For Pitangui, 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 a starting specification — fine-tuning happens with the actual system curve (friction, available NPSH, headloss). Technical fit in Pitangui points to FBEI and FBCN+FBOT as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. In Pitangui, materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion answer the requirements of óleos lubrificantes de laminação, água de processo and óleo térmico — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). In Pitangui, lubrificação de cadeiras de laminação, resfriamento de lingotamento and aquecimento de processo are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. Pitangui: dual cartridge mechanical seal (API 682 Plan 53A/53B) for hazardous or high-temperature fluids — a configuration FB Bombas uses as initial reference; refinement depends on risk class and applicable environmental regulation. For Pitangui (466 km from Cabreúva-SP), the critical-parts logistics cycle runs in 48-72h — a workable window for regular PM campaigns with controlled risk of extended downtime. Before shipment to Pitangui, each pump is tested on a hydraulic bench with ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — FB Bombas standard protocol.
Technically, Pitangui shows medium complexity in its fluid mix — moderate fluid roster — concentration in a few main technical categories. Demand in Pitangui is characterized by low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. Logistics-commercial aspect: balanced logistics — freight is a contained fraction of equipment cost. Observed seasonal pattern: continuous operation with annual scheduled maintenance and occasional outages tied to production campaigns. Pitangui follows the same rhythm as the nearby siderurgico cluster. Pitangui: has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale, a structural variable in the commercial offer. Working with óleos lubrificantes de laminação, água de processo and óleo térmico in Pitangui demands attention to viscosity at operating temperature, residual abrasiveness and chemical compatibility — criteria FB engineering applies on every project. In Pitangui, series FBEI for lubrificação de cadeiras de laminação and series FBCN+FBOT for resfriamento de lingotamento and aquecimento de processo — a combination that covers the typical local industrial demand. In Pitangui, fire-pump sets (electric, diesel or electric+diesel) follow NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 — supplied through FBFS. In Pitangui, siderurgia plants concentrate recurring demand for centrifugal pumps for utilities and positive-displacement pumps for viscous fluids. Pitangui: special projects (skids, retrofit, mobile sets) are part of FB's portfolio, anchored in the already-normalized hydraulics of the FBCN/FBE series. Due to proximity to the siderurgico cluster, Pitangui shares a technical agenda with blast-furnace cooling systems, rolling-mill lubricating oils and thermal oil in continuous furnaces — a direct path to series and materials selection.
24-48h via federal highways: this is the typical delivery interval Cabreúva-SP → Pitangui, based on a consolidated road route and FB-qualified logistics operators. The service structure for Pitangui is sized as planned technical visits with 1-2 day mobilization window — direct coordination with the customer, with escalation to additional visits in cases of commissioning, troubleshooting or complex retrofit. The BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias corridor (466 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Pitangui — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. Indivisible cargo bound for Pitangui requires AET (special transit permit) and motorized escort per state road regulations — process managed within FB's supply scope. BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116 broaden FB's transport flexibility to Pitangui — useful in tight-window PM campaigns or for cargo whose gauge requires routes with specific bridges/curves. The factory-to-Pitangui dispatch includes technical packaging (impact protection, moisture sealing), multilingual documentation (PT/EN/ES when required) and approved-carrier tracking.

Regional service from Pitangui — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — a feature that enables dimensional retrofit on existing baseplates in Pitangui plants originally equipped with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds or Flowserve. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard; the rotating set is swapped without changing piping or baseplate.
Yes. FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing installations, including seal upgrades, replacement of worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance improvement. The assessment is based on a technical report of the current installation.
Yes. In addition to the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops custom solutions for special applications, including modifications in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Special projects go through engineering before manufacturing.
Yes. FBOT is FB Bombas’ specific centrifugal pump for thermal oil circuits, operating at elevated temperatures with fluids like Therminol, Dowtherm and similar. Material and sealing selection is done according to the maximum operating temperature and type of thermal oil.
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.
