Technical solutions

For the industrial park of Riachão do Jacuípe, the FBE series answers the services kinetic hydraulics cannot cover: transfer with stable flow under fluctuating pressure, dosing proportional to speed and high-viscosity fluids — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. Sizing validates starting torque at the coldest condition of the year — the classic mistake that shears keys in undersized pumps. In Riachão do Jacuípe, transferência geral and utilidades are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Riachão do Jacuípe, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. Before shipment to Riachão do Jacuípe, each pump is tested on a hydraulic bench with ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — FB Bombas standard protocol.

Why FB Bombas

In Riachão do Jacuípe, the low complexity index in the fluid mix sets lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors — a factor adjusting both technical-spec depth and materials-catalogue scope. Riachão do Jacuípe has a services-oriented economy (46.7% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 566 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. In Riachão do Jacuípe, high industrial density — multiple plants in a small radius, meaningful cumulative demand — a characteristic that sizes FB's commercial strategy: application-engineering coverage, visit cadence and depth of consignment stock. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Riachão do Jacuípe demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project. In Riachão do Jacuípe, 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, Riachão do Jacuípe 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 & support

Frequently Asked Questions about Riachão do Jacuípe

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 Riachão do Jacuípe, talk to our technical team.

Is FB Bombas a national alternative to imported manufacturers in Riachão do Jacuípe?

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Riachão do Jacuípe. 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.

Are FB pumps easy to maintain?

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.

Is the FBCN dimensionally compatible with normalized pumps already installed in Riachão do Jacuípe?

Yes, provided the dimension designation coincides. By following ASME B73.1 — the North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps — the FBCN occupies the standardised installation envelope defined by the norm, which does not depend on who built the pump running in Riachão do Jacuípe plants. What is supplied is the complete pump: baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations usually remain. FB application engineering runs the dimensional gap analysis before supply, covering flow, head and required NPSH as well.

Does FB Bombas retrofit older pumps?

It does. FB Bombas' retrofit service for existing installations encompasses updated seals, replaced worn components, adjustment to new fluids and improved hydraulic performance. To evaluate each case, the reference is the technical report on the current installation.

Does FB Bombas offer technical training for operators in Riachão do Jacuípe?

Yes. FB Bombas offers technical training for operations and maintenance teams in Riachão do Jacuípe, with modules on: sizing and reading the characteristic curve, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Training can be delivered at the customer plant or at the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.

What is the delivery lead time for pumps to Riachão do Jacuípe?

It depends on the configuration: standard-arrangement pumps have shorter lead times, while special constructions follow the schedule stated in the technical proposal. The deciding factor is the combination of series, materials and stock availability — and transport to Riachão do Jacuípe goes through our regular road operator.

Do FBCN pumps follow ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance?

Yes. ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance — the North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps — is a feature of the FBCN series and enables retrofit on existing baseplates in Riachão do Jacuípe plants, regardless of which brand occupied the base, provided the designation coincides. Shaft, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline obey the standard, so the new pump takes the position without touching piping or baseplate.

How do I contact FB Bombas’ technical team?

You can reach us on WhatsApp at +55 11 97287-4837, write to comercial@fbbombas.com.br or fill in the website form. Technical requests receive prioritized feedback within the same business day, coming straight from application engineering.

What is the emergency spare-parts lead time to Riachão do Jacuípe?

When there is a plant shutdown in Riachão do Jacuípe, FB Bombas triggers an emergency flow dedicated to critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings): the order gets pre-invoicing, dispatch is prioritized and the modal can change — express road or air, decided by distance and criticality. The region defines the typical lead time, with a window negotiable for each case. For those with an installed base and scheduled PM, there is the option of consigning part of the stock at the plant.
