Category 1 of 6 — the traffic-anchor category. A rake or sift mechanism clears waste into a drawer after the cat leaves. Figures are typical industry references, confirmed per order.
The automatic category carries the category economics of the whole line: the highest unit values, the longest consideration cycle and the most questions per inquiry. Buyers enter it through the mechanism decision, rake versus sift, and through the capacity and power envelope, both covered here. The engineering behaviors that decide reviews, sensing and stopping, are detailed in the safety sensor guide.
| Parameter | Typical reference | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 50 to 80 L | Multi-cat models run larger |
| Mechanism | Rake or sift | Drives litter compatibility; see the compatibility guide |
| Cycle trigger | Timer, weight sensing or app command | Deferral logic per the sensor guide |
| Power | 12V DC adapter (typical) | Region-specific plug confirmed per order |
| Waste containment | Sealed drawer with liners | Liner is a consumable SKU |
| Noise | Around 45 dB class at 1 m (typical) | Reference only; method per the noise guide |
| Certification | CE (EMC/LVD), FCC, RoHS, UKCA | Documentation supplied per order |
Three positioning profiles cover the main price bands. They are references built from typical factory platforms, not catalog commitments; every value is confirmed against the producing factory per order.
| Profile | Positioning | Key reference |
|---|---|---|
| Entry rake | Single-cat and small households | Rake mechanism, timer cycles, 50 to 60 L |
| Standard sift | Multi-cat households | Sift layer, weight-deferred cycles, 60 to 70 L |
| High-capacity | Large cats and multi-cat homes | 70 to 80 L, sealed drawer, app-ready platform |
Buyers adding connectivity step into the smart category, which shares this platform and adds the radio and app layers.
