Technical summary
The FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Irará, Bahia for local industry — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (1533 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


Irará requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. Only 64 km from the refining cluster of Sao Francisco Do Conde, Irará benefits from logistics spillover and movement of technical professionals — FB Bombas has a service track record in the region. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Irará, Bahia, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the local industry sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and qualification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification. Road access runs via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), with branches through BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. Industrial plants in Irará rely on FB Bombas spares held in scheduled stock: semi-open and open impellers, wear rings in various materials, dual cartridge seals API 682 Plan 53 and SKF/FAG bearings per the original spec. Within IBGE mesoregion Centro Norte Baiano, Irará shares economic context with adjacent municipalities, shaping typical pump specifications and the frequency of synchronized maintenance campaigns. From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 1533 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), FB Bombas reaches Irará with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects.

Gear pump selection for Irará starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. With that data, engineering defines speed (flow is proportional), bushing materials and the thermal arrangement: jacketed body for cold starts and a seal compatible with the hot fluid. The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Irará; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. In Irará, FBEI and FBCN cover the technical range observed in the field — from primary transfer and circulation to replacing an installed pump carrying the same ASME B73.1 dimensional designation. The pump-and-motor set shipped to Irará undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
The low fluid-complexity profile in Irará (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. Irará shows a medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). Irará has a services-oriented economy (38.9% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 386 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Irará demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project. In Irará, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a combination that covers the typical local industrial demand. Due to proximity to the refino cluster, Irará shares a technical agenda with crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives — a direct path to series and materials selection.
Logistics lead time to Irará is 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 1533 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Irará via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. The factory-to-Irará logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Irará — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Operations and maintenance teams in Irará count on FB Bombas technical training, structured in modules: sizing and characteristic-curve reading, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Classes can happen at the customer plant or at the factory in Cabreúva/SP, in-person or hybrid format.
Contact can be made via WhatsApp at +55 11 97287-4837, email comercial@fbbombas.com.br or through the form on our website. Technical response is prioritized on the same business day, with direct reply from the application engineering team.
Yes. FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing installations, including seal upgrades, replacement of worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance improvement. The assessment is based on a technical report of the current installation.
Credentials include an active Petrobras CRCC, API 676 compliance on the FBE gear line, ASME B73.1 compliance on the FBCN centrifugal and adherence to NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 on fire-fighting systems. Technical documentation and data book accompany supplies upon requirement.
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.
They do. In the FBE and FBCN lines, wear-affected components sit in easily accessible positions, so conventional tools suffice for disassembly and inspection. Add detailed technical manuals and factory-direct availability of replacement parts — and maintenance becomes an uncomplicated routine.
Yes. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is executed on the factory bench in Cabreúva/SP, with hydraulic test, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration — witnessed by customer inspection when specified. For projects in Irará, the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) is supported by application engineering during commissioning, with startup checklist, laser alignment and baseline vibration-signature capture.
Coverage against manufacturing defects accompanies the supply of FB pumps — the full terms appear in the commercial proposal. It holds as long as installation, operation and maintenance follow what the manual specifies and the sizing performed by engineering. Our technical team clarifies the specific conditions of your project in Irará.
Yes — with a structural advantage: since the FBE, FBEI, FBCN and FBOT series are manufactured entirely in Brazil, parts ship from the factory itself in Cabreúva/SP, with short lead times for planned shutdowns and priority handling for emergencies. The direct effect is a lower total cost of ownership.
Service to Irará is handled directly by the FB Bombas team at the Cabreúva/SP factory. That means direct contact with application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and original spare parts supplied at factory-direct pricing. On-site technical visits to Irará are planned based on project criticality.
