Technical summary
The FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Sapeaçu, Bahia for local industry — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (1446 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 1446 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), FB Bombas reaches Sapeaçu with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects. For Sapeaçu, FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing baseplates — the FBCN centrifugal follows ASME B73.1, whose dimension designation is common to the entire installed normalized fleet, whoever the original manufacturer was. Through 56-km proximity to the refining cluster of Sao Francisco Do Conde, Sapeaçu inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in BA qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Sapeaçu in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE (API 676) and FBCN (ASME B73.1) series and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. Sapeaçu is served by the BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) axis and also by highways BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. Sapeaçu, 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. Sapeaçu requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.

Sapeaçu requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.
The pump-and-motor set shipped to Sapeaçu undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Sapeaçu, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. In Sapeaçu, transferência geral and utilidades are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. Gear pump selection for Sapeaçu 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.
Fluid-roster complexity in Sapeaçu is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. The demand profile in Sapeaçu reflects low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume. A GDP of R$ 344 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (33.7% of value added in 2021) places Sapeaçu's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. In Sapeaçu, óleos industriais and água industrial form the typical fluid set — guiding both series selection (gear, centrifugal, thermal oil) and constructive detail (closed/open/semi-open impeller). In Sapeaçu, near a refino cluster, applications such as crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. Sapeaçu shows cases like series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a package FB Bombas addresses with real-curve sizing, material recommendation and dimensioned seal configuration.
Sapeaçu receives equipment within 48-72h, with possible technical stop counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory. Cabreúva-SP to Sapeaçu: 1446 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), a consolidated corridor with carriers qualified by FB Bombas for heavy-equipment cargo. Before shipment to Sapeaçu, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Sapeaçu — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Existing installations can undergo retrofit with FB Bombas — the scope covers seal upgrades, swapping worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance gains. A technical report on the current installation serves as the basis for the assessment.
Yes. Operations and maintenance teams in Sapeaçu 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.
It is compatible when the dimension designation is the same. ASME B73.1 (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps), adopted in the FBCN series, defines an envelope common to the whole normalized fleet operating in Sapeaçu plants, whoever manufactured the installed unit. In a typical retrofit, baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations are preserved, and FB Bombas supplies the complete new pump — not loose parts for third-party equipment. The dimensional and hydraulic gap analysis is executed by application engineering before supplying.
Shorter delivery times (no import dependency), direct technical support from FB engineering, replacement parts with in-house manufacturing, prices in local currency (no exchange rate exposure) and on-site service for projects in Sapeaçu and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.

Yes. On pumps installed in Sapeaçu, 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.
Send the application data through the website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 or email comercial@fbbombas.com.br: fluid (name and viscosity at operating temperature), target flow in m³/h, discharge head in m, available NPSH, operating temperature and regime — continuous or intermittent. After reviewing the briefing, application engineering returns a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time for your project in Sapeaçu.
Shipment is by road via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), with industrial packaging suited to the journey and tracking until delivery. Sizing, proposal and technical support run in parallel through remote channels — distance does not change the engineering scope, only the logistics planning, reflected in the proposal schedule.
