it can maintain optimal performance for up to three years. More frequent use will shorten this lifespan, so for larger pools or those with heavier debris and more demanding cleaning schedules, a model with greater capacity such as the FR500, FR800, FR1000, or FR2000 may be more appropriate. Unlike many other entry-level cordless robotic cleaners, the FR200 features a replaceable battery. This provides a cost-effective option for extending the life of the cleaner, ensuring ongoing performance without the need to replace the entire unit. Backed by a 2-year warranty, customers can enjoy added peace of mind with their investment.
