How to choose the right spare part for Roborock?
When choosing a spare part, start with the exact model designation of your device. Knowing only the basic model series is not enough – product information may include, for example, S7, S7+, S7 MaxV and S7 MaxV Ultra or Q7, Q7 Max and Q7 Max+. Therefore, do not omit designations such as +, Max, MaxV, Ultra or Pro when comparing models.
Next, identify the specific part you need to replace. This may be an item for regular maintenance, such as a filter, brush or mop cloth, or a service component such as a motor, sensor, LiDAR unit, pump or electronic board. For robot vacuum cleaners with a docking station, also distinguish whether you need a part for the robot itself or for the station.
Finally, check the list of compatible models for the specific product. For batteries, motors, electronic boards and other electrical components, also compare the technical specifications listed for the product with the requirements of your particular device.
From maintenance accessories to service components
Roborock spare parts include components intended for different purposes. Regular maintenance mainly involves filters, main and side brushes, mop cloths, dust bags or sets containing these items. Repairing the device may require replacing a specific mechanical or electrical part.
Depending on the model, service components may include suction motors, main or side brush motors, motorised wheels, pumps, sensors, LiDAR components, main brush modules, containers or electronic boards. With these parts, it is important to identify the specific component that needs to be replaced.
LiDAR, sensors, motors and electronic parts for Roborock
Technical repairs may involve various components with different functions and locations. These may include a LiDAR sensor unit or its components, a cliff sensor, wall detection sensor, carpet sensor, dust bin sensor or a sensor related to the docking station.
Different types of motors and electronic parts must also be distinguished. The suction motor, main brush motor and water pump motor are different components. Main boards or power boards, cables, modules and other parts of specific systems may also be available as separate spare parts. When choosing a technical part, it is therefore useful to know not only the device model but also the exact name and location of the required component.
Roborock docking station parts
A docking station may use its own spare parts that are not part of the robot vacuum cleaner itself. Depending on the model, these may include clean or dirty water tanks, charging contacts, ramps, filters, pumps, electronic components or parts used for cleaning the mops.
When choosing a docking station part, identifying the robot vacuum cleaner model alone is therefore not enough. Check the product name and description to determine which part of the docking station the component is intended for and which models it is compatible with.
Roborock mopping system parts
The mopping system may consist of several individually replaceable components. In addition to the mop cloth itself, selected devices may use mop holders, mopping modules, water tubes, pumps, water tanks or components related to mop washing in the docking station.
In the event of damage or a malfunction, first identify the specific part of the system that needs to be replaced. A mop cloth, its holder, a water pump and a complete mopping module are different parts of the device and should be treated as separate spare parts when making your selection.
Individual spare part or accessory set?
If you need to replace one specific component, you can choose an individual spare part. Accessory sets are also available for various Roborock models, combining several regular maintenance items such as a main brush, filters, side brushes, mop cloths or dust bags.
Sets intended for the same models may differ in both their contents and the number of pieces included. When choosing a set, check not only the list of compatible devices but also the exact contents of the particular set.
Genuine, Refurbished, Aftermarket and Aftermarket PRO
When choosing spare parts and accessories for Roborock, you may encounter the quality designations Genuine, Refurbished, Aftermarket and Aftermarket PRO.
Genuine refers to an original spare part.
Refurbished refers to a refurbished spare part.
Aftermarket refers to an alternative spare part made by a manufacturer other than the device manufacturer. It is intended as a compatible replacement for the listed models.
Aftermarket PRO represents a higher quality level within aftermarket spare parts.
The quality designation and compatibility are separate pieces of information. Regardless of the quality option you choose, always check whether the specific part is intended for your vacuum cleaner model.
Compatibility with multiple models and brands
A single spare part may be intended for multiple Roborock models according to the information provided for the specific product. For some components, the list of compatible devices may also include selected models labelled Xiaomi, Xiaowa, Dreame or another brand.
Such compatibility applies only to the specific spare part and the listed devices. It does not mean that parts are generally interchangeable between different brands or model series. The compatibility list for the specific product is always the deciding factor.
Replacing technical Roborock parts
The difficulty of replacement depends on the specific component. Replacing a filter, brush or mop cloth is different from working on a LiDAR unit, motor, pump, sensor or electronic board. If the repair requires extensive disassembly of the device and you do not have the necessary experience or equipment, it is advisable to have the repair carried out by a professional service centre.
Frequently asked questions
Is comparing the battery capacity in mAh enough when choosing a Roborock battery?
No, battery capacity alone is not enough to confirm compatibility. Check the compatible models and compare the battery designation, voltage, capacity and other technical specifications listed for the specific product.
Can I use a main or side brush from another Roborock model if it looks the same?
A matching or similar appearance does not confirm that a brush is compatible with another model. Main and side brushes may be intended for specific groups of devices, so check the list of compatible models provided for the product.
Are dust bags for Roborock docking stations universal?
No, dust bags for Roborock docking stations are not automatically universal across all models. Different bags may be intended for specific models or groups of devices, so choose them according to the stated compatibility.
Is the main brush cover available as a separate spare part?
Yes, the main brush cover may be available as a separate spare part. Different Roborock models may use separate main brush covers and modules, so damage to the cover does not necessarily mean that the main brush itself needs to be replaced.
