Aqua ultra violet 57w UV - hard plumbed using a vectra m1 pump as a closed loop. Do you think this pump can draw water out of return chamber and push thru the UV and back to tank ?

Think the m1 can handle it or should I use a different closed loop pump?
 
A lot of people mention the flow rate through the UV is very important. If you can rate and adjust easy enough with M1 then go for it.
