German term or phrase: "Aufsteigeschutz"
Bedingt durch die leicht schräge Fixierung der Farbmarkierung auf dem ** Aufsteigeschutz ** der XXXX Abruffütterungsstation ist eine optimale Entleerung der Spraydose gegeben.

The translation is about apparatus for applying a marking substance (called "keel" when I was a kid in Scotland) to the skin of animals such as pigs.

anti-climbing barrier
Explanation:
I doubt that there is an established term for this; I will be happy to have a feedlot builder/owner correct me!
But this would say what it does and be short and snappy - since we don't know what it is, a barrier like a gate, wire, ....anything further in the text? Should be, since it seems that the spray can is somehow connected/maybe actuated by it...

Notes to answerer
Asker: There is a "feed -on-demand station" and I think (incorporating your suggestion in my thinking) that the "Aufstiegschutz" could be a barrier to keep the animals from climbing up as they jostle for position to get at the feeding stuff. I have found "pile-up protection" but I think that refers to something for keeping fabric, say, from piling up.
