Technical solutions

FBCN sizing for the Murici circuit checks three points on the curve: the operating point (near BEP), available NPSH with margin over required — critical with hot fluid or suction lift — and end-of-curve power, which protects the motor against overload in off-design operation. Technical fit in Murici points to FBE+FBEI and FBCN+FBOT as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. For melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana, the materials recommendation in Murici converges on AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere, a starting point adjustable based on field-observed corrosion. The technical profile of the sucroalcooleiro cluster near Murici involves sugarcane juice, vinasse, molasses and thermal oil for evaporators — 24/7 operation during harvest — information that guides preliminary sizing of FB series. Typical applications mapped for Murici include transferência de melaço, dosagem de aditivos, circulação de caldo and destilação — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. Technically, FBCN centrifugal pumps with flow up to 2,200 m³/h, head up to 135 m and temperature up to 260°C (thermal oil via FBOT up to 350°C) covers the typical range observed in Murici, with margin for process variants (start-up, by-pass, upset conditions). The FB model for Murici: 96h to 7 days logistics lead time, with the option to accelerate via air modal or alternative routing in operational emergencies.

Why FB Bombas

Murici: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Murici: belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state, a structural variable in the commercial offer. Observed seasonal pattern: concentrated harvest season (Apr-Nov) creates short maintenance windows and intense parts demand during milling. Murici follows the same rhythm as the nearby sucroalcooleiro cluster. The economic profile of Murici is agro (56.4% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 1.1 billion): typical local demand runs from process water to viscous processing fluids, a spectrum covered by FBCN and FBE. Technically, Murici shows high complexity in its fluid mix — diversified fluid roster — requires a broad catalogue of materials and sealing configurations. sucroalcooleiro plants in Murici sustain a continuous pipeline of technical demand — from scheduled replacement to ASME B73.1 dimensional retrofit replacing imported equipment. Given its state-level scale (among the 50 most populous cities in AL, maintains a relevant industrial base), Murici concentrates projects of varying complexity — making room for both standardized ASME B73.1 solutions and engineered-to-order. The fluid catalogue in Murici (melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. The sucroalcooleiro cluster around Murici concentrates applications juice circulation, molasses transfer, vinasse boost and thermal oil for evaporators — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. In Murici, FBFS fire-protection projects serve industrial buildings, commercial spaces and logistics warehouses with approval for state Fire Department and insurers. Use cases in Murici (series FBE+FBEI for transferência de melaço and dosagem de aditivos and series FBCN+FBOT for circulação de caldo and destilação) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region.

Logistics & support

Cabreúva-SP → Murici via BR-101 (via SE/BA) (1960 km): a corridor with regular FB freight history, supporting indivisible loads and sets with escort when the gauge demands. The factory-to-Murici dispatch includes technical packaging (impact protection, moisture sealing), multilingual documentation (PT/EN/ES when required) and approved-carrier tracking. For Murici, 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand. The distance to Murici opens room for multimodal routing — road + rail combination (where available) reduces total freight cost in high-volume projects. The BR-101, BR-104 and BR-316 mesh provides logistics redundancy for Murici — when one route is restricted (rains, construction, accidents), delivery is rerouted without compromising the critical lead time. For Murici, FB service follows the technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip model — application engineers conduct pre-scheduled visits while remote support via documentation and phone covers point queries.

Frequently Asked Questions about Murici

What is the maximum viscosity that FBE pumps can handle?

FBE external gear pumps can operate with fluids up to 100,000 SSU (approximately 22,000 cSt). For very high viscosities, rotation is reduced to maintain volumetric efficiency and component life. Engineering sizes each application in Murici according to the actual viscosity profile.

How long has FB Bombas been in the market?

FB Bombas has been manufacturing industrial pumps since 1944, with over 82 years of continuous experience. The factory in Cabreúva/SP operates with engineering, manufacturing and testing under one roof, ensuring total quality control on every unit supplied to Murici and all of Brazil.

Does FB Bombas serve cities neighboring Murici?

Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Murici with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.

Are FB pumps easy to maintain?

Yes. The FBE and FBCN lines were designed with easy access to wear-prone components, allowing disassembly and inspection with conventional tools. Detailed technical manuals and direct factory replacement parts availability simplify maintenance routines.

What is the emergency spare-parts lead time to Murici?

For critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings) during a plant shutdown in Murici, FB Bombas runs an emergency flow: pre-invoicing, priority dispatch and alternative modal (express road or air transport depending on distance and criticality). Typical lead time varies by region, with a window negotiable case by case. For customers with an installed base and scheduled PM, part of the stock can be kept on consignment at the plant.

Does the FBOT series serve thermal oil applications in Murici?

Yes. FBOT is FB Bombas’ specific centrifugal pump for thermal oil circuits, operating at elevated temperatures with fluids like Therminol, Dowtherm and similar. Material and sealing selection is done according to the maximum operating temperature and type of thermal oil.

Up to what temperature can FB Bombas pumps operate?

Each series has its thermal limit: with heating jacket and special sealing, FBE and FBEI reach 350°C; FBOT hits the same 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN goes up to 260°C when fitted with proper materials and sealing. Safe operation requires correctly sized sealing and materials.

Is it possible to replace an imported pump with an FB Bombas pump?

Yes. The process starts with FB Bombas' application engineering, which studies the installed pump's specifications — flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature — and indicates the dimensional or functional technical equivalence within our series. In Murici, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.

Does FB Bombas manufacture custom pumps?

Yes — the standard catalog is only the starting point. For special applications, FB Bombas engineers custom solutions: changes in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Before manufacturing, every special project is validated by engineering.

Can FB Bombas pumps be financed via BNDES / FINAME in Murici?

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Murici for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods) with preferential conditions for national industry. The commercial team provides the product FINAME code on the technical proposal for inclusion in the customer financial plan.
