Centrifugal pumps for projects in Epitaciolândia, Acre

It depends on the series. The catalogue for the FBE external gear pump lists oils in general, greases, asphalt, diesel oil, kerosene, paints, varnishes, resins and solvents, as well as lubrication systems and hydraulic equipment. The FBEI internal gear pump is intended for high-viscosity liquids. The FBCN and FBME handle clean or turbid liquids, and the FBOT handles organic thermal oils free of abrasive particles and of substances that chemically attack the pump. For the process in Epitaciolândia, state the composition, temperature, viscosity and solids content; fluids with suspended solids must be assessed by FB engineering.

FB Bombas reports a registration in the Petrobras supplier registry (CRC, formerly CRCC). It is a supplier registration, not a product certification; validity and supply families appear on the current certificate, provided on request. Technical standards depend on the series: mechanical construction per ASME B73.1 for the FBCN, NFPA 20 or ABNT NBR 16704 for FBFS fire pump sets when the project requires it, and API 610 for engineered-to-order projects. These bodies publish standards; they do not certify the company. Tests and certificates for each supply are defined in the proposal.

Lead time to Epitaciolândia depends on the model, configuration and transport. Several FBE models are kept in stock; availability and expected dispatch for each item are confirmed in the quotation. State the destination and the date you need so that the proposal also defines freight and delivery responsibilities.

By replacement, not refurbishment. FB Bombas replaces the old pump with a new, complete FB pump manufactured in Cabreúva, Brazil. Before the order, engineering assesses the installation and issues a data sheet and dimensional drawing; the drawing confirms whether the existing baseplate and piping can be kept or need adaptation. FB does not refurbish other manufacturers’ pumps, sell third-party parts or reuse the installed casing. For FB pumps in service, it supplies original parts and maintenance contracts.

Yes, once equivalence has been confirmed. FB Bombas replaces the installed pump with a complete FB pump and, before the order, assesses the installation and sends a data sheet and dimensional drawing. For the installation in Epitaciolândia, send the identification and drawing of the current pump, with its duty point, fluid, materials and drive; origin or a similar designation does not guarantee direct replacement.

FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer with direct service from its factory in Cabreúva. To compare an alternative for the project in Epitaciolândia, check performance, materials, dimensions, documentation and commercial conditions. Brazilian origin alone does not guarantee lower cost, shorter lead time or technical equivalence.

The portfolio includes pumping sets for fire protection systems. Provide the project, duty point, drive arrangement and required standards and acceptance criteria. Compliance must be checked for the supplied set; standards such as NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 are not certificates issued for the entire company.

It depends on the model and the duty point; there is no single efficiency figure for the brand. The FBCN and FBME characteristic curves show the efficiency of each model and, for stainless-steel impellers with passages up to 15 mm, the FBCN manual deducts 2 or 3 points from the curve efficiency (Table 4). For the project in Epitaciolândia, compare the absorbed power at the process flow, head and fluid, also considering drive, control and operating duty.

Send the series and model of the pump installed in Epitaciolândia, the operating conditions and the available vibration records; the standard, measurement points and limits are defined for the assembly, with no single limit for every pump. Check the alignment first: the FBEI (MAN001-10) and FBME (MSERV-08/01) manuals identify pump-to-motor misalignment as a source of vibration and premature wear and call for realignment after final installation, because transport usually misaligns the set, which leaves the factory pre-aligned; the stated tolerance is under 0.05 mm radial and 0.6° angular, according to the coupling supplier.

No: manual MTEC-03/00 states mechanical construction per ASME B73.1, not dimensional compliance with that standard. So, before a replacement in Epitaciolândia, interchangeability with the existing pump is checked on each model’s drawing, together with the duty point, materials and drive.
