4 way mixing valves

in THE MAIN WALL
Of all the motorized 4-way mixing valves out there, which are the quietest?  The sizing calls for a Danfoss 065B8986  1 1/4 inch with the 62 motor so that's my reference.

    None of them are QUIET...

    I guess if I had to choose one, it would be Tekmar.



    If it's mechanical and electrical, it WILL make some noise.



    Why the need for silence? Circulators and boilers make more noise than motorized valves do...Just curious.

    why

    One hates to admit that the reason for the question is ignorance, but that would be the honest answer.  I'm upgrading my heating system to reduce various noises and vibration coming from the boiler room and I have never heard a 4 way mixing valve in action.  The engineer that I'm working with suggested a Heatlink instead of Danfoss as he thinks it might be quieter, so I'm just taking a cue from him and worrying about it.  Perhaps needlessly, as you suggest.  Thanks.
