Technical summary
The FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Manhumirim, Minas Gerais for local industry — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (627 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


Typical fluids in Manhumirim's industrial operations include óleos industriais and água industrial — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series. FB Bombas application engineering serves Manhumirim 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). Manhumirim, Minas Gerais is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 years of continuous operation. For the local industry industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series with CRCC Petrobras qualification, API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization (API 610 engineered-to-order projects) — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed. Industrial plants in Manhumirim rely on FB Bombas spares held in scheduled stock: semi-open and open impellers, wear rings in various materials, dual cartridge seals API 682 Plan 53 and SKF/FAG bearings per the original spec. Only 116 km from the steel cluster of Ipatinga, Manhumirim benefits from logistics spillover and movement of technical professionals — FB Bombas has a service track record in the region. Road access runs via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, with branches through BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 627 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, FB Bombas reaches Manhumirim with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects.

For the industrial park of Manhumirim, the FBE series answers the services kinetic hydraulics cannot cover: transfer with stable flow under fluctuating pressure, dosing proportional to speed and high-viscosity fluids — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. Sizing validates starting torque at the coldest condition of the year — the classic mistake that shears keys in undersized pumps. For the technical profile observed in Manhumirim, 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. For óleos industriais and água industrial, the materials recommendation in Manhumirim converges on cast iron with proper coating or stainless steels when the fluid requires, a starting point adjustable based on field-observed corrosion. The pump-and-motor set shipped to Manhumirim undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
Manhumirim: low fluid complexity, lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Manhumirim has a services-oriented economy (64.6% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 588 million) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. Manhumirim: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. The fluid catalogue in Manhumirim (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Use cases in Manhumirim (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. The siderurgico cluster around Manhumirim concentrates applications blast-furnace cooling systems, rolling-mill lubricating oils and thermal oil in continuous furnaces — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history.
Logistics lead time to Manhumirim is 24-48h via federal highways — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 627 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Manhumirim via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. The factory-to-Manhumirim logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Regional service from Manhumirim — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
They are. For each delivery to Manhumirim, 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.
Every FB pump leaves the factory with a warranty against manufacturing defects, under the terms detailed in the commercial proposal. The condition is that installation, operation and maintenance respect the manual's parameters and the sizing defined by engineering. For details on your project in Manhumirim, talk to our technical team.
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 Manhumirim is handled by our regular road operator.
Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — which enables retrofit on existing baseplates in Manhumirim plants, whoever manufactured the installed unit, provided the dimension designation matches. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard: the complete FBCN pump goes in and piping and baseplate stay put.
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 Manhumirim projects counts on application engineering during commissioning, including startup checklist, laser alignment and recording of the baseline vibration signature.
It does. FB pumps for stationary fire protection systems follow the NFPA standard (National Fire Protection Association) and ABNT's NBR 16704, requirements demanded in building and industrial projects that call for these certifications.
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.
