Abstract (en)

A handheld vacuum cleaner includes a fluid flow path extending from a dirty air inlet to a clean air outlet, a main body, and a motor assembly positioned in the main body and along the fluid flow path. The motor defines a motor rotational axis. The handheld vacuum cleaner also includes a cyclonic chamber positioned in the fluid flow path. The cyclonic chamber defines a separator axis. The separator axis and the motor rotational axis form an obtuse angle extending between the cyclonic chamber and the motor assembly. The handheld vacuum cleaner further includes a pre-motor filter in the fluid flow path downstream from the cyclonic chamber and upstream from the motor assembly, a plenum in the fluid flow path immediately upstream from the motor assembly, and a sensor positioned on the plenum. The sensor is operable to measure a characteristic of the fluid flow path.
