Based in Cabreúva-SP at 827 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, FB Bombas delivers to Poté industrial pumps manufactured in-house since 1944 plus continuous technical support. Poté sits 200 km from the steel cluster centered in Ipatinga, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. The city sits within the IBGE mesoregion Vale do Mucuri, a regional grouping of municipalities with similar economic and logistics profiles — useful for comparative analysis and technical-visit routing. Logistically, the city connects to Cabreúva-SP via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, complemented by alternatives BR-381, BR-040, BR-262 and BR-116 — a network that supports technical service within tight operational windows. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in MG qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Poté 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. In Poté, óleos industriais and água industrial 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). FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Poté, Minas Gerais, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the local industry sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and qualification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification.
The FB model for Poté: 72-96h logistics lead time, with the option to accelerate via air modal or alternative routing in operational emergencies. Sitting in the technical context of a siderurgico cluster, Poté benefits from accumulated learning around cooling water, rolling-mill lubricating oils and thermal oil in furnaces. In Poté, transferência geral and utilidades form the typical-use portfolio — guiding series selection, sealing configuration and internal coating according to fluid abrasiveness or aggressiveness. Technical fit in Poté 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.
In Poté, value added is dominated by services (34.6%, IBGE 2021), with a 2023 GDP of R$ 214 million — a profile where pumping demand concentrates on building infrastructure, sanitation, HVAC and utilities, FBCN centrifugal territory. Poté: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. At state scale, Poté has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale. 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 Poté sits. For Poté, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering. Poté: óleos industriais and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy.
Cabreúva-SP → Poté via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias (827 km): a corridor with regular FB freight history, supporting indivisible loads and sets with escort when the gauge demands. For Poté, 48-72h, with possible technical stop is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand. For Poté, FB dispatch is preceded by: hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run with curve points, G2.5 dynamic balancing and Data Book closure — all traceable by serial number.
FB engineers serve Poté with a formal technical proposal: curve-based sizing, materials, NPSH, field conditions and lead time. First engineering response within 1 business day; complete proposal within 3-5 business days.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
FB Bombas serves Poté and neighboring municipalities with the same technical team — optimized visits and supply in joint campaigns.
For critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings) during a plant shutdown in Poté, 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, when the dimension designation matches. The FBCN series follows ASME B73.1 (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps), which requires pumps of the same designation, from any source of supply, to be interchangeable as to mounting dimensions, suction and discharge nozzles, input shaft, baseplate and foundation bolt holes — in Poté plants this applies to the installed normalized fleet. FB Bombas supplies the complete pump, not loose parts: baseplate, piping and foundation stay, and a new FBCN goes in. Before supply, application engineering checks the duty point (Q×H), available NPSH and flange class — a matching designation alone does not guarantee hydraulic equivalence.
Yes. Every FB Bombas pump delivered to Poté comes with a complete technical Data Book: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates (stainless, duplex, ductile cast iron per spec), ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve measured on the bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual, and as-built drawings. All documentation is traceable by the unit serial number.
Who serves Poté is the FB Bombas factory team itself in Cabreúva/SP. In practice: direct access to application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation returned within 3-5 business days and original parts supplied at factory pricing. Depending on project criticality, on-site technical visits to Poté are added to the plan.
Yes. Operations and maintenance teams in Poté count on FB Bombas technical training, structured in modules: sizing and characteristic-curve reading, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Classes can happen at the customer plant or at the factory in Cabreúva/SP, in-person or hybrid format.
It depends on the service: fluid, temperature and operating pressure determine the configuration, which engineering defines. Available options are single seal, double seal (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge version and, in specific applications, packing glands. Hazardous fluids call for a double seal with barrier — that is the recommended option.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Poté with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
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. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Poté, FB Bombas has manufactured industrial pumps in Brazil since 1944. Applications currently running on imported equipment are covered by the FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series — adding advantages in lead time (no import), factory-direct technical support, spare parts for FB pumps and application engineering that works in Portuguese. In a normalized-line retrofit, the interchangeability set out in ASME B73.1 holds between units of the same standard dimension designation, whatever the original supplier.
Yes. As a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME — the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency —, FB Bombas qualifies equipment supplied to Poté for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods), with preferential conditions for national industry. On the technical proposal, the commercial team includes the product's FINAME code to enter the customer's financial plan.
