COPELAND® SCROLL®
COMPRESSORThe Copeland scroll compressor is the key to efficiency for this Rheem model. It’s the latest in high-efficiency compressor technology.The advanced scroll compressor offers low noise and vibrationcharacteristics and features tolerance to liquid refrigerant and systemcontamination. The Copeland Scroll also has low start torque,eliminating start problems in the field. And its unique design enablesthe RPPB- heat pump to perform efficiently, quietly and reliably.
For all season home comfort, performance and energy conservation, choose a Rheem RPPB- Series Heat Pump and RBHK- SeriesAir Handler.
More than a reverse cycle air conditioner, it’s a specially designed combination Winter/Summer comfort system using a single indoor coilfor heating and cooling.
To choose an RBHK- Air Handler designed for use with the RPPB- Heat Pump, refer to the Performance Data Tables and/or the airhandler specification sheet.

*Standard line sizeNOTES:➀ This chart is applicable for heat pumps.➁ 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 verticalseparation of 93 feet [28.35 m] utilizing a 3/8" [9.53 mm] liquid line: Table = 72 feet [21.95 m] maximumvertical 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 reduceto a #85 piston). Increase the outdoor flow-check piston 2 + 2 = 4 sizes (For example, a #56 would increaseto a #60).
➂ Do not exceed 120 feet [36.58 m] maximum vertical separation.➃ No changes are required for expansion valve coils.➄ Do not exceed table values for capillary tube coils.➅ Always use the smallest liquid line possible to minimize system charge.➆ For heat pumps with vertical separation: • Route liquid line outside building • Do not insulate liquid line.➇ Chart may be used to size horizontal runs.
NOTES:➀ This chart is applicable for heat pumps. Heat pumps with any vertical
separation require the use of standard line sizes only, due to the possibilityof 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].
➁ 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 linelength of 150 feet [45.72 m] when using the 5/16" [7.94 mm] liquid line size.No vertical separation allowed.
➂ Do not exceed vertical separation as indicated on the chart.➃ Always use the smallest liquid line possible to minimize system charge.➄ No changes required for flow-check pistons or expansion valve coils.

NOTES: Capacity Multiplier x Rated Capacity = Actual Capacity.Additional compressor oil is not required for runs up to 150 feet [45.72 m].Oil traps in vertical runs are not required for any height up to 125 feet [38.10 m]. See Liquid Line chart for Vertical Separation Requirements and Limitations.*Adapter to 11/8" [28.58 mm] factory supplied.
