ps: the bubble noise are co2 which seems to be normal cause i use the filter as a reactor

Hard to tell from the audio... there might be some air trapped in there - try and tilt the canister slightly and slowly back and forth... Worked for me in the past when using canister filters and had noise due to trapped air.

Possibly. If its leaking you should definitely unplug it, find the cause and fix it immediately - What brand/model is this?

Could be a build up of C02 in the filter which isnt a good thing.

Sound like there is something rattling? Could be an air bubble and or Impeller out of balance, broken impeller shaft? To much play in the joints, some pumps have their shaft in little rubber caps, which might be something out of line or worn.

Just a few details to look for...

the shaft is good, not sure about the impeller, is a canister totally silent or is it normal to hear it 10 meters away ?

No that is not normal... If it's leaking, only when you move it. still says it has a leaking seal. When this leak is at the suction side of the pump then it could be infiltrated air. It leaks opposite it doesn't spill water but sucks in the air... Fix this leak...

If it still rattles after this, check the impellers play, up and down. If you can't check this manually then find a small washer that fits over the shaft, put this over the impeller shaft to reduce the axial play.

Eden 501 geluid?

Mijn vandaag aangesloten eden 501 buitenfiltertje maakt een naar geluid. 2 soorten eigenlijk: Een soort lage zoem maar ook een wat hoger ratelend geluid, erg vervelend in ieder geval. Heeft iemand hier ervaring mee/last van?

The last post in the thread, translated.

The Eden 501 also made a rattling noise for me, which was quite annoying. I was able to remedy this to a very large extent by removing the axle and placing a very thin ring on it and placing it back. I made that ring from a piece of hose that came with the filter. The ring I placed on it was I think 1 to 2 mm thick. Maybe this is of some use to you? Click me...

Then I also have to refer back to the rubber cap on the shaft placed at both ends bushings. Did you lose this during a cleaning? Then the shaft looks good but still has radial play... Check if it needs this... I don't know about this Eden but have seen other pumps that have it.

Where is it leaking from ? You might want to take it apart and re-assemble it - making sue all the rubber sealing are not twisted etc. That may stop the leak and solve the noise issue. more details on the eden 521 filter

I've owned many different canister filters back in the day... some made a bit of noise yes, but not enough for you to hear it 10 meters or 30 feet away in a normal house hold environment.

Leak is only at o-ring, I can't find any on the internet, I'm going to use teflon-PTFE underneath the seal, i'll do the same think in the impeller entry chamber (sorry for my english)

Sounds like a plan!
