Ugolini Arctic DX 12/2AA Twin-Bowl 24L Chilled Drink Dispenser
£896.00(£1,075.20 inc VAT)
Delivery Information
Price Match
The Ugolini Arctic DX 12/2AA is a counter-top chilled drink dispenser with two independent bowls giving a combined 24-litre capacity. It is designed for continuous, high-volume service of non-carbonated cold beverages — juices, cordials, iced teas, and similar still drinks — where a consistent, ready-to-serve product needs to be maintained throughout a service period without constant staff intervention.
Each bowl circulates liquid via a magnetically operated submersible pump, with a continuously running stirring paddle that keeps the temperature even and prevents juice-based drinks from separating or settling. In practice, this means the product in the bowl at the end of a busy breakfast service should look and taste the same as it did at the start — a detail that matters in buffet and self-service environments where presentation consistency is visible to guests.
From a day-to-day operational standpoint, the unit is designed to keep cleaning and maintenance straightforward:
- Removable food-grade bowls and faucets simplify daily cleaning and hygiene compliance
- Quick-dismantle construction keeps end-of-service strip-down manageable without specialist tools
- Hermetically sealed compressor reduces the likelihood of ongoing mechanical issues
- Stainless steel unibody construction holds up under regular commercial use
- Rubber tap is straightforward to operate during busy service and easy to sanitise
The dispenser is counter-mounted and connects to a standard electrical supply, so installation is generally uncomplicated. It is not suitable for carbonated drinks — operators running a mixed beverage offering should factor this into their equipment planning. Allow reasonable clearance around the unit on the service counter to make daily cleaning practical.
This model is well suited to hotel breakfast operations, café counters, buffet restaurants, and event catering setups where two flavours or drink types need to be served simultaneously at volume. For sites with a single-product offering, a single-bowl model may be sufficient. For very high-footfall or continuous-service environments, a heavier-duty unit with greater capacity may be worth considering.
If you are weighing up whether this capacity and configuration suits your service setup, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit.
Frequently asked questions
Is 24 litres of combined capacity enough for a busy hotel breakfast service?
For most hotel breakfasts serving up to around 100–150 covers, 24 litres across two bowls is generally workable provided staff can refill during service if needed. For larger operations or long unattended service windows, it is worth considering whether a higher-capacity unit would reduce the number of refills required.
Can this dispenser be used for carbonated drinks such as lemonade or sparkling juices?
No — the Arctic DX 12/2AA is designed specifically for non-carbonated still beverages. Using it with carbonated drinks is not recommended and could affect the pump and seals. Operators serving both still and sparkling drinks will need a separate solution for the carbonated side of the offering.
What does the day-to-day cleaning routine look like for this machine?
The bowls and faucets are removable and food-grade, which means they can be taken off at the end of service and cleaned separately without specialist equipment. The quick-dismantle design is intended to keep the daily clean-down practical for kitchen staff rather than time-consuming.
