The Arctic Air ACP55 Ten Pan Countertop Prep Station is a professional refrigerated ingredient rail designed for restaurants, pizzerias, sandwich shops, cafés, delis, cafeterias, food trucks, and commercial kitchens that require organized refrigerated ingredient storage and efficient food preparation. Designed to accommodate ten 1/6-size food pans, the ACP55 combines durable stainless steel construction with dependable refrigeration to help operators maintain food safety while improving kitchen workflow and productivity.
Constructed for demanding commercial environments, the Arctic Air ACP55 features a full stainless steel exterior and interior, providing exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and easy cleaning. Its compact 55-inch countertop design installs easily on existing prep tables and workstations, allowing operators to maximize available workspace without sacrificing valuable floor space.
The unit comes complete with ten 1/6-size x 6-inch deep stainless steel food pans, adjustable divider bars, stainless steel pan supports, matching lids, and a durable hinged stainless steel cover. This versatile configuration allows operators to organize fresh vegetables, meats, cheeses, sauces, toppings, condiments, and prepared ingredients for faster and more efficient food assembly. It is ideal for pizza preparation, sandwich assembly, salad stations, taco lines, burger restaurants, poke bowls, and custom food preparation applications.
The Arctic Air ACP55 utilizes an efficient cold-wall refrigeration system that evenly distributes cooling throughout the ingredient rail while maintaining temperatures between 33°F and 41°F. This temperature range helps preserve ingredient freshness and supports food safety during daily operation. An electronic thermostat with an external digital LED temperature display allows operators to accurately monitor and adjust temperatures with ease.
Powered by an environmentally friendly R600a hydrocarbon refrigerant, the ACP55 delivers energy-efficient refrigeration while reducing environmental impact. The self-contained refrigeration system is designed for dependable commercial performance and operates using a standard 115V electrical connection, making installation simple in virtually any commercial kitchen.
The included stainless steel hinged pan cover protects ingredients during slower service periods and overnight storage, helping maintain freshness while minimizing contamination. For customer-facing food preparation areas, an optional glass sneeze guard is available to provide additional product protection while maintaining product visibility.
Designed to maximize productivity, the Arctic Air ACP55 keeps refrigerated ingredients within arm's reach, allowing kitchen staff to reduce movement, speed up food preparation, and maintain organized workstations during high-volume service. Its countertop footprint makes it an excellent choice for operations that require expanded refrigerated prep capacity without investing in a full refrigerated prep table.
The ACP55 is tested to NSF Standard 7 requirements for open food storage and is built to meet the rigorous demands of professional foodservice operations. Like other cold-wall refrigerated prep rails, the unit requires manual daily defrosting by shutting the unit off after service to maintain optimal refrigeration performance and long-term reliability.
Whether preparing pizzas, sandwiches, wraps, salads, tacos, burgers, or other made-to-order menu items, the Arctic Air ACP55 provides reliable refrigerated ingredient storage while improving workflow, food safety, and kitchen efficiency. Its commercial-grade construction, generous ten-pan capacity, and dependable refrigeration make it an excellent addition to restaurants, cafés, pizzerias, delis, and institutional kitchens.
