FBE Gear Pumps in Astolfo Dutra

Mechanical seal configuration is defined by engineering according to the fluid, temperature and operating pressure. Options include single seals, double seals (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge seals and packing glands for specific applications. For hazardous fluids, double seals with barrier are recommended.

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 Astolfo Dutra, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.

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 Astolfo Dutra is by road, shipping directly from the factory.

Yes. As a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME — the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency —, FB Bombas qualifies equipment supplied to Astolfo Dutra for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods), with preferential conditions for national industry. On the technical proposal, the commercial team includes the product's FINAME code to enter the customer's financial plan.

Yes. FB Bombas application engineering supports ISO 10816 vibration analysis (velocity RMS in mm/s) for diagnosing misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation on pumps installed in Astolfo Dutra. The service includes baseline capture at startup, spectral comparison during PM campaigns, and intervention recommendations (re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment) before vibration exceeds the standard’s zone D.

Yes. A complete technical Data Book accompanies each FB Bombas pump that reaches Astolfo Dutra: 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.

To receive a technical quote for industrial pumps in Astolfo Dutra, send via website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 or email comercial@fbbombas.com.br the application data: fluid (name + viscosity at operating temperature), target flow (m³/h), discharge head (m), available NPSH, operating temperature and regime (continuous or intermittent). Application engineering responds with a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time.

Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Astolfo Dutra, 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.

Yes. FB Bombas offers technical training for operations and maintenance teams in Astolfo Dutra, with modules on: sizing and reading the characteristic curve, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Training can be delivered at the customer plant or at the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.

The portfolio covers four in-house series: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for low-pulsation services, FBCN (standardized centrifugal) for water and light fluids and FBOT (dedicated centrifugal) for thermal oil — plus complete fire-fighting systems per NFPA 20 and NBR 16704.
