Technical summary
The FBCN (normalized centrifugal) line is specified in Alterosa, Minas Gerais for local industry — head up to 135 m, temperature up to 260°C. ASME B73.1, 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 676 + ASME B73.1 (API 610 on engineered-to-order projects) — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, 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.

In utilities and continuous process in Alterosa, 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. 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. 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 services-oriented economy (37.2% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 332 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. Fluid-roster complexity in Alterosa is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. 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.

Regional service from Alterosa — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
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 Alterosa and the rest of Brazil.
Yes — Alterosa is part of FB Bombas’ direct service area. Supply, engineering support and spare parts ship from the factory in Cabreúva/SP; sizing is done at no cost and, when the project is critical, the team evaluates an on-site technical visit.
Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Alterosa, FB Bombas has manufactured industrial pumps in Brazil since 1944. Applications currently running on imported equipment are covered by the FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series — adding advantages in lead time (no import), factory-direct technical support, spare parts for FB pumps and application engineering that works in Portuguese. In a normalized-line retrofit, the interchangeability set out in ASME B73.1 holds between units of the same standard dimension designation, whatever the original supplier.
Service to Alterosa is handled directly by the FB Bombas team at the Cabreúva/SP factory. That means direct contact with application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and original spare parts supplied at factory-direct pricing. On-site technical visits to Alterosa are planned based on project criticality.
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. A complete technical Data Book accompanies each FB Bombas pump that reaches Alterosa: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates (stainless steel, duplex and ductile cast iron per spec), ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve measured on the test bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual and as-built drawings. The unit serial number traces all this documentation.
Yes. The process starts with FB Bombas' application engineering, which studies the installed pump's specifications — flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature — and indicates the dimensional or functional technical equivalence within our series. In Alterosa, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.
It does. When a special application demands something beyond the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops the solution: modified construction materials, specific sealing arrangements, system-integrated heating, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Engineering reviews each special project as a step prior to manufacturing.
The schedule is set by three factors: chosen series, construction materials and stock at order time. Standard configurations ship faster; custom ones receive a firm date in the technical proposal. Delivery to Alterosa is by road, shipping directly from the factory.
