Two pumps together.

I would not assume so, but maybe. Magnetic fields decay with distance exponentially, so putting them directly beside each other (touching) might cause influence on each other. This could theoretically pull one of the motors or impellers aside causing premature wear. IF this happens, it is hard to say how much additional wear this might cause. You could perhaps start the one pump up while holding the other and see if there is any jarring in the pump you're holding. I would think any influence would cause a pull on the other pumps components that would wear them out too quickly, but that is really just a guess.

I had 2 ocean runner 2500 & 2 marine land 1200 running in my sump all with in the same chamber for well over a year with zero issues, still have them but not in the sump anymore.

Dan thanks! that is my concern as well. Depending on how, where and how close [i] pleace the pumps from each other the 2000 gets very loud. I am guessing Magnetic fields. what I did was place a filter pad between them and now the noice is gone> however just want to be sure am not going to wreck my pumps.

regards.
