Maintenance Methods
Preventing Rust
Do not expose the turnstile to the following substances that might cause rust to happen:
Ions, sulfur oxide, acidic substances that contains HCL and H
2
SO
4
, or substances that produce
acidic substances (such as gas with SO
4
, salt, and HCLO) after dissolving in water will damage the
passive film on the stainless steel.
Substances like soot and dust will disturb the regeneration of the passive film on the stainless
steel.
Metal powder that mostly contains iron will stick to the stainless steel and get rusty.
Precautions
Cut off the power supply before cleaning the turnstile. Make sure that water will not contact the
components inside.
The detergent you use must not contain abrasive matter; otherwise the turnstile surface will be
damaged.
Clean along lines on the surface.
Maintaining and Cleaning the Surface
Use scour pads to clean the surface, apply stainless steel maintenance agent along the lines on
the surface, and then use scour pads to clean the surface again.
If certain rust cannot be removed, see the Precautions section above.
Removing Rust on the Surface
Use scour pads to clean the surface.
Spray stainless steel rust remover (we recommend WD40) on the surface
Use scour pads to clean the surface along the lines again.
Dip the scour pads in water, and then clean the surface along the lines.
When the surface is dry, apply anti-rust spray on the surface.
Do not touch the surface until the anti-rust spray is dry, which usually takes about three to
five hours.
Interior
Do not use water to clean the interior; otherwise the circuit might be shorted.
Disconnect the power supply, open the top panel, and then remove the dust inside the turnstile.
Check for silicon failure when the turnstile is installed outdoors with a face recognition device. If
yes, remove the silicon sealant, and then apply it again on a sunny day. We recommend using any
