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.

Local profile, grid frequency, recommended series and export logistics — the four factors that define the right specification.
Industrial profile of Quito
Quito is the capital and one of Ecuador's main industrial hubs, with activity concentrated in textiles, pharmaceuticals and chemicals. 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.
Ecuador's grid: 60 Hz
A technical detail that changes selection in Ecuador: the local grid runs at 60 Hz, which puts 2- and 4-pole induction motors at about 3,500 and 1,750 rpm. Since FB catalog curves are tested at 1,750 rpm (60 Hz), engineering recalculates flow and head through the affinity laws before locking the model — a step that prevents off-duty pumps in export projects.
FB series for the local profile
Crossing Quito's sectors with the FB catalog points to FBCN, FBE and FBOT as reference series. Viscous process fluids go to the FBE external gear pump (up to 100,000 SSU, API 676); utilities and light fluids to the FBCN centrifugal (ASME B73.1). Where thermal oil heating exists, the FBOT — a dedicated centrifugal up to 350 °C — comes in.
Export and logistics
Every supply for Quito ships with industrial export packaging and the destination's documentation package — commercial invoice, packing list and applicable certificates. The modal is defined with the customer (road, sea or air) and Ecuador is a Mercosur associate state, with economic complementation agreements supporting trade with Brazil. The distance reference is ~4,249 km in a straight line from the factory.
Frequently asked questions — Quito
Does FB Bombas export to Quito?
It does — with direct factory supply to Ecuador. For Quito, the proposal defines modal, Incoterm and schedule; Ecuador is a Mercosur associate state, with economic complementation agreements supporting trade with Brazil.
Do the pumps work on Ecuador'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 Ecuador?
Replacement is factory-direct: seals, impellers, shafts and wear kits for all four series are manufactured in Cabreúva-SP and exported to Ecuador per the contract's logistics plan — a direct advantage of buying from the manufacturer.
Which series does FB recommend for textiles in Quito?
FBCN, FBE and FBOT — that is the initial recommendation for textiles in Quito. The exact model, materials and sealing come from the free sizing study FB engineering runs on the circuit's real duty point.
Complete systems ready for any Latin American country
We don't just export pumps. We deliver skids, mobile units and assembled systems with control panel, ready for installation. Every project is sized for the customer's actual application — regardless of destination country.
