ACHIEVER 12 HIGH
EFFICIENCY HEAT PUMP
OUTDOOR UNITS
The Ruud UPMC- Achiever 12 Heat Pump Outdoor units
can provide year-round heating and cooling comfort for
residential, multi-family and light commercial applications.
They are designed to operate with Ruud indoor units with
cooling and heating capacities certified under the ARI
Certification program.
The Ruud UBHC- and UBHK- Air Handlers equipped with
auxiliary heating elements for supplementary heat was
designed especially for use with the UPMC- Heat Pump.
Together they provide systems capable of delivering a
maximum HSPF (Heating Seasonal Performance Factor)
of 8.65 in the heating mode or a maximum standard
S.E.E.R. (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) of 13.85 in the
cooling mode.
The following additional features, plus its energy-saving
characteristics, make the UPMC- Heat Pump outdoor unit
an excellent choice for new construction or upgrading your
present system.
Attractive, louvered wrap around jacket protects coil from
weather extremes and yard hazards. Top grille is steel
reinforced for extra strength. Cabinet is powder painted
for all weather protection.
Four sided outdoor coil design allows compressor operation with access panel removed.
Air is discharged upward away from bushes and shrubs.
The discharge pattern of the top grille provides minimum
air restriction, resulting in quiet fan operation.
Exclusive Combination Grille/Motor Mount* secures the
fan motor to the underside of the discharge grille. The
grille protects the motor windings and bearings from rain
and snow.
All controls are accessible by removing one service
panel. Removable top grille provides access to the outdoor fan motor and outdoor coil.
Compressor compartment offers additional protection
from the elements and reduces operating noise.
Single speed, 6-pole fan motor is designed for low
speed, quieter, energy-saving operation.
Non-cycling reversing valve and demand defrost.
*Patented.

Engineering Features
UPMC- Series Heat Pump Outdoor Unit
1. Scroll Compressoris hermetically sealed and incorporates internal
high temperature motor overload protection, and durable insulation on
the motor windings. It is externally mounted on rubber grommets to
reduce vibration and noise.
2. Copper Tube/Aluminum Fin CoilsBoth indoor and outdoor coils.
3. Strong, Attractive CabinetConstructed of powder painted steel.
Louvered design protects the coil from damage.
4. Internal Check ValveProvides for more quiet refrigerant metering.
5. Refrigerant MeteringExpansion valves accurately meter refrigerant into indoor and outdoor coils.
6. Manual Reset High Pressure ControlDeactivates system if
abnormally high pressure occurs.
7. Drawn, painted base panfor extra corrosion resistance and sound
reduction.
8. Hard Start ComponentsOffer additional starting torque to cover
a wide range of voltage and pressure variations.
9. PTC Self-Regulating Crankcase Heaters (only on 3 phase
models)Conserve energy.
10. Demand Defrost ControlProvides complete defrost when defrost
is required.
11. Non-Cycling Reversing ValveEliminates discharge noises on
each heating cycle.
12. Hot Gas MufflerReduces noise in heating cycle.
13. Suction Line AccumulatorProvides protection for the compressor.
14. Bi-Directional Filter DrierProvided on all models.
15. Service valves are standard on all models.

All controls and compressor are accessible

for servicing by removal of the service panel.

Convenience Features

Drawn Painted Base Pan.

The scroll compressor models (single phase only),

additionally have a 10 year compressor warranty as
standard.
All refrigerant connections are on the exterior of the unit, located close
to the ground for neat appearing installations.
Coil design permits compressor operation with the access panel
removed.
Control box is fully accessible in the upper part of the cabinet, just
under the access panel.
Power and control wiring are kept separate.
Every unit is factory charged and tested.

Accessories

Low Ambient ControlAllows low temperature operation in the

cooling cycle down to 0F [-17.8C] outdoor temperature. It is
recommended that this control be installed in units to be operated for
cooling at outdoor ambient temperatures under 65F [18C].
(Model No. RXPZ-C01)

Outdoor Thermostats
RXPT-A01One outdoor thermostat in box.
RXPT-A02One outdoor thermostat for mounting in box
RXPT-A01 or A03.
RXPT-A03One outdoor thermostat with emergency Heat Relay
wired and mounted in box.
RXPT-A04Two outdoor thermostats with emergency Heat Relay
wired and mounted in box.

Heat Pump MonitorIndicates inefficient operation or malfunction of

heat pump. (Model No. RXPM-B01)

Thermostats and SubbasesAvailable through PROSTOCK.

Compressor Time Delay ControlCompressor will remain off for

five minutes after power or thermostat interruption, allowing system
pressures to equalize. Starting during high pressure conditions can
result in shortened compressor life. (Model No. RXMD-B01)

Ruud Heat Pump System

This drawing is for illustrative purposes only. It is not intended to be used as an installation guide.

For all season home comfort, performance and energy conservation, choose a Ruud UPMC- Series Heat Pump and UBHK- Series
Air Handler.
More than a reverse cycle air conditioner, its a specially designed combination Winter/Summer comfort system using an indoor coil for
heating and cooling.
To choose an UBHK- Air Handler designed for use with the UPMC- Heat Pump, refer to the Performance Data Tables and/or the air
handler specification sheet.

COPELAND SCROLL
COMPRESSOR
The Copeland scroll compressor is the key to efficiency for this Ruud
model. Its the latest in high-efficiency compressor technology. The
advanced scroll compressor offers low noise and vibration
characteristics and features tolerance to liquid refrigerant and system
contamination. The Copeland Scroll also has low start torque,
eliminating start problems in the field. And its unique design enables
the UPMC- heat pump to perform efficiently, quietly and reliably.

*Standard line size

NOTES:
This chart is applicable for heat pumps.
If the separation height exceeds the table values, increase the outdoor flow-check piston two sizes plus one
size for each additional 10 feet [3.05 m].
Example 1: A 5 ton [17.58 kW] heat pump with a total line length of 100 feet [30.48 m] with a vertical
separation of 93 feet [28.35 m] utilizing a 3/8" [9.53 mm] liquid line: Table = 72 feet [21.95 m] maximum
vertical separation for 100 feet [30.48 m] run. Separation exceeds table by (93-72) = 21 feet [6.40 m].
Therefore, reduce the indoor coil flow-check piston 2 + 2 = 4 sizes (For example, a #89 piston would reduce
to a #85 piston). Increase the outdoor flow-check piston 2 + 2 = 4 sizes (For example, a #56 would increase
to a #60).
Do not exceed 120 feet [36.58 m] maximum vertical separation.
No changes are required for expansion valve coils.
Do not exceed table values for capillary tube coils.
Always use the smallest liquid line possible to minimize system charge.
For heat pumps with vertical separation: Route liquid line outside building Do not insulate liquid line.
Chart may be used to size horizontal runs.

37 [11.28] 34 [10.36] 31 [9.45]

NOTES:
This chart is applicable for heat pumps. Heat pumps with any vertical
separation require the use of standard line sizes only, due to the possibility of
charge imbalance between heating and cooling modes.
Example 1: A 3 ton [10.55 kW] heat pump with a total line length of 50 feet
[15.24 m] can have a maximum vertical separation of 19 feet [5.79 m]. Do not
increase line size to 3/8" [9.53 mm].
This chart may also be used to size horizontal runs.
Example 2: A 1.5 ton [5.28 kW] heat pump can have a total horizontal line
length of 150 feet [45.72 m] when using the 5/16" [7.94 mm] liquid line size.
No vertical separation allowed.
Do not exceed vertical separation as indicated on the chart.
Always use the smallest liquid line possible to minimize system charge.
No changes required for flow-check pistons or expansion valve coils.
