Ugolini Arctic DX 12/3AA 36 Litre 3-Bowl Chilled Drink Dispenser

The Ugolini Arctic DX 12/3AA is a countertop chilled drink dispenser with three independent bowls and a combined 36-litre capacity. It is designed for continuous cold service of non-carbonated beverages — juices, iced teas, flavoured water, cordials — allowing operators to present multiple varieties simultaneously at a consistent chill throughout the service period.

Each bowl uses a submersible circulation pump rather than relying on surface contact alone. In practice this means the machine maintains temperature reliably as bowls are drawn down and refilled during service, rather than allowing warmer liquid added at the top to sit uncooled. A stirring paddle in each bowl keeps pulpy or mixed drinks homogeneous, which is a genuine operational consideration for juice-based products that separate over time.

From a daily operations standpoint, the machine is straightforward for front-of-house staff to manage:

• Three independent bowls allow different drinks to run simultaneously without cross-contamination
• Removable food-grade bowls and faucets simplify end-of-day cleaning
• Hermetically sealed compressor reduces the likelihood of ongoing maintenance issues
• Stainless steel construction supports durability under regular daily use
• No plumbing connection required, giving flexibility over counter placement

Installation requires only a standard mains electrical supply and reasonable clearance around the condenser for ventilation. Bowls are filled manually rather than via a water line, which keeps siting flexible but does mean a refilling routine needs to be in place during longer service periods — this is worth factoring in for high-footfall events or extended buffet runs.

This model is well suited to hotels, cafés, staff canteens, buffet operations, and event catering settings where a reliable multi-variety cold drinks display is needed without a plumbed installation. It sits in the mid-capacity range, and sites with very high footfall or a need for larger individual bowl volumes may find a higher-capacity alternative more appropriate.
