Electric Backpack - RS18e 18 Litre Knapsack

This knapsack sprayer is manufactured with a rigid polypropylene tank and fitted with NBR seals chosen for their resistance to herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, fertilisers, and many pH neutral cleaning products which make this knapsack sprayer ideal for gardening, cleaning, forestry, and landscaping. Due to its unique design of our RS range of electric sprayers the tank can be pressurised to 4.8 BAR (69psi) which allows for either a higher distribution pressure or a long work time without the tank recharging.

This sprayer is compatible with all BOSCH AMP SHARE professional 18V battery packs and is supplied complete with a battery and charger.

Can I use this sprayer with the telescopic lances?

Yes. This battery powered backpack sprayer can be connected to our long telescopic lances including both the 5.4 metre, 3.2 metre, and 2.5 metre models as well as our shorter brass lances and lance extensions.

How long does this sprayer take to charge?

If you have allowed the battery to run completely out of power then a full charge could take around 2.5 hours but, generally, a standard recharge is between 20-60 minutes.

Is a battery included with the sprayer?

Yes. The majority of our electric backpack sprayers are supplied with both a battery and charger as well as instructions.

How long does it take to put the sprayer together and is it difficult?

When you open the box you will find that the sprayer is almost fully assembled for you; the shoulder straps and the hose are already fitted to the tank so all you need to do is to put the handle and lance together and attach it to the hose then select the most suitable nozzle and attach it to the lance and assembly is finished. This takes less than five minutes and the process is very straight forward.

Can I buy a second battery?

This sprayer is supplied with a battery and charger but you can purchase a second battery which is especially useful when spraying large areas to ensure that you don't run out of charge before your spraying is finished.
