Technical summary
For industrial water and low-viscosity fluids in local industry (Sarzedo, Minas Gerais), FB engineering recommends FBCN. API 610 compliance and hydraulic testing, 48-72h lead time from Cabreúva-SP.


In Sarzedo, 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). In Sarzedo, Minas Gerais, FB Bombas serves local industry projects with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series — dedicated application engineering for sizing against the actual system curve, CRCC Petrobras certification and technical compliance with API 610 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting). Membership in the Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte mesoregion (IBGE) places Sarzedo in a regional economic mesh — a factor FB Bombas uses to optimize multi-city maintenance campaigns and consolidate freight across customers along the same axis. 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. Sarzedo sits 10 km from the refining cluster centered in Betim, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. CRCC Petrobras certification valid in MG qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Sarzedo in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE and FBCN series compliant with API 610 / API 676 and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 477 km via BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, FB Bombas reaches Sarzedo with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects.

The FB model for Sarzedo: 48-72h logistics lead time, with the option to accelerate via air modal or alternative routing in operational emergencies. dual cartridge mechanical seal (API 682 Plan 53A/53B) for hazardous or high-temperature fluids is the initial sealing configuration for Sarzedo; secondary-plan adjustments and dual cartridges are considered based on fluid criticality and environmental requirement. Technical fit in Sarzedo 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 Sarzedo, transferência geral and utilidades form the typical-use portfolio — guiding series selection, sealing configuration and internal coating according to fluid abrasiveness or aggressiveness.
Sarzedo: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Sarzedo: low fluid complexity, lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Sarzedo: by affinity to the refino cluster, scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain — a variable that enters commercial planning. The refino cluster around Sarzedo concentrates applications crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. Use cases in Sarzedo (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 fluid catalogue in Sarzedo (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile.
The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Sarzedo is BR-381 Rodovia Fernão Dias, totaling 477 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Typical transit time to Sarzedo: 24-48h via federal highways — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. Technical-service coverage for Sarzedo involves planned technical visits with 1-2 day mobilization window — direct coordination with the customer.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Sarzedo — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
FB Bombas manufactures three major lines: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for lubricating fluids, FBCN (normalized centrifugal) for water and low-viscosity fluids, and FBOT (specific centrifugal) for thermal oil circuits. We also serve fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA and NBR 16704.
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.
FB Bombas has been manufacturing industrial pumps since 1944, with over 82 years of continuous experience. The factory in Cabreúva/SP operates with engineering, manufacturing and testing under one roof, ensuring total quality control on every unit supplied to Sarzedo and all of Brazil.
Yes. The FBE and FBCN lines were designed with easy access to wear-prone components, allowing disassembly and inspection with conventional tools. Detailed technical manuals and direct factory replacement parts availability simplify maintenance routines.
The FB Bombas rotating set is balanced per ISO 21940 G2.5 (a balancing grade equivalent to API 610 requirements for heavy-duty service) — required for critical projects in Sarzedo with continuous regime, plants with online vibration monitoring or applications with high cost of unplanned downtime. For machines running above 3,600 RPM or with rotating mass over 50 kg, balancing is performed on two planes with a piezoelectric sensor.

Yes. FB Bombas offers technical training for operations and maintenance teams in Sarzedo, with modules on: sizing and reading the characteristic curve, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Training can be delivered at the customer plant or at the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.
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. 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 Sarzedo 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 is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Sarzedo. The FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series cover applications typically served by global manufacturers such as KSB, Sulzer, Imbil and Grundfos — with advantages in lead time (no import), direct support without intermediaries, fast spare-parts availability and Portuguese-speaking application engineering. For retrofits, ASME B73.1 normalization ensures dimensional interchangeability with existing baseplates.
