FBE Gear Pumps Industrial in Una

Local context

Based in Cabreúva-SP at 1229 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), FB Bombas delivers to Una industrial pumps manufactured in-house since 1944 plus continuous technical support. In Una, Bahia, FB Bombas serves local industry 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 ASME B73.1 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting).

Una requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.

Technical solutions

100% of pumps bound for Una pass through the Cabreúva-SP hydraulic bench — acceptance testing with multi-point curve readings and G2.5 dynamic balancing. Una typically calls for FBEI and FBCN — an initial recommendation based on local productFit, dominant industrial cluster and identified fluid profile; final technical approval is refined by application engineering. In Una, materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion answer the requirements of óleos industriais and água industrial — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). In viscous fluid services in Una, 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 e água industrial. The design counterpart is mandatory — a discharge line protected by a relief valve, because positive displacement does not tolerate blockage.

Why FB Bombas

Technically, Una shows low complexity in its fluid mix — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. A GDP of R$ 454 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (33.5% of value added in 2021) places Una's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. Demand in Una is characterized by medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Una demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project. Due to proximity to the papel-celulose cluster, Una shares a technical agenda with white/black liquor circulation, recovery-boiler feed and low-to-medium consistency stock pumping — a direct path to series and materials selection. In Una, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a combination that covers the typical local industrial demand.

Logistics & support

Logistics lead time to Una is 48-72h, with possible technical stop — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 1229 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Una via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. The factory-to-Una logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Frequently Asked Questions about Una

Are FB pumps easy to maintain?

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.

Does FB Bombas manufacture custom pumps?

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.

What types of fluids can FB pumps handle?

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.

Up to what temperature can FB Bombas pumps operate?

Limits vary by series. FBE and FBEI: up to 350°C, provided a heating jacket and special sealing are used. FBOT: up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits. FBCN: up to 260°C, with materials and sealing suited to the service. Well-sized sealing and materials are a condition for safe operation in these ranges.

What is the balancing grade of FB pumps for critical projects in Una?

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 Una 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.

Does FB Bombas offer technical training for operators in Una?

It does. FB Bombas' technical training program for operators and maintainers in Una covers: characteristic-curve reading and sizing, cavitation identified via NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, vibration analyzed per ISO 10816 and preventive maintenance (PM) practice, including bearing and wear-ring replacement. Location and format are flexible — customer plant or the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.

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 Una, talk to our technical team.

Does FB Bombas serve Una?

Yes. FB Bombas serves Una and the entire surrounding region with supply, technical support and replacement parts directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP. Support includes sizing at no cost and, for critical projects, on-site technical visits.

Does FB Bombas offer FAT and SAT support for projects in Una?

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 Una projects, application engineering supports commissioning with startup checklist, laser alignment and capture of the baseline vibration signature.

What is the emergency spare-parts lead time to Una?

During a plant shutdown in Una, critical parts — mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings — enter FB Bombas' emergency flow: pre-invoicing, priority dispatch and choice of alternative modal (express road or air, depending on distance and criticality). Typical lead time depends on the region and the window is negotiated case by case. Customers with an installed base and scheduled PM can keep part of the stock on consignment at the plant.
