I need a pump that really silent, for those that have this pump is it silent?
Would it be enough to run 3 BRS reactors, UV and NU-Clear filter?
 
I have one it is silent. As far as enough flow I have no idea. How many gph are you trying to flow through each? The uv in particular? Also the plumbing for all of the above will need to be calculated as for head pressure loss. Hope this helps.
 
The varios pumps are awesome, and dead silent. Are you wanting to use it as a return AND push water through all that gear off a manifold? It's hard to say what it can do without knowing your specific setup. I'd imagine it could, as I ran a single Varios 4 for a little bit as my return pump that fed 3 tanks off a single sump, but it was maxed out. I upgraded to the Varios 8 and that things is awesome too!

Hi so this would just be used for the Manifold.
Here what will be coming off the Manifold
1/2" BRS Reactor
1/2" BRS Reactor
1/2" BRS Reactor
3/4" UV
1" NU-Clear Filter

All the equipment is right next to the sump and where the pump will be. It will have several 90s. The reactors are all fairly low flow. I would assume less than 15 GPH. I don't know about the other 2.

Thanks
 
I have a VarioS-4 as my return pump. I am truly amazed by its silence and complete lack of vibration. I think it has more than enough power to do what you want and then some.
