Technical summary
In Serra Preta, Bahia, FBCN covers local industry with ASME B73.1 normalized hydraulics — direct dimensional interchangeability with market references. Cabreúva-SP (1489 km), 72-96h lead time.


Serra Preta requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. Just 87 km separate Serra Preta from the refining cluster of Sao Francisco Do Conde — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, FB Bombas supplies Serra Preta, Bahia with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT, FBEI series and FBFS fire-fighting systems — designed and produced in Cabreúva-SP with API 676 compliance, ASME B73.1 normalization (interchangeable with global manufacturers), API 610 engineered-to-order projects and a traceable Data Book on every unit shipped. 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. The IBGE classification places Serra Preta in the Centro Norte Baiano mesoregion — an area whose industrial profile directly influences demand for rotating equipment. FB Bombas application engineering owns technical specification in Serra Preta — from customer data sheet to the final Data Book delivered with the pump, through application review, FAT on the hydraulic bench and on-site SAT support. Based in Cabreúva-SP at 1489 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), FB Bombas delivers to Serra Preta industrial pumps manufactured in-house since 1944 plus continuous technical support.

Technical-and-commercial support for Serra Preta is covered from Cabreúva-SP, with typical lead time for critical parts of 72-96h via dedicated carrier. In Serra Preta, 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. Typical applications mapped for Serra Preta include transferência geral and utilidades — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. In utilities and continuous process in Serra Preta, 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.
Serra Preta: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. At state scale, Serra Preta has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale. A GDP of R$ 175 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (32.1% of value added in 2021) places Serra Preta's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. Due to proximity to the refino cluster, Serra Preta 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. In Serra Preta, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a combination that covers the typical local industrial demand. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Serra Preta demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project.
The BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) corridor (1489 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Serra Preta — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 broaden FB's transport flexibility to Serra Preta — useful in tight-window PM campaigns or for cargo whose gauge requires routes with specific bridges/curves. The service structure for Serra Preta is sized as technical visits scheduled in advance, optimizing the specialized team's travel, with escalation to additional visits in cases of commissioning, troubleshooting or complex retrofit.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Serra Preta — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
It depends on the service: fluid, temperature and operating pressure determine the configuration, which engineering defines. Available options are single seal, double seal (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge version and, in specific applications, packing glands. Hazardous fluids call for a double seal with barrier — that is the recommended option.
FB Bombas manufactures four major lines: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for lubricating fluids, FBCN (normalized centrifugal) for water and low-viscosity fluids, and FBOT (specific centrifugal) for thermal oil circuits. We also serve fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA and NBR 16704.
Yes. Every FB Bombas pump delivered to Serra Preta comes with a complete technical Data Book: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates (stainless, duplex, ductile cast iron per spec), ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve measured on the bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual, and as-built drawings. All documentation is traceable by the unit serial number.
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 Serra Preta, talk to our technical team.
Yes — the standard catalog is only the starting point. For special applications, FB Bombas engineers custom solutions: changes in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Before manufacturing, every special project is validated by engineering.
Three paths lead to a quote: the website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 and the email comercial@fbbombas.com.br. With the application data in hand (fluid, flow, pressure, temperature), the technical team returns a proposal already sized for your scenario in Serra Preta.
The FB Bombas rotating set is balanced per ISO 21940 G2.5 (a balancing grade equivalent to API 610 requirements for heavy-duty service) — required for critical projects in Serra Preta with continuous regime, plants with online vibration monitoring or applications with high cost of unplanned downtime. For machines running above 3,600 RPM or with rotating mass over 50 kg, balancing is performed on two planes with a piezoelectric sensor.
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.
They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Serra Preta eligible for the BNDES Finame lines — Industrial Working Capital, Modernization and Capital Goods —, which offer preferential conditions for national industry. The product's FINAME code is provided by the commercial team on the technical proposal, ready to compose the customer's financial plan.
Application engineering starts from four variables — flow, differential pressure, temperature and viscosity — and refines with available NPSH, duty cycle and chemical compatibility. The study is free for customers in Serra Preta and results in the exact model recommendation, not a generic family.
