Industrial pumps for projects in Alto Parnaíba, Maranhão

Send the application in Alto Parnaíba, fluid, temperature and available flow, pressure or head data. For replacement, add the equipment model, identification and drawing. Also state the destination and purchase documentation requirements. The team confirms any additional data needed and the technical and commercial proposal scope.

It depends on the series, as set out in each manual: 10 kgf/cm² for the FBE (MTEC-01/01, Table 5), 1.5 times the operating pressure for the FBOT (MTEC-16/00), 1.5 times the working pressure for the FBME (MTEC-08/01) and per ANSI B73.1 for the FBCN (MTEC-03/00). The test is performed on the factory bench in Cabreúva, Brazil; certificates, additional tests and customer witnessing are defined in the proposal for supply to Alto Parnaíba.

Yes, for FB product lines. The FBE catalogue lists replacement components such as shafts, gears, bushing sets, covers, mechanical seal, lip seal and relief valve, and the FBEI and FBME manuals include spare-parts lists for two years of operation. For delivery to Alto Parnaíba, state the series, model, manufacturing number and component; compatibility, availability and lead time are confirmed in the quotation. Supply ships from the factory in Cabreúva, Brazil; the city page does not indicate local stock. Use original parts: the FBME service manual makes the operating and performance warranty conditional on original parts and FB’s consent.

Warranty conditions are defined in the proposal and contract and vary with the series, operating conditions and agreement. The manuals state what can void it. Under the FBEI manual (MAN001-10), operating with a different fluid or outside the pump’s data sheets and certified documents without FB’s written authorization voids the warranty. Under the FBME service manual (MSERV-08/01), after parts are replaced, the operating and performance warranty applies only with original parts and FB’s consent. For the project in Alto Parnaíba, confirm the conditions in the quotation.

No: manual MTEC-03/00 states mechanical construction per ASME B73.1, not dimensional compliance with that standard. So, before a replacement in Alto Parnaíba, interchangeability with the existing pump is checked on each model’s drawing, together with the duty point, materials and drive.

It depends on the series. The FBE can have packing, a mechanical seal, a lip seal or a magnetic coupling; the standard seal is type 21, in ceramic, graphite and Viton, with an AISI 304 stainless-steel spring. The FBCN uses packing or a mechanical seal, the FBOT combines graphite packing as the first sealing stage with a mechanical seal immersed in the bearing-housing oil, and the FBEI accepts packing or a single, double or cartridge mechanical seal. State the fluid, concentration, temperature and pressure of the process in Alto Parnaíba to define the arrangement.

Yes, in the five Custom Solutions categories: custom complete motor-pump assembly, mobile industrial kit, industrial pump skid, retrofit with a new FB pump in place of the installed one, and special materials projects. The scope of each project is defined with engineering before manufacture in Cabreúva, Brazil.

It depends on the series. The catalogue for the FBE external gear pump lists oils in general, greases, asphalt, diesel oil, kerosene, paints, varnishes, resins and solvents, as well as lubrication systems and hydraulic equipment. The FBEI internal gear pump is intended for high-viscosity liquids. The FBCN and FBME handle clean or turbid liquids, and the FBOT handles organic thermal oils free of abrasive particles and of substances that chemically attack the pump. For the process in Alto Parnaíba, state the composition, temperature, viscosity and solids content; fluids with suspended solids must be assessed by FB engineering.

The published grade is for the FBME: service manual MSERV-08/01 (item 12.2) specifies static and dynamic impeller balancing to grade G6.3. The manuals of the other series do not publish a grade; for them and for critical projects in Alto Parnaíba, specify the required standard, grade and report in the purchase scope. Impeller balancing alone does not guarantee the vibration level of the installation.

Yes, when they are included in the purchase scope. The published services include bench performance testing with a scope defined for the project, and on-site start-up and commissioning based on the manual and site conditions. Procedure, test points, acceptance criteria, customer witnessing and reports are defined in the proposal before the supply for Alto Parnaíba is contracted.
