Technical summary
The FBCN (normalized centrifugal) line is specified in Pé de Serra, Bahia for local industry — head up to 135 m, temperature up to 260°C. ASME B73.1, in-house manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP (1504 km).


Logistically, the city connects to Cabreúva-SP via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), complemented by alternatives BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 — a network that supports technical service within tight operational windows. Pé de Serra, Bahia is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 years of continuous operation. For the local industry industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series with CRCC Petrobras qualification, API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization (API 610 engineered-to-order projects) — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed. The IBGE classification places Pé de Serra in the Nordeste Baiano mesoregion — an area whose industrial profile directly influences demand for rotating equipment. Pé de Serra requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. In Pé de Serra, FB Bombas serves projects with in-house application engineering: system-curve analysis, NPSH balance (available vs required), series selection (FBE / FBCN / FBOT / FBEI / FBFS) and API 682 sealing plan. The refining cluster of Sao Francisco Do Conde is 134 km from Pé de Serra, generating economic spillover and correlated technical demand — common in pumping projects involving both cities. Cabreúva-SP → Pé de Serra (1504 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG)): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book.

In utilities and continuous process in Pé de Serra, the standardized centrifugal standardizes the fleet: 53 models with bench-tested curves cover the flow × head grid, and the same construction philosophy simplifies spares inventory across sizes — fewer critical items, more availability. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Pé de Serra, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Pé de Serra; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. The FB model for Pé de Serra: 96h to 7 days logistics lead time, with the option to accelerate via air modal or alternative routing in operational emergencies.
Pé de Serra: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Pé de Serra has a services-oriented economy (25.5% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 166 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. Pé de Serra: by affinity to the refino cluster, scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain — a variable that enters commercial planning. The fluid catalogue in Pé de Serra (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Use cases in Pé de Serra (series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region. The refino cluster around Pé de Serra concentrates applications crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history.
The BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) corridor (1504 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Pé de Serra — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 broaden FB's transport flexibility to Pé de Serra — useful in tight-window PM campaigns or for cargo whose gauge requires routes with specific bridges/curves. The service structure for Pé de Serra is sized as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip, with escalation to additional visits in cases of commissioning, troubleshooting or complex retrofit.
FB engineers serve Pé de Serra for the FBCN series with a sized proposal — duty point, fluid, field conditions and supply lead time.

Regional service from Pé de Serra — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Who serves Pé de Serra is the FB Bombas factory team itself in Cabreúva/SP. In practice: direct access to application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation returned within 3-5 business days and original parts supplied at factory pricing. Depending on project criticality, on-site technical visits to Pé de Serra are added to the plan.
Yes. On pumps installed in Pé de Serra, FB Bombas application engineering applies ISO 10816 (velocity RMS in mm/s) to diagnose misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation. The scope covers baseline captured at startup, spectral comparison throughout PM campaigns and recommendation of interventions — re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment — before the machine reaches the standard's zone D.
Yes. The design of the FBE and FBCN lines favors direct access to wear-prone components — disassembly and inspection are done with conventional tools. The routine gets even simpler with detailed technical manuals and replacement parts supplied straight from the factory.
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.
Yes — Pé de Serra is part of FB Bombas’ direct service area. Supply, engineering support and spare parts ship from the factory in Cabreúva/SP; sizing is done at no cost and, when the project is critical, the team evaluates an on-site technical visit.
Yes. In addition to the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops custom solutions for special applications, including modifications in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Special projects go through engineering before manufacturing.
Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Pé de Serra. The FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series cover the same applications served by imported equipment — with advantages in lead time (no import), direct factory technical support, spare parts for FB pumps themselves and Portuguese-speaking application engineering. In a normalized centrifugal retrofit, ASME B73.1 requires that units of the same standard dimension designation, from any source of supply, be interchangeable as to mounting dimensions, suction and discharge nozzles, input shaft and foundation bolt holes.
