Cachoeira de Minas receives equipment after hydraulic testing and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — traceable report attached to the Data Book. In Cachoeira de Minas, materials such as cast iron with proper coating or stainless steels when the fluid requires answer the requirements of óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). In Cachoeira de Minas, FBEI and FBCN cover the technical range observed in the field — from primary transfer and circulation to replacing an installed pump carrying the same ASME B73.1 dimensional designation. What defines the FBE external gear pump in Cachoeira de Minas is its behavior under variable pressure: being positive displacement, flow follows speed and practically ignores backpressure swings in the line — the typical case of óleos industriais e fluidos de processo. Two installation requirements follow from this physics: a sized relief valve on the discharge and, for fluids that harden when cold, a heating jacket on the pump body.
The low fluid-complexity profile in Cachoeira de Minas (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. Cachoeira de Minas shows a medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). Cachoeira de Minas has a factory-floor economy: 53.2% of municipal value added is industrial (IBGE, 2021), over a 2023 GDP of R$ 610 million. This profile concentrates demand on process pumps and maintenance contracts with fast parts replacement. Cachoeira de Minas: óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives: this is the typical application set around the refino cluster in which Cachoeira de Minas sits. Cachoeira de Minas has indústria de transformação as its main industrial-pump application front — from primary transfer to internal circulation in process equipment.
For Cachoeira de Minas, 12-24h via direct road modal is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand.

Regional service from Cachoeira de Minas — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Every FB Bombas pump delivered to Cachoeira de Minas comes with a complete technical Data Book: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates (stainless, duplex, ductile cast iron per spec), ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve measured on the bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual, and as-built drawings. All documentation is traceable by the unit serial number.
The FB portfolio handles an extensive spectrum of fluids. The FBE series takes mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins plus viscous chemical and hydraulic products; the FBCN series works with raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents; the FBOT series is dedicated to thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Each case is sized considering viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
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. 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 Cachoeira de Minas, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.
Send flow, differential pressure, working temperature and fluid viscosity: with these four data points FB engineering calculates the right model, also validating available NPSH, operating regime and material compatibility. The service is free of charge for customers in Cachoeira de Minas.
Service to Cachoeira de Minas 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 Cachoeira de Minas are planned based on project criticality.
Yes, we do. Supply for Cachoeira de Minas ships directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP and includes engineering support, spare parts for all four series and free sizing — critical projects may receive an on-site technical visit.
Lead time depends on the chosen series, construction materials and stock availability. For standard configuration pumps, lead times are shorter; for special or custom constructions, the schedule is informed in the technical proposal. Logistics for Cachoeira de Minas is handled by our regular road operator.
Yes. ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance — the North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps — is a feature of the FBCN series and enables retrofit on existing baseplates in Cachoeira de Minas plants, regardless of which brand occupied the base, provided the designation coincides. Shaft, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline obey the standard, so the new pump takes the position without touching piping or baseplate.
FB Bombas manufactures four major lines: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for lubricating fluids, FBCN (normalized centrifugal) for water and low-viscosity fluids, and FBOT (specific centrifugal) for thermal oil circuits. We also serve fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA and NBR 16704.
Fill out the form and our technical team will contact you to size the ideal pump — gear (FBE/FBEI) or centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT).
