Makita 18Vx2 (36V) Brushless Cordless Backpack Vacuum (DVC261X Range)

The Makita DVC261X Brushless Cordless Backpack Vacuum provides the ultimate mobile cleaning solution for high-speed contract cleaning and facility maintenance. By completely eliminating the need for trailing power cords, this professional-grade vacuum removes severe trip hazards and allows operators to navigate tight spaces, stairwells, and transport vehicles with ease. Powered by an advanced Brushless (BL) motor, it utilizes two Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries simultaneously to deliver a robust 36V of heavy-duty extraction power, ensuring high performance on both commercial carpets and hard floors.

Engineered for maximum worksite productivity and operator comfort, the DVC261X is exceptionally lightweight, weighing just 4.5kg with the batteries installed. The ergonomic harness actively distributes the weight to the operator's hips, reducing shoulder strain during long shifts. Maintaining strict indoor air quality standards, the unit is equipped with a certified HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97% of fine dust and allergens. To suit the specific needs of your cleaning fleet, this vacuum is available in multiple configurations, ranging from a "Skin Only" option to comprehensive kits featuring multiple batteries and dual rapid chargers.

Ideal For:

  • Commercial Cleaning Contractors: Cordless mobility allows staff to rapidly clean tight office cubicles and stairwells without constantly searching for power outlets.
  • Aviation & Transport Cleaners: Perfect for maneuvering down narrow airline aisles, buses, and train carriages where plugging into a wall socket is impossible.
  • Healthcare & Medical Clinics: The integrated HEPA filtration system ensures 99.97% of microscopic allergens are securely trapped, exhausting clinically clean air.
  • Facility OH&S Managers: Eliminates power cord trip hazards and shares the universal Makita 18V battery platform for seamless integration with other maintenance tools.

Key Features:

  • 18Vx2 (36V) Brushless Motor: Generates an impressive 36 L/s of airflow and 11 kPa of sealed suction while running cooler and maximizing battery efficiency.
  • Ultra-Lightweight 4.5kg Chassis: One of the lightest commercial backpacks available, protecting operator health and reducing fatigue during 8-hour shifts.
  • Certified HEPA Filtration: Acts as an impenetrable barrier against fine dust, prioritizing indoor air quality and occupant safety.
  • Reusable 1.5L Dust Bag: Features a durable, easy-to-empty cloth filter bag to reduce ongoing consumable costs.

It is exceptionally lightweight, weighing a mere 4.5kg even with the two 18V batteries installed, drastically reducing operator fatigue.

What type of motor does the vacuum use?

It features an advanced Brushless (BL) motor. Brushless motors generate less friction and heat, providing more power and up to 50% longer battery runtimes than traditional brushed motors.

How long will the battery last on a single charge?

When using two 6.0Ah batteries, the vacuum provides a market-leading continuous runtime of up to 40 minutes on the maximum suction setting.

Is this vacuum suitable for hospitals and medical clinics?

Yes. It is equipped with a certified HEPA filtration system that captures 99.97% of microscopic particulates and allergens down to 0.3 microns, exhausting clinically clean air.

Can I use my existing Makita 18V batteries with this vacuum?

Yes. If you already own Makita 18V LXT batteries and a charger, you can purchase the DVC261ZX12 (Tool Only) model and use your existing equipment.

What is the capacity of the dust bag?

The vacuum features a 1.5-Litre capacity and utilizes a durable, reusable cloth dust bag for easy emptying and lower consumable costs.

Does it come with a floor tool and wand?

Yes, all variations of this vacuum include an adjustable aluminum telescopic wand and a compact floor tool designed to easily navigate under office furniture.

What are the airflow and suction specifications?

Powered by the 36V system, the vacuum generates an impressive 36 L/s (2.2 m³/min) of airflow and 11 kPa of sealed suction for heavy-duty extraction.

Why would I choose the DVC261GX19 Kit with 4 batteries?
