Information for your project

Application context and points to confirm during technical and commercial review.

Initial guidance

For projects in Viçosa, Minas Gerais, FB Bombas provides service from its factory in Cabreúva, Brazil. FBE external gear pumps and FBEI internal gear pumps have their own documentation and operating conditions. Provide the fluid, viscosity at operating temperature and any known flow and pressure data. The team reviews the appropriate configuration.

Industrial context

Identify the fluid by its trade name and available composition. Add viscosity at operating temperature, solids content and startup conditions. These data allow materials and sealing to be assessed before the configuration is confirmed.

For industrial projects in Viçosa, FB Bombas provides direct service from its factory in Cabreúva, Brazil. A pump manufacturer since 1944, the company reviews the process, fluid and installation conditions with your team to define the equipment.

State whether the requirement is an expansion, new installation or equipment replacement. For replacement, pump identification and its dimensional drawing help check the duty point and existing interfaces.

Technical criteria

For gear pumps in Viçosa, review FBE external gear pumps and FBEI internal gear pumps separately. Their models, drives and limits are not interchangeable; provide viscosity at startup and operating temperatures to assess the configuration.

The project location in Viçosa does not determine the pump series. Compare families by fluid and process, then confirm selection using flow, pressure or head, temperature, viscosity and installation conditions.

If the project in Viçosa requires testing or witnessed inspection, specify test points, acceptance criteria and required reports in the purchase requirements. The team confirms capability and scope before supply, according to the series and configuration.

Applications and operation

For economic context, IBGE records GDP of R$ 2.2 billion for Viçosa in 2023. In the 2021 gross value added breakdown, industry accounts for approximately 11.4% and agriculture for approximately 1.9%. Reference years differ because the 2022–2023 publication does not include a sector breakdown. These data describe the municipality; pumping requirements need to be specified for your plant’s process.

For fluids with varying properties in the process in Viçosa, provide composition, temperature and viscosity ranges plus startup and cleaning conditions. Identify each product that will pass through the assembly to guide the review of materials, sealing and drive.

If the operation in Viçosa uses different fluids, record composition, viscosity, temperature and solids content separately for each circuit. Compatibility with one product does not establish that the pump will serve every other plant process.

To describe the industrial application in Viçosa, identify the process stage and whether the pump will transfer, circulate or feed another item of equipment. The same plant may have circuits with different fluid, flow, pressure and duty requirements.

Supply and service

Reference distance

About 510 km in a straight line between the factory in Cabreúva, São Paulo, and the geographic center of the municipality (IBGE centroid). It is not a road route, freight cost or lead time.

How the distance is calculated

Haversine formula, treating the Earth as a sphere with a radius of 6,371 km, between the factory’s reference coordinates (Av. Adolpho João Traldi, 80 - Jacaré, Cabreúva-SP) and the municipal centroid published by IBGE in its Geographic Mesh API, retrieved on September 24, 2026. The centroid is a reference point of the municipal territory, not the municipal seat or the delivery location. The result is rounded to multiples of 5 km; below 20 km, only “less than 20 km” is shown.

IBGE Mesh API documentation

The schedule for Viçosa should distinguish equipment availability, preparation for dispatch and transport. The proposal confirms dates and responsibilities for each stage according to the requested configuration.

Before dispatch to Viçosa, confirm the approved configuration, contracted documentation and delivery details with the sales team.

Send your requirements

To review the FBE / FBEI families for the project in Viçosa, send the fluid and any known flow, pressure or head and temperature data. For replacement, add the installed pump’s identification and drawing. The team confirms the configuration and proposal scope.

Questions about our service

Information to help you prepare your inquiry to FB Bombas.

Does FB Bombas serve Viçosa?

Yes. Projects in Viçosa are handled by the factory team in Cabreúva, Brazil. Send your industrial requirement and the data already available. Configuration, availability, transport and any on-site service are confirmed according to the requested scope.

Does FB Bombas retrofit older pumps?

By replacement, not refurbishment. FB Bombas replaces the old pump with a new, complete FB pump manufactured in Cabreúva, Brazil. Before the order, engineering assesses the installation and issues a data sheet and dimensional drawing; the drawing confirms whether the existing baseplate and piping can be kept or need adaptation. FB does not refurbish other manufacturers’ pumps, sell third-party parts or reuse the installed casing. For FB pumps in service, it supplies original parts and maintenance contracts.

Are FB pumps easy to maintain?

It depends on the series. On the FBCN and FBOT, back pull-out construction allows the bearing-housing assembly to be removed without disconnecting the piping, and the FBEI catalogue also indicates back pull-out construction. The FBE external gear pump is not back pull-out: its shafts are supported on bushings. Before working on the equipment in Viçosa, check the series manual, the sectional drawing and the parts list.

Do FBCN pumps follow ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance?

No: manual MTEC-03/00 states mechanical construction per ASME B73.1, not dimensional compliance with that standard. So, before a replacement in Viçosa, interchangeability with the existing pump is checked on each model’s drawing, together with the duty point, materials and drive.

Are FB pumps energy efficient?

It depends on the model and the duty point; there is no single efficiency figure for the brand. The FBCN and FBME characteristic curves show the efficiency of each model and, for stainless-steel impellers with passages up to 15 mm, the FBCN manual deducts 2 or 3 points from the curve efficiency (Table 4). For the project in Viçosa, compare the absorbed power at the process flow, head and fluid, also considering drive, control and operating duty.

Are replacement parts available for customers in Viçosa?

Yes, for FB product lines. The FBE catalogue lists replacement components such as shafts, gears, bushing sets, covers, mechanical seal, lip seal and relief valve, and the FBEI and FBME manuals include spare-parts lists for two years of operation. For delivery to Viçosa, state the series, model, manufacturing number and component; compatibility, availability and lead time are confirmed in the quotation. Supply ships from the factory in Cabreúva, Brazil; the city page does not indicate local stock. Use original parts: the FBME service manual makes the operating and performance warranty conditional on original parts and FB’s consent.

What is the advantage of buying from a national manufacturer like FB Bombas?

FB Bombas serves projects in Viçosa from its Cabreúva-SP factory, with direct engineering support and parts supply for its equipment. Availability, lead time, transport and on-site service are assessed according to the request. Its industrial pump manufacturing history began in 1944.

How do I contact FB Bombas’ technical team?

Use WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837, telephone +55 11 4898-9200, comercial@fbbombas.com.br or the website form. To help the team, describe the application, project destination and any pump data already available.

Is FB Bombas a national alternative to imported manufacturers in Viçosa?

FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer with direct service from its factory in Cabreúva. To compare an alternative for the project in Viçosa, check performance, materials, dimensions, documentation and commercial conditions. Brazilian origin alone does not guarantee lower cost, shorter lead time or technical equivalence.

How can I check whether an FBCN can replace the centrifugal pump installed in Viçosa?

FB Bombas supplies the complete FBCN and checks, model by model, the dimensions in manual MTEC-03/00 (baseplate, nozzles, flanges and shaft) and the duty point before the order. The manual states mechanical construction per ASME B73.1; dimensional interchangeability with the existing pump is not assumed and is confirmed on the drawing. Send the identification and drawing of the pump installed in Viçosa, with flow, head, fluid, materials and drive.
