Technical summary
In Aratuba, Ceará, FBCN covers agronegócio with ASME B73.1 normalized hydraulics — direct dimensional interchangeability with market references. Cabreúva-SP (2273 km), 96h to 7 days lead time.


Cabreúva-SP → Aratuba (2273 km via BR-116 (via BA/PI)): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book. For Aratuba, where agronegócio is the dominant calling, FB Bombas recommends the FBCN series: FBCN centrifugal pumps for irrigation, water transfer and utility systems in agribusiness. Technical window: Robust for field, Low maintenance, High performance. Aratuba, Ceará is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 years of continuous operation. For the agronegócio industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBCN 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. Just 77 km separate Aratuba from the industrial district cluster of Maracanau — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. Typical fluids in Aratuba's industrial operations include defensivos viscosos and água — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series. Road access runs via BR-116 (via BA/PI), with branches through BR-116, BR-222 and BR-020 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. Aratuba has agronegócio as its main industrial front — which directly shapes the pump type (gear, centrifugal, thermal-oil) with technical fit for each plant.

Technical-and-commercial support for Aratuba is covered from Cabreúva-SP, with typical lead time for critical parts of 96h to 7 days via dedicated carrier. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Aratuba, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. The distrito-industrial cluster near Aratuba brings a technical agenda of variable mix: specialty chemicals, hydraulic oils, purified water and thermal oil — a reference FB Bombas uses as a benchmark for initial sizing and series selection. In utilities and continuous process in Aratuba, 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.
Aratuba shows a medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). distrito-industrial cluster near Aratuba imposes a variable seasonality depending on plant mix — individualized planning pace — syncing equipment purchases, PM contracting and regional technical-team mobilization. Agriculture leads value added in Aratuba (35.1%, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 191 million) — and agribusiness is pump territory: processing, washing, effluents and vegetable oils cross the FBCN and FBE series. Aratuba has agronegócio as its main industrial-pump application front — from primary transfer to internal circulation in process equipment. Aratuba: defensivos viscosos and água. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. diverse applications — specialty chemicals, hydraulic oils, purified water and thermal oils: this is the typical application set around the distrito-industrial cluster in which Aratuba sits.
The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Aratuba is BR-116 (via BA/PI), totaling 2273 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Typical transit time to Aratuba: 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. Technical-service coverage for Aratuba involves technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Aratuba — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
In Aratuba, 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 Aratuba are scheduled.
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, we do. Supply for Aratuba ships directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP and includes engineering support, spare parts for all four series and free sizing — critical projects may receive an on-site technical visit.
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.
They do. The FBCN series dimensionally meets ASME B73.1, the North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps. In practice, a Aratuba plant running a normalized pump of the same designation achieves retrofit on the already-installed baseplate: since shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the same standard, the FBCN pump takes the place of the previous one — piping and baseplate stay intact. Hydraulic equivalence (Q×H and NPSH) is checked separately, on the data sheet.
Yes — with a structural advantage: since the FBE, FBEI, FBCN and FBOT series are manufactured entirely in Brazil, parts ship from the factory itself in Cabreúva/SP, with short lead times for planned shutdowns and priority handling for emergencies. The direct effect is a lower total cost of ownership.

They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Aratuba 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.
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 Aratuba and the rest of Brazil.
ISO 21940 G2.5 is the grade applied to the rotating set of FB Bombas pumps — direct equivalence with what API 610 asks for heavy-duty service. Critical projects in Aratuba depend on this standard: continuous-regime operation, online vibration monitoring at the plant or high cost tied to unplanned downtime. When rotation exceeds 3,600 RPM or rotating mass goes over 50 kg, two-plane balancing is executed using a piezoelectric sensor.
