Technical solutions

What defines the FBE external gear pump in Fonte Boa is its behavior under variable pressure: being positive displacement, flow follows speed and practically ignores backpressure swings in the line — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. Two installation requirements follow from this physics: a sized relief valve on the discharge and, for fluids that harden when cold, a heating jacket on the pump body. Material selection for óleos industriais and água industrial in Fonte Boa considers austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion — a specification FB Bombas details on a matweb sheet after fluid chemical analysis. In Fonte Boa, transferência geral and utilidades are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. Fonte Boa typically calls for FBEI and FBCN — an initial recommendation based on local productFit, dominant industrial cluster and identified fluid profile; final technical approval is refined by application engineering. Fonte Boa receives equipment after hydraulic testing and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — traceable report attached to the Data Book.

Why FB Bombas

The low fluid-complexity profile in Fonte Boa (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. Fonte Boa shows a high industrial density — multiple plants in a small radius, meaningful cumulative demand pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). In Fonte Boa, value added is dominated by services (20.6%, IBGE 2021), with a 2023 GDP of R$ 324 million — a profile where pumping demand concentrates on building infrastructure, sanitation, HVAC and utilities, FBCN centrifugal territory. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Fonte Boa demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project. Fonte Boa among the 50 most populous cities in AM, maintains a relevant industrial base — a scale that translates into regular demand for rotating equipment. Typical use cases identified for Fonte Boa: series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades. For engineered-to-order projects in Fonte Boa, FB Bombas offers custom solutions — mounted skids, mobile sets (diesel/electric trailer) and retrofit of legacy equipment.

Logistics & support

Logistics lead time to Fonte Boa is 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 3084 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Fonte Boa via BR-174 (via RR) / acesso fluvial — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. The technical-service model in Fonte Boa is structured as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip. For Fonte Boa, FB dispatch is preceded by: hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run with curve points, G2.5 dynamic balancing and Data Book closure — all traceable by serial number.

Frequently Asked Questions about Fonte Boa

What types of pumps does FB Bombas manufacture?

FB Bombas manufactures four major lines: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for lubricating fluids, FBCN (normalized centrifugal) for water and low-viscosity fluids, and FBOT (specific centrifugal) for thermal oil circuits. We also serve fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA and NBR 16704.

What types of fluids can FB pumps handle?

Three fluid fronts are covered by the FB series. FBE: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products. FBCN: raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents. FBOT: thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility guide the sizing of every application.

Are FB pumps energy efficient?

Yes — and the secret lies in correct sizing, the main lever for energy efficiency. Both an oversized and an undersized pump waste energy. That is why FB Bombas engineering determines the optimal operating point from the actual process conditions in Fonte Boa, balancing the flow/pressure/power ratio.

How is pump sizing performed?

Send flow, differential pressure, working temperature and fluid viscosity: with these four data points FB engineering calculates the right model, also validating available NPSH, operating regime and material compatibility. The service is free of charge for customers in Fonte Boa.

Are FB pumps delivered to Fonte Boa with a traceable Data Book?

Yes. A complete technical Data Book accompanies each FB Bombas pump that reaches Fonte Boa: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates (stainless steel, duplex and ductile cast iron per spec), ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve measured on the test bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual and as-built drawings. The unit serial number traces all this documentation.

What is the warranty on FB pumps?

Every FB pump leaves the factory with a warranty against manufacturing defects, under the terms detailed in the commercial proposal. The condition is that installation, operation and maintenance respect the manual's parameters and the sizing defined by engineering. For details on your project in Fonte Boa, talk to our technical team.

Does FB Bombas have a representative in Fonte Boa?

In Fonte Boa, service comes directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP, through the FB Bombas team. The customer speaks with application engineering for sizing, receives the complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and buys original parts at factory pricing. When project criticality warrants it, on-site technical visits to Fonte Boa are scheduled.

Does FB Bombas serve cities neighboring Fonte Boa?

Yes. The entire metropolitan region and the microregions around Fonte Boa receive from FB Bombas the same technical support and logistics structure. With this regional reach, industrial plants spread across several cities are served in a coordinated manner.

Up to what temperature can FB Bombas pumps operate?

Maximum temperature depends on the series: FBE and FBEI operate up to 350°C with heating jacket and special sealing; FBOT operates up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN operates up to 260°C with proper materials and sealing. Correct sizing of sealing and materials is essential for safe operation.

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

They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Fonte Boa eligible for the BNDES Finame lines — Industrial Working Capital, Modernization and Capital Goods —, which offer preferential conditions for national industry. The product's FINAME code is provided by the commercial team on the technical proposal, ready to compose the customer's financial plan.
