Sequence Dart & Pan World/Blueline comparison

Does anyone have experience with both? I have a Pan World 100PX-X and am happy with it. But I'm wondering if the Dart is any quieter before adding a new closed loop pump...

Well a Dart is spinning at half the speed that your pan world is, but my iwaki md-40 is pretty quiet, so I don't know if it'll quiet things down too much.


Noise aside however, if you went with a dart/snapper, then you would gain some flow and probably save some wattage. You don't really need to be using the pan world in a CL situation, as there really isn't too much head to deal with.

Thanks

For the reply. The only reason I'm considering a second 100PX-X is as a standby if the main pump goes. In that case the Dart would not be as effective.
