Gear pump selection for Alhandra starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of caldo de cana, melaço e vinhaça. With that data, engineering defines speed (flow is proportional), bushing materials and the thermal arrangement: jacketed body for cold starts and a seal compatible with the hot fluid. Material selection for melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana in Alhandra considers AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere — a specification FB Bombas details on a matweb sheet after fluid chemical analysis. The applicable operating envelope spans FBCN centrifugal pumps with flow up to 2,200 m³/h, head up to 135 m and temperature up to 260°C (thermal oil via FBOT up to 350°C) — sufficient for most industrial applications identified in Alhandra. In Alhandra, FBE+FBEI and FBCN+FBOT cover the technical range observed in the field — from primary transfer and circulation to replacing an installed pump carrying the same ASME B73.1 dimensional designation. Typical applications mapped for Alhandra include transferência de melaço, dosagem de aditivos, circulação de caldo and destilação — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. 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 Alhandra; secondary-plan adjustments and dual cartridges are considered based on fluid criticality and environmental requirement. Before shipment to Alhandra, each pump is tested on a hydraulic bench with ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — FB Bombas standard protocol.
Alhandra: high fluid complexity, diversified fluid roster — requires a broad catalogue of materials and sealing configurations. Alhandra: low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Alhandra has a services-oriented economy (86.5% of value added, IBGE 2021; 2023 GDP of R$ 3.1 billion) — in this profile, typical projects involve centrifugals for utilities, reservoirs and fire networks, with the FBCN as the reference series. At state scale, Alhandra belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state. Alhandra: by affinity to the portuario cluster, continuous flow with seasonality tied to agricultural harvests (bulk) and fuel supply — a variable that enters commercial planning. Typical fluids handled in Alhandra (melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana) require careful selection of seal and coating materials — a central variable in pump sizing. The portuario cluster near Alhandra brings applications such as bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge — a repertoire FB Bombas serves with dedicated series and field-validated materials. sucroalcooleiro operations in Alhandra demand continuous pumping of process fluids, with preventive-maintenance windows aligned to plant scheduled outages. For engineered-to-order projects in Alhandra, FB Bombas offers custom solutions — mounted skids, mobile sets (diesel/electric trailer) and retrofit of legacy equipment. Typical use cases identified for Alhandra: series FBE+FBEI for transferência de melaço and dosagem de aditivos and series FBCN+FBOT for circulação de caldo and destilação. Fire protection systems (NFPA 20 / ABNT NBR 16704) are a recurring application in industrial plants in Alhandra — scope covered by FB Bombas' FBFS line.
Logistics lead time to Alhandra is 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 2196 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Alhandra via BR-101 (via PE) — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. On projects for Alhandra, logistics may include multimodal consolidation — a relevant alternative for large equipment or tight deadlines. Alternative routing to Alhandra can use BR-101, BR-230 and BR-104, which helps in heavy-traffic situations or maintenance on specific roads. The technical-service model in Alhandra is structured as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip. The factory-to-Alhandra logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Alhandra — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Alhandra. The FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series cover the same applications served by imported equipment — with advantages in lead time (no import), direct factory technical support, spare parts for FB pumps themselves and Portuguese-speaking application engineering. In a normalized centrifugal retrofit, ASME B73.1 requires that units of the same standard dimension designation, from any source of supply, be interchangeable as to mounting dimensions, suction and discharge nozzles, input shaft and foundation bolt holes.
Who serves Alhandra 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 Alhandra are added to the plan.
Lead time depends on the chosen series, construction materials and stock availability. For standard configuration pumps, lead times are shorter; for special or custom constructions, the schedule is informed in the technical proposal. Logistics for Alhandra is handled by our regular road operator.
The local industrial profile concentrates demand on viscous fluid transfer — circulação de caldo e transferência de melaço em usinas. In these services, the FBE series delivers stable flow regardless of pressure and operates up to 350 °C with a heating jacket, covering from lubricating oils to asphalt and resins.
Every FB pump leaves the factory with a warranty against manufacturing defects, under the terms detailed in the commercial proposal. The condition is that installation, operation and maintenance respect the manual's parameters and the sizing defined by engineering.
