Gear pumps for projects in Monte Santo, Bahia

When the Data Book is part of the purchase scope. State which drawings, manuals, certificates and test reports are required for Monte Santo; the proposal confirms the documents applicable to the supplied series and configuration. The same Data Book is not assumed for every pump.

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.

The review for Monte Santo considers the fluid, flow, required pressure or head, temperature, viscosity and installation conditions. Provide what you already know and identify any equipment in use. The team checks the necessary data before confirming series, model, drive and materials.

It depends on the series. The FBE can have packing, a mechanical seal, a lip seal or a magnetic coupling; the standard seal is type 21, in ceramic, graphite and Viton, with an AISI 304 stainless-steel spring. The FBCN uses packing or a mechanical seal, the FBOT combines graphite packing as the first sealing stage with a mechanical seal immersed in the bearing-housing oil, and the FBEI accepts packing or a single, double or cartridge mechanical seal. State the fluid, concentration, temperature and pressure of the process in Monte Santo to define the arrangement.

It depends on the series. The published limits are up to 260 °C for the FBCN, 350 °C for the FBOT, 340 °C for the FBEI and 140 °C for the FBME. For the FBE, the 2026 catalogue gives a range of 10 °C to 500 °C; the limit of each configuration depends on materials and sealing. These are series limits: they do not automatically apply to every model, nor do they necessarily occur together with the other maximums. State the start-up, operating and cleaning temperatures of the process in Monte Santo.

Use the website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 or comercial@fbbombas.com.br. Describe the project in Monte Santo, fluid and technical data you already have. The team reviews the application, clarifies missing information and confirms the configuration and proposal conditions.

Send the series and model of the pump installed in Monte Santo, 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.

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 Monte Santo, compare the absorbed power at the process flow, head and fluid, also considering drive, control and operating duty.

Warranty conditions are defined in the proposal and contract and vary with the series, operating conditions and agreement. The manuals state what can void it. Under the FBEI manual (MAN001-10), operating with a different fluid or outside the pump’s data sheets and certified documents without FB’s written authorization voids the warranty. Under the FBME service manual (MSERV-08/01), after parts are replaced, the operating and performance warranty applies only with original parts and FB’s consent. For the project in Monte Santo, confirm the conditions in the quotation.
