For the technical profile observed in Capelinha, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBEI and FBCN as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature. Capelinha: transferência geral and utilidades. This application mix is covered by the recommended FB series, with case-by-case fine tuning. In Capelinha, materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion answer the requirements of óleos industriais and água industrial — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). The pump-and-motor set shipped to Capelinha undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
Capelinha: low fluid complexity, lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Capelinha: high industrial density — multiple plants in a small radius, meaningful cumulative demand — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Capelinha: by affinity to the siderurgico cluster, continuous operation with annual scheduled maintenance and occasional outages tied to production campaigns — a variable that enters commercial planning. Capelinha: óleos industriais and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. For Capelinha, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering. blast-furnace cooling systems, rolling-mill lubricating oils and thermal oil in continuous furnaces: this is the typical application set around the siderurgico cluster in which Capelinha sits.
Capelinha receives equipment within 48-72h, with possible technical stop counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory.

Regional service from Capelinha — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
For critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings) during a plant shutdown in Capelinha, FB Bombas runs an emergency flow: pre-invoicing, priority dispatch and alternative modal (express road or air transport depending on distance and criticality). Typical lead time varies by region, with a window negotiable case by case. For customers with an installed base and scheduled PM, part of the stock can be kept on consignment at the plant.
Yes. FB Bombas manufactures pumps for stationary fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and ABNT NBR 16704 standards, serving building and industrial projects that require these certifications.
Yes. The FBCN series follows ASME B73.1 normalization (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps) — which makes the pump-and-motor set interchangeable with global manufacturers (KSB, Sulzer, Goulds, Flowserve) already installed in plants in Capelinha. For retrofits, the existing baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations are usually preserved; what changes is the rotating set. FB application engineering performs the dimensional gap analysis prior to supply.
Yes. Since FB Bombas manufactures entirely in Cabreúva/SP, replacement parts for the FBE, FBEI, FBCN and FBOT series are available directly from the factory, with short lead times for scheduled stops and priority service for emergencies. This significantly reduces total cost of ownership.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Capelinha with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
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 Capelinha. 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.
Maximum temperature depends on the series: FBE and FBEI operate up to 350°C with heating jacket and special sealing; FBOT operates up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN operates up to 250°C with proper materials and sealing. Correct sizing of sealing and materials is essential for safe operation.

Application engineering responds with a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time.
Yes. FB Bombas’ application engineering analyzes the installed pump specifications (flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature) and proposes dimensional or functional technical equivalence with one of our series. Many clients in Capelinha have already made this replacement with gains in lead time, cost and local support.
The FB line covers a wide range: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products (FBE series); raw and treated water, process fluids, industrial effluents (FBCN series); thermal oil at elevated temperatures (FBOT series). Each application is sized according to fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
