FBE Gear Pumps

FBE Gear Pumps in Terra Nova

The fluid roster in Terra Nova (óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial) demands attention to viscosity, operating temperature and chemical compatibility — variables that FB application engineering uses to recommend the proper series. FB Bombas maintains in Terra Nova the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 610 + API 676 + ASME B73.1 — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, food, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. In Terra Nova, Bahia, FB Bombas serves indústria de transformação projects with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series — dedicated application engineering for sizing against the actual system curve, CRCC Petrobras certification and technical compliance with API 610 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting). Operations in indústria de transformação dominate the local production profile, defining the typical fluid catalogue and the FB series recommended for each application. 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. Terra Nova sits 26 km from the refining cluster centered in Sao Francisco Do Conde, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. Based in Cabreúva-SP at 1511 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), FB Bombas delivers to Terra Nova industrial pumps manufactured in-house since 1944 plus continuous technical support.

Technical solutions

In viscous fluid services in Terra Nova, the FBE works where centrifugals lose efficiency: gear volumetric efficiency improves with viscosity, covering up to 100,000 SSU and 350 °C with a heating jacket — the typical case of óleos industriais e fluidos de processo. The design counterpart is mandatory — a discharge line protected by a relief valve, because positive displacement does not tolerate blockage. Typical applications mapped for Terra Nova include transferência em linhas de produção and utilidades de planta — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. Technical fit in Terra Nova points to FBEI and FBCN as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. For Terra Nova, the FB protocol includes hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — all documented in the Data Book.

Why FB Bombas

In Terra Nova, 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. In Terra Nova, low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume — a characteristic that sizes FB's commercial strategy: application-engineering coverage, visit cadence and depth of consignment stock. Terra Nova has a factory-floor economy: 30.2% of municipal value added is industrial (IBGE, 2021), over a 2023 GDP of R$ 165 million. This profile concentrates demand on process pumps and maintenance contracts with fast parts replacement. Terra Nova: óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. For Terra Nova, series FBEI for transferência em linhas de produção and series FBCN for utilidades de planta — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering. Terra Nova has indústria de transformação as its main industrial-pump application front — from primary transfer to internal circulation in process equipment.

Logistics & support

Terra Nova receives equipment within 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory. Cabreúva-SP to Terra Nova: 1511 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 Terra Nova, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.

Frequently Asked Questions about Terra Nova

How does pump delivery work for Terra Nova, 1511 km from the factory?

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.

Can FB Bombas pumps be financed via BNDES / FINAME in Terra Nova?

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Terra Nova 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.

Do FBCN pumps follow ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance?

Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — a feature that enables dimensional retrofit on existing baseplates in Terra Nova plants originally equipped with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds or Flowserve. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard; the rotating set is swapped without changing piping or baseplate.

Are replacement parts available for customers in Terra Nova?

There is. Full production in Cabreúva/SP guarantees factory replacement parts for all four series — planned shutdowns get short lead times and emergencies receive priority handling, which protects the total cost of ownership of the equipment installed in Terra Nova.

How long has FB Bombas been in the market?

FB Bombas' trajectory as an industrial pump manufacturer began in 1944 and adds up to over 82 years of continuous experience. Engineering, manufacturing and testing operate under one roof at the Cabreúva/SP factory — a guarantee of total quality control on every unit that reaches Terra Nova and the rest of Brazil.

What certifications does FB Bombas hold?

FB Bombas holds: active CRCC at Petrobras (supplier registry for Oil & Gas); compliance with API 676 (international standard for positive displacement pumps — FBE series); compliance with API 610 (standard for centrifugal pumps in refineries — FBCN series); compliance with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards and ABNT NBR 16704 for stationary fire protection pump systems.

Does FB Bombas support ISO 10816 vibration analysis for predictive maintenance in Terra Nova?

Yes. FB Bombas application engineering supports ISO 10816 vibration analysis (velocity RMS in mm/s) for diagnosing misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation on pumps installed in Terra Nova. The service includes baseline capture at startup, spectral comparison during PM campaigns, and intervention recommendations (re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment) before vibration exceeds the standard’s zone D.

Does FB Bombas have a representative in Terra Nova?

Who serves Terra Nova is the FB Bombas factory team itself in Cabreúva/SP. In practice: direct access to application engineering for sizing, technical quotes returned within 24h and original parts supplied at factory pricing. Depending on project criticality, on-site technical visits to Terra Nova are added to the plan.

What type of mechanical seal do FB pumps use?

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.

What types of pumps does FB Bombas manufacture?

The portfolio covers four in-house series: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for low-pulsation services, FBCN (standardized centrifugal) for water and light fluids and FBOT (dedicated centrifugal) for thermal oil — plus complete fire-fighting systems per NFPA 20 and NBR 16704.
