From the D5 NEXT product page:
The flow rate from the D5 NEXT is an estimated value, and is best used to determine whether coolant is flowing or not.
As to the Barrowch flow sensor, regardless of accuracy, I would not get one as it will not readily integrate with the aquasuite.
Citation
Coolant flow
By constantly monitoring motor parameters and coolant temperature, a sophisticated algorithm is used by the controller unit to calculated the current coolant flow rate. The accuracy does not match the accuracy of an external flow sensor, but is entirely sufficient for monitoring purposes. Alternatively, a mechanical flow sensor can be connected to the fan output for a more accurate flow measurement.

The Eisdeck D5 Brass Top product page claims compatibility with aquacomputer D5 PWM.
The aquacomputer D5 PWM product page claims a pump diameter of 66mm
Which appears to be the same diameter as the aquacomputer D5 NEXT
Which leads me to believe two D5 NEXTs could be mounted next to each other on an Eisdeck D5 Brass Top.
Confirmation from Alphacool may be prudent.
Technical details
- Compatibility: Alphacool Eispumpe VPP755, Alphacool VPP655, Watercool D5/PWM, Aqua Computer D5/PWM
The aquacomputer D5 PWM product page claims a pump diameter of 66mm
Technical details:
Dimensions (Diameter x Height): 66 x 57 mm (without cables)
Which appears to be the same diameter as the aquacomputer D5 NEXT
Technical details
Dimensions without attached cables, without decoupling: ca. 66 x 65 x 75 mm
Which leads me to believe two D5 NEXTs could be mounted next to each other on an Eisdeck D5 Brass Top.
Confirmation from Alphacool may be prudent.

No tipping, just pay-forward and answer someone else's question when you have knowledge to share.
Indeed!

About the flow meter
Yes, this is the one I linked to. Unfortunately not good for Barrowch. I will check myself how good it is, up against eg. High Flow Next..Wish the Barrowch with golden edges didn't match my incoming golden 16mm Bitspower brasstubes so well. ^,^ :/

Thanks for your research on this. I've asked Alphacool, awaiting answer.. The pump diameter I suppose is a standard for D5, but I thought the D5 Next is a little wider on top due to electronics.. I know of a few circumstances where it won't fit. But the housings on Eisdecke seem to be sufficiently spaced. I will post the answer from AC.
Alphacool forwarded me to Aquacomputer. Here's the answer from them:
-------------------------------------------
Hello,
they should fit.
But the Problem is we don´t know if the controller unit fits side by side.
The D5 NEXT controller unit is 66,2 mm wide, see the attached technical drawing.
kind regards
Benjamin Fiedler
-------------------------------------------
I will probably buy both D5 Next and Eisdecke Dual as I think the housings are sufficiently spaced.. I'll post my own findings regarding D5 Next / this top in the end.

I am confused, Alphacool knows the dimensions of the D5 NEXT and yet can not say for sure if it fits?
As soon as you have the dimensions of the Eisdecke Dual, it is quite safe to say.
This does not reflect well on Alphacool.
Sorry I guess I could have been clearer, but as said Alphacool forwarded me to Aquacomputer as they said they didn't know the dimensions of D5 Next. That quoted reply is from Aquacomputer.
Btw, another interesting question on the D5 Next. There's some reports that it has been fragile... Is this really as bad as told of, or has there been done any improvements on the build quality so far in any case, on later batches? Anybody have any insight on this?

If you connect the water pumps in parallel, the flow will increase and the lift will not,Increased pressure in the pipeline means an increased risk of leakage.
be careful with it
Almost all these dual tops connects pumps in series as far as I can tell, including the Eisdecke, only increasing head-pressure and redundancy, which is what I need.
