The Areksan AR-900 is a turnstile-integrated hygiene barrier with vertical and horizontal brush sole cleaning, engineered specifically for environments where hygiene requirements are at their most demanding — including slaughterhouses, butchery facilities, and fish processing plants. Five independently motorized brushes, a timer relay-controlled handwashing sink, and a modular turnstile system are consolidated into a single sanitation line to enforce a comprehensive and non-bypassable hygiene protocol at every entry point. Overall dimensions are 240 × 110 × 170 cm, operating weight is 285 kg, and the enclosure is fabricated from 1.5 mm 304-grade stainless steel.
Multi-Axis Brushing and Mandatory Handwashing System for High-Risk Food Processing Environments
Multi-Axis Sole Cleaning: Vertical and Horizontal Brush Configuration
The defining technical feature of the AR-900 is its motorized cleaning system comprising five independent brushes operating simultaneously across both vertical and horizontal axes. Each brush is driven by its own dedicated geared motor, allowing brushing force and speed to be adjusted independently for each unit. This multi-axis approach enables mechanical decontamination across footwear surfaces that single-plane brushing systems cannot reach — effectively removing high-risk biological contaminants including blood, fat, and organic matter that accumulate on soles and lateral footwear surfaces in slaughterhouse and fish processing environments.
Timer Relay-Enforced Mandatory Handwashing
The handwashing station integrated into the hygiene barrier operates via a timer relay mechanism. If personnel fail to complete the handwashing cycle within the defined interval, the turnstile mechanism remains locked and passage is not granted. The sink is deep-press formed and paired with a heavy-duty industrial cast faucet designed to deliver consistent, high-flow output under intensive shift conditions. This sequential enforcement structure prevents contamination from being carried into the production area regardless of shift pressure or personnel throughput.
Modular Turnstile Design and Maintenance Accessibility
The AR-900 turnstile arms are modular in construction, each removable and reinstallable individually without specialized tooling. This design allows routine maintenance, deep cleaning, and component replacement to be carried out without interrupting production schedules — a critical operational advantage in high-utilization environments such as slaughterhouses and cutting plants where downtime directly impacts output. The modular architecture ensures long-term operational continuity across the full service life of the unit.
Access Control System Compatibility
The AR-900 operates in full compatibility with access control units, token systems, dry contact inputs, and TTL/CMOS signal protocols across the 5–48 V range. The water-resistant outer enclosure is rated for sustained exposure to the high-humidity conditions, intensive washdown routines, and chemical disinfectant environments characteristic of meat and fish processing facilities.

Typical Applications
The AR-900 hygiene barrier is the primary specification choice for slaughterhouses, butchery and cutting facilities, fish and seafood processing plants, and red meat and poultry production lines — environments where biological contamination risk is at its highest and hygiene enforcement must be absolute. The multi-axis brushing capacity combined with mandatory handwashing protocol ensures the system not only meets applicable hygiene standards but actively protects production line integrity at every controlled entry point.
