Technical summary
The FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Jequitinhonha, Minas Gerais for local industry — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (996 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


The fluid roster in Jequitinhonha (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands attention to viscosity, operating temperature and chemical compatibility — variables that FB application engineering uses to recommend the proper series. Jequitinhonha is served by the BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias axis and also by highways BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. Just 153 km separate Jequitinhonha from the pulp-and-paper cluster of Eunapolis — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. The city sits within the IBGE mesoregion Jequitinhonha, a regional grouping of municipalities with similar economic and logistics profiles — useful for comparative analysis and technical-visit routing. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in MG qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Jequitinhonha in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE (API 676) and FBCN (ASME B73.1) series and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, FB Bombas supplies Jequitinhonha, Minas Gerais with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT, FBEI series and FBFS fire-fighting systems — designed and produced in Cabreúva-SP with API 676 compliance, ASME B73.1 normalization (interchangeable with global manufacturers), API 610 engineered-to-order projects and a traceable Data Book on every unit shipped. From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 996 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, FB Bombas reaches Jequitinhonha with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects.

Gear pump selection for Jequitinhonha starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. With that data, engineering defines speed (flow is proportional), bushing materials and the thermal arrangement: jacketed body for cold starts and a seal compatible with the hot fluid. Typical applications mapped for Jequitinhonha include transferência geral and utilidades — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. Technical fit in Jequitinhonha points to FBEI and FBCN as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. The pump-and-motor set shipped to Jequitinhonha undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
Fluid-roster complexity in Jequitinhonha is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. The demand profile in Jequitinhonha reflects high industrial density — multiple plants in a small radius, meaningful cumulative demand. Jequitinhonha has a services-oriented economy (40.3% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 384 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. The fluid catalogue in Jequitinhonha (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. The papel-celulose cluster around Jequitinhonha concentrates applications white/black liquor circulation, recovery-boiler feed and low-to-medium consistency stock pumping — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. Use cases in Jequitinhonha (series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region.
Jequitinhonha receives equipment within 48-72h, with possible technical stop counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory. Cabreúva-SP to Jequitinhonha: 996 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, a consolidated corridor with carriers qualified by FB Bombas for heavy-equipment cargo. Before shipment to Jequitinhonha, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.
FB engineers serve Jequitinhonha for the FBE series with a sized proposal — duty point, fluid, field conditions and supply lead time.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Jequitinhonha — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. On the factory bench in Cabreúva/SP the FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is carried out: hydraulic test with characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration — witnessed by customer inspection when specified. The SAT (Site Acceptance Test) on Jequitinhonha projects counts on application engineering during commissioning, including startup checklist, laser alignment and recording of the baseline vibration signature.
They are. For each delivery to Jequitinhonha, FB Bombas assembles the unit's complete technical Data Book, containing: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates — stainless steel, duplex or ductile cast iron, per spec —, ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve obtained on the bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual and as-built drawings. Full traceability happens through the serial number.
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 Jequitinhonha, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
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.
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 Jequitinhonha is handled by our regular road operator.
It does. The technical support and logistics covering Jequitinhonha are the same applied to the metropolitan region and nearby microregions. That operating radius enables coordinated service to industrial plants distributed across several cities.
In Jequitinhonha, service comes directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP, through the FB Bombas team. The customer speaks with application engineering for sizing, receives the complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and buys original parts at factory pricing. When project criticality warrants it, on-site technical visits to Jequitinhonha are scheduled.
There is. Full production in Cabreúva/SP guarantees factory replacement parts for all four series — planned shutdowns get short lead times and emergencies receive priority handling, which protects the total cost of ownership of the equipment installed in Jequitinhonha.
Three fluid fronts are covered by the FB series. FBE: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products. FBCN: raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents. FBOT: thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility guide the sizing of every application.
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 Jequitinhonha have already made this replacement with gains in lead time, cost and local support.
