A beverage dispenser (10) comprises a housing (11) which defines a cooling chamber (12) and has dispensing nozzles (16A-D) mounted thereon, a water line (14) positioned in the bottom of the cooling chamber (12) for communicating water to the dispensing nozzles (16A-D), product lines (25-28) mounted in the front of the cooling chamber (12) for communicating product to the dispensing valves (16A-D), a refrigeration unit (13) mounted over the cooling chamber (12) which includes an evaporator coil (35) extending into the cooling chamber (12), and an agitator motor (37) mounted over the cooling chamber (12) for driving an impeller located within the cooling chamber (12). The cooling chamber (12) contains a cooling fluid, a portion of which freezes about the evaporator coil (35) during operation of the refrigeration unit (13) to form a frozen cooling fluid slab. A frozen cooling fluid bank controller controls the size of the frozen cooling fluid slab, while mounting of the controller's probe (39) to the side of the evaporator coil (35) facing the front of the housing (11) prevents the frozen cooling fluid slab from freezing to envelope the product lines (25-28).

Distributeur de boissons (10) comportant une enceinte (11) délimitant une chambre de réfrigération (12), et sur laquelle sont montées des buses de distribution (16A-D); une ligne d'amenée d'eau placée à la base de la chambre (12), et amenant l'eau aux buses de distribution (16A-D), des lignes d'amenée de produits (25, 28) placées à l'avant de la chambre (12) et amenant les différentes boissons aux buses (16A-D), une unité de réfrigération (13) montée dans la chambre (12) dans laquelle s'étend un serpentin évaporateur (35), et un moteur de brassage (37) placé au sommet de la chambre (12) et entraînant un agitateur à ailettes placé dans la chambre (12). La chambre de refroidissement (12) contient un fluide de refroidissement dont une partie gèle au contact du serpentin (35) lorsque l'unité de réfrigération (13) fonctionne et forme une plaque de fluide de réfrigération congelé. Les dimensions de la plaque sont déterminées par un contrôleur de limites de plaque congelée dont le capteur (39) monté sur le côté de l'évaporateur face à l'enceinte (11) empêche la plaque de fluide gelé d'envelopper les lignes d'amenée de produits (25-28).
