Technical summary
The FBCN (normalized centrifugal) line is specified in Alterosa, Minas Gerais for local industry — head up to 138 m, temperature up to 260°C. API 610, in-house manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP (251 km).


FB Bombas is the national industrial-pump manufacturer serving Alterosa (MG) with direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP. For local industry — the dominant industrial calling of Alterosa — we recommend the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series, with field-validated materials, cartridge mechanical seal and characteristic curve certified on an hydraulic bench. Through 173-km proximity to the sugar-and-ethanol cluster of Ribeirao Preto, Alterosa inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. FB Bombas application engineering serves Alterosa with custom technical sizing: system characteristic curve, available NPSH, in-service viscosity and mechanical-seal strategy (API Plan 11, 13, 52 or 53 by criticality). FB Bombas maintains in Alterosa the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 610 + API 676 + ASME B73.1 — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, food, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. Within IBGE mesoregion Sul/Sudoeste de Minas, Alterosa shares economic context with adjacent municipalities, shaping typical pump specifications and the frequency of synchronized maintenance campaigns. Alterosa requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. Service to Alterosa is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias (251 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.

The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Alterosa; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. The technical profile of the sucroalcooleiro cluster near Alterosa involves sugarcane juice, vinasse, molasses and thermal oil for evaporators — 24/7 operation during harvest — information that guides preliminary sizing of FB series. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Alterosa, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. Lead time for critical parts to Alterosa is typically 24-48h — a function of distance (251 km) and the available road modal.
The demand profile in Alterosa reflects medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline. Alterosa has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale — a feature that enters the sizing of the service strategy. Typical seasonality of the sucroalcooleiro cluster (concentrated harvest season (Apr-Nov) creates short maintenance windows and intense parts demand during milling) directly impacts supply scheduling and PMs in Alterosa. In Alterosa, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a combination that covers the typical local industrial demand. Due to proximity to the sucroalcooleiro cluster, Alterosa shares a technical agenda with juice circulation, molasses transfer, vinasse boost and thermal oil for evaporators — a direct path to series and materials selection. Working with óleos industriais and água industrial in Alterosa demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project.
The BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias corridor (251 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Alterosa — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116 broaden FB's transport flexibility to Alterosa — useful in tight-window PM campaigns or for cargo whose gauge requires routes with specific bridges/curves. The service structure for Alterosa is sized as in-person technical visits with rapid mobilization — Cabreúva → customer route in a few hours, with escalation to additional visits in cases of commissioning, troubleshooting or complex retrofit.

Yes. FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing installations, including seal upgrades, replacement of worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance improvement. The assessment is based on a technical report of the current installation.
Yes. In addition to the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops custom solutions for special applications, including modifications in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Special projects go through engineering before manufacturing.
Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — a feature that enables dimensional retrofit on existing baseplates in Alterosa plants originally equipped with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds or Flowserve. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard; the rotating set is swapped without changing piping or baseplate.
Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Alterosa for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods) with preferential conditions for national industry. The commercial team provides the product FINAME code on the technical proposal for inclusion in the customer financial plan.

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Alterosa. The FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series cover applications typically served by global manufacturers such as KSB, Sulzer, Imbil and Grundfos — with advantages in lead time (no import), direct support without intermediaries, fast spare-parts availability and Portuguese-speaking application engineering. For retrofits, ASME B73.1 normalization ensures dimensional interchangeability with existing baseplates.
Yes. Correct sizing is the main lever for energy efficiency — an oversized or undersized pump wastes energy. FB Bombas engineering calculates the optimal operating point considering the actual process conditions in Alterosa, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Alterosa with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
