Centrifugal Pumps for Mining in Nova Lima

Local context

Cabreúva-SP → Nova Lima (503 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book. For Nova Lima, FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing baseplates — FBCN centrifugal pumps follow ASME B73.1 normalization, dimensionally interchangeable with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds and other global manufacturers already installed in the plant. The IBGE classification places Nova Lima in the Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte mesoregion — an area whose industrial profile directly influences demand for rotating equipment. For pumping projects in Nova Lima, FB Bombas provides dedicated application engineering — pre-sizing against the actual system curve, material selection (AISI 316) and on-site commissioning support. Nova Lima has mineração and tecnologia as its main industrial front — which directly shapes the pump type (gear, centrifugal, thermal-oil) with technical fit for each plant. Only 23 km from the automotive cluster of Contagem, Nova Lima benefits from logistics spillover and movement of technical professionals — FB Bombas has a service track record in the region. For the Nova Lima, Minas Gerais market, FB Bombas offers industrial pumps with certified hydraulic tests, API 610 (heavy-duty centrifugal), ASME B73.1 (dimensional interchangeability) and a traceable Data Book per unit — a technical package that shortens the customer homologation cycle. The FB Bombas FBCN series answers mineração demand in Nova Lima — FBCN centrifugal pumps for industrial water transfer, pulps and slurries in mining operations. Operating range: High flow up to 1,200 m³/h, Abrasive resistance, Multiple construction materials. In Nova Lima, água de processo and lamas diluídas make up the fluid portfolio served by local plants — each with its own requirements on available NPSH, in-service viscosity and sealing strategy (Plan 11/13/52/53 by criticality). The road network BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116, with BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias as the main axis, defines response time for critical-part shipments and technical visits to Nova Lima.

Technical solutions

Nova Lima is served with a logistics lead time of 48-72h for critical parts from Cabreúva-SP, subject to case-by-case optimization. Nova Lima: água de processo and lamas diluídas suggest materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion — a choice impacting both durability and cost of the pump-and-motor set. In Nova Lima, recalque de água and barragens de rejeito form the typical-use portfolio — guiding series selection, sealing configuration and internal coating according to fluid abrasiveness or aggressiveness. Nova Lima receives equipment after hydraulic testing and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — traceable report attached to the Data Book. single cartridge mechanical seal (Plan 11/13) for general service, upgradable to dual when the fluid requires secondary containment is the initial sealing configuration for Nova Lima; secondary-plan adjustments and dual cartridges are considered based on fluid criticality and environmental requirement. FBCN centrifugal pumps with flow up to 2,200 m³/h, head up to 138 m and temperature up to 260°C (thermal oil via FBOT up to 350°C) is the operating window initially considered for Nova Lima — the final curve is finalized after piping-network analysis (head loss, geometric head, required vs. available NPSH). Sitting in the technical context of a automotivo cluster, Nova Lima benefits from accumulated learning around cutting fluids, hydraulic oils, paint-line water and process cooling. FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Nova Lima, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime.
