That sound is not normal. sounds like a vibrating roller. I have 2 ideas that would make it quieter. I've never ran the pump dry (without fluid being pushed through the tube). perhaps a roller is vibrating on it's axis and needs fluid in the tube in order to provide some resistance on the tube.
AS for taking the rotor off, you can't, the lower bearing is pressed in and will not come off without damaging it.
Try pumping fluid through it and see if it quiets down....
It's horizontal in Sisterlimonpot's newest video though.Does seem that something may be amiss then. I did try with and without liquid, made no difference. I wonder if orientation matters. I will try mounting it vertically and see.
This is sound advice for any new product. No matter how much testing and verifying gets done virtually every company will have something slip through the cracks or encounter unexpected issues with production QC.Please keep us posted. The info leading up to the release was quite exciting. A good friend of mine (and huge ETM fanboy) strongly urged me to wait at least a year before buying one, reminding me of all the problems that the original vectra releases had. It’s been hard to show self restraint, but I’ve got a good year or so worth masterflex tubing left to use up
Yes I’ll try that. Noise doesn't seem to be coming from the drillers, more from the gear assembly.
something is wrong. We’ll get you straightened out Tuesday, really sorry.
Well dang that’s pretty awesome support. take note, Neptune syssomething is wrong. We’ll get you straightened out Tuesday, really sorry.

The few times I’ve needed it I’ve had very good support from Neptune.Will the versa ever be able to talk to the the trident? I would buy one today if they could play along.

As far as talking to the Trident goes I suspect that will happen sometime between an eternity and never. Ecotech has made it very clear that they are not making their products compatible with the Neptune Apex or any other controllers. (They didn’t even include an industry-standard 0-10V port on the Vectra pumps.) They’re trying to lock you in to their ecosystem, which is too bad, as Ecotech does have some nice products, but it’s exceedingly rare that any one company has all the products that best meet anyone’s needs.
And outlet strip, and probes...Well I guess that just means ecotech needs to come out with their own testing device
Here’s 70 ml/min so you can decide for yourself LOL. There’s the typical whirring sounds but also some gear ‘grinding’ noises. Perhaps those will decline as the unit breaks in.
That’s so sad. I guess I’m forced to buy a Dos. Not doing auto water changes so hopefully the noise isn’t too deafening. Maybe apex will make a ca rx pump at some point.The few times I’ve needed it I’ve had very good support from Neptune.
