Why FB Bombas for LATAM

Direct export to Latin America for decades

For over 82 years we have manufactured industrial pumps in Brazil — and for decades we have been bringing that engineering to Latin America. We serve 10 LATAM countries (Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia) with gear (FBE/FBEI) and centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT) pumps engineered for the most critical fluids.

Our team is fluent in Portuguese, English and Spanish, knows the foreign trade requirements of each country, and offers engineering adapted to each market. This is why mining, sugar-ethanol, chemical and petrochemical industries in LATAM choose FB Bombas as a long-term partner.

Industrial pumps for Pereira: the technical context

Local profile, grid frequency, recommended series and export logistics — the four factors that define the right specification.

Industrial profile of Pereira

Pereira is an industrial market in Colombia, with activity concentrated in coffee, apparel and commerce. For this profile, pumping demand splits between process fluids and utilities — precisely the boundary between the gear and centrifugal series FB Bombas has manufactured since 1944 in Cabreúva, São Paulo.

Colombia's grid: 60 Hz

Projects in Pereira must account for Colombia's grid frequency: 60 Hz. In practice, 2-pole motors run at ~3,500 rpm and 4-pole at ~1,750 rpm — and flow and head vary with speed per the affinity laws. FB adjusts impeller and motor selection to the real duty point at the local frequency.

FB series for the local profile

Given the coffee, apparel and commerce profile, the technical starting point in Pereira is FBCN, FBE and FBOT. The FBE (external gear, API 676 compliance) covers viscous process fluids — oils, resins, derivatives — with stable flow and operation up to 350 °C; the FBCN (standardized centrifugal, ASME B73.1 compliance) handles water, utilities and light fluids. For thermal oil circuits — common in textile, timber and chemical sectors — the dedicated FBOT series operates up to 350 °C.

Export and logistics

The export proposal for Pereira settles the three logistics variables at once — Incoterm, modal and schedule — over the reference distance of ~4,402 km in a straight line from Cabreúva-SP. Worth noting: Colombia is a Mercosur associate state, with economic complementation agreements supporting trade with Brazil.

Frequently asked questions — Pereira

Does FB Bombas export to Pereira?

Yes. FB Bombas exports directly from the factory in Cabreúva-SP (Brazil) to Pereira and other cities in Colombia — Colombia is a Mercosur associate state, with economic complementation agreements supporting trade with Brazil. The technical proposal includes Incoterm, packaging and export documentation.

Do the pumps work on Colombia's 60 Hz grid?

Yes — the set is specified for the local frequency. At 60 Hz, 2/4-pole motors run at ~3,500/1,750 rpm, and engineering corrects the pump curve through the affinity laws to guarantee the duty point at the real speed.

Is technical documentation available in Spanish?

Yes — Spanish and Portuguese are the working languages of FB technical material: catalogs, series specifications and the website. For export, the proposal documentation follows the language defined by the customer.

How does parts replacement work in Colombia?

Whoever builds the pump builds the part: seals, impellers, shafts and wear kits come from the same Cabreúva-SP plant and ship to Colombia through the agreed export flow — traceability of the critical item stays with a single responsible party.

Which series does FB recommend for coffee in Pereira?

FBCN, FBE and FBOT — that is the initial recommendation for coffee in Pereira. The exact model, materials and sealing come from the free sizing study FB engineering runs on the circuit's real duty point.
