Technical summary
For viscous fluids in local industry (Tanque Novo, Bahia), FB application engineering recommends FBEI as a starting point. API 676 compliance, vertically integrated manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP, 72-96h lead time.


Typical fluids in Tanque Novo's industrial operations include óleos industriais and água industrial — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in BA qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Tanque Novo 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. Road access runs via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), with branches through BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Tanque Novo, Bahia, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the local industry sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and qualification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification.

Gear pump selection for Tanque Novo 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. The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Tanque Novo; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. For the technical profile observed in Tanque Novo, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBEI and FBCN as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature. Before shipment to Tanque Novo, each pump is tested on a hydraulic bench with ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — FB Bombas standard protocol.
Technically, Tanque Novo shows low complexity in its fluid mix — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Tanque Novo has a services-oriented economy (42.1% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 297 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. Demand in Tanque Novo is characterized by medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. The fluid catalogue in Tanque Novo (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Typical use cases identified for Tanque Novo: series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades. The refino cluster around Tanque Novo 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.
Typical transit time to Tanque Novo: 48-72h, with possible technical stop — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Tanque Novo is BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), totaling 1190 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Before shipment to Tanque Novo, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Tanque Novo for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods) with preferential conditions for national industry. The commercial team provides the product FINAME code on the technical proposal for inclusion in the customer financial plan.
Yes. The FBE and FBCN lines were designed with easy access to wear-prone components, allowing disassembly and inspection with conventional tools. Detailed technical manuals and direct factory replacement parts availability simplify maintenance routines.
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 Tanque Novo 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.
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.
The FB portfolio handles an extensive spectrum of fluids. The FBE series takes mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins plus viscous chemical and hydraulic products; the FBCN series works with raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents; the FBOT series is dedicated to thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Each case is sized considering viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
It offers both. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) takes place on the Cabreúva/SP bench and covers hydraulic testing, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration; when the customer specifies, inspection witnesses the tests. In the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) of Tanque Novo projects, application engineering supports commissioning with startup checklist, laser alignment and capture of the baseline vibration signature.
In Tanque Novo, service comes directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP, through the FB Bombas team. The customer speaks with application engineering for sizing, receives the complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and buys original parts at factory pricing. When project criticality warrants it, on-site technical visits to Tanque Novo are scheduled.
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.
