Quad Cooltube Pancake by UBC Group: Next-Generation Beverage Cooling Technology
The Pancake CoolTube by UBC Group is a patented breakthrough in beverage cooling, engineered to redefine how primary and secondary cooling systems perform. Built specifically for modern draught systems using python recirculation lines, this compact solution maximizes cooling efficiency across all coolant types—delivering performance that significantly outpaces traditional heat exchangers.
Why Pancake CoolTube Stands Out
Ultra-Compact, High-Performance Design
The Pancake CoolTube is much smaller and lighter than traditional heat exchangers, taking up over 12 times less space while still keeping cooling strong and consistent. It’s a smart fit for tight installations where space is limited and efficiency really counts.
Multi-Line Cooling Flexibility
The 4-way CoolTube setup allows you to run up to four product lines at once. With an optional control valve, you can fine-tune the temperature of each line individually, it gives you better control, making it perfect for serving different beverages from the same system.
Universal System Compatibility
Compatible with all common cooling mediums, the Pancake CoolTube fits easily into both new and existing draught beer and beverage systems, so you can upgrade your setup without any major changes
Technical Specifications
- Product Lines: 4 outputs
- Pipe Material: 316 grade stainless steel
- Component Material: 304 grade stainless steel
Key Advantages for Bars, Breweries and Installers
Superior Temperature Exchange (Delta T)
Provides more efficient cooling than standard heat exchangers, so every pour comes out at a consistently optimal temperature.
No Coils Required with Sub-Zero Systems
When paired with UBC’s 2Flow or 4Flow sub-zero ice solutions, the system eliminates the need for traditional product coils simplifying installations and reducing system complexity.
Consistent Pour Temperature
Thanks to minimal internal product volume and advanced heat transfer design, beverages are delivered within 1–2°C of python recirculation temperature, ensuring consistent quality from first pour to last.
Designed for Real-World Installations
Flexible Placement Options
Install in cellars, cold rooms or directly beneath the beer tower (font). Its compact footprint allows for installation exactly where it’s needed.
No Mounting Required
You can place the unit without fixing it, and a mounting bracket is included if needed.
Energy-Efficient and Silent Operation
Unlike traditional shelf coolers, the Pancake CoolTube:
- Requires no electrical connection for secondary cooling
- Produces zero heat output
- Operates silently-ideal for maintaining a comfortable back bar environment
Low Maintenance, Less Waste
With an internal volume of approximately 46 ml, the Pancake CoolTube:
- Minimizes product loss during cleaning cycles
- Requires virtually no maintenance
- Reduces operational costs over time
Advanced Cooling Surface Design
Engineered for maximum efficiency, the system provides:
- Over 4x greater cooling surface area per ml compared to standard heat exchangers
- Cooling performance equivalent to 32 meters of traditional product coil
Built for the Future of Draught Beverage Systems
The Pancake CoolTube by UBC Group takes beverage dispensing to the next level. With its compact design, energy efficiency, and precise cooling, it’s a smart choice for breweries, bars, restaurants and installers who want better performance without added system complexity.
