For local industry in Areia, Paraíba, FB Bombas sizes FBEI, FBCN series from its Cabreúva-SP factory (2190 km). ASME B73.1 standardization, hydraulic testing, Petrobras CRCC and 96h to 7 days logistics lead time.
From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 2190 km via BR-101 (via PE), FB Bombas reaches Areia with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects. FB Bombas maintains in Areia the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 676 + ASME B73.1 (API 610 on engineered-to-order projects) — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. For Areia, FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing baseplates — the FBCN centrifugal follows ASME B73.1, whose dimension designation is common to the entire installed normalized fleet, whoever the original manufacturer was. Just 164 km separate Areia from the port cluster of Cabo De Santo Agostinho — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. The road network BR-101, BR-230 and BR-104, with BR-101 (via PE) as the main axis, defines response time for critical-part shipments and technical visits to Areia. FB Bombas technical service in Areia covers centrifugal- and gear-pump sizing, commissioning support, assisted startup and operator training — a scope that spans the full technical-supply cycle. Areia requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. Areia, Paraíba is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 years of continuous operation. For the local industry industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series with CRCC Petrobras qualification, API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization (API 610 engineered-to-order projects) — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed.
Areia is served with a logistics lead time of 96h to 7 days for critical parts from Cabreúva-SP, subject to case-by-case optimization. For óleos industriais and água industrial in Areia, the baseline is AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere — FB engineering tunes from immersion tests, field history and iron/stainless/duplex compatibility within the local fluid classes. Areia: transferência geral and utilidades. This application mix is covered by the recommended FB series, with case-by-case fine tuning. Areia, near a portuario cluster, deals with bunker fuel oil (BPF), seawater for cooling and liquid bulk movement — a technical agenda well known to FB application engineering. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Areia, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime.
A GDP of R$ 356 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (29.8% of value added in 2021) places Areia's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. Observed seasonal pattern: continuous flow with seasonality tied to agricultural harvests (bulk) and fuel supply. Areia follows the same rhythm as the nearby portuario cluster. Demand in Areia is characterized by medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. Areia: óleos industriais and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge: this is the typical application set around the portuario cluster in which Areia sits. Being among the 50 most populous cities in PB, maintains a relevant industrial base, Areia presents volume and application diversity that justify FB Bombas' structured service. For Areia, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering.
2190 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Areia via BR-101 (via PE) — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. Alternative routing to Areia 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 Areia is structured as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip. The factory-to-Areia 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.
FB Bombas serves Areia and neighboring municipalities with the same technical team — optimized visits and supply in joint campaigns.
The schedule is set by three factors: chosen series, construction materials and stock at order time. Standard configurations ship faster; custom ones receive a firm date in the technical proposal. Delivery to Areia is by road, shipping directly from the factory.
Yes. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is executed on the factory bench in Cabreúva/SP, with hydraulic test, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration — witnessed by customer inspection when specified. For projects in Areia, the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) is supported by application engineering during commissioning, with startup checklist, laser alignment and baseline vibration-signature capture.
Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Areia, 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.
Coverage against manufacturing defects accompanies the supply of FB pumps — the full terms appear in the commercial proposal. It holds as long as installation, operation and maintenance follow what the manual specifies and the sizing performed by engineering. Our technical team clarifies the specific conditions of your project in Areia.
The portfolio covers four in-house series: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for low-pulsation services, FBCN (standardized centrifugal) for water and light fluids and FBOT (dedicated centrifugal) for thermal oil — plus complete fire-fighting systems per NFPA 20 and NBR 16704.
Yes. Existing installations can undergo retrofit with FB Bombas — the scope covers seal upgrades, swapping worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance gains. A technical report on the current installation serves as the basis for the assessment.
Since 1944 — over 82 years of continuous experience manufacturing industrial pumps. In Cabreúva/SP, the factory brings engineering, manufacturing and testing together under one roof, which assures total quality control on each unit shipped to Areia and all across Brazil.
Three paths lead to a quote: the website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 and the email comercial@fbbombas.com.br. With the application data in hand (fluid, flow, pressure, temperature), the technical team returns a proposal already sized for your scenario in Areia.
When there is a plant shutdown in Areia, FB Bombas triggers an emergency flow dedicated to critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings): the order gets pre-invoicing, dispatch is prioritized and the modal can change — express road or air, decided by distance and criticality. The region defines the typical lead time, with a window negotiable for each case. For those with an installed base and scheduled PM, there is the option of consigning part of the stock at the plant.
Maximum temperature depends on the series: FBE and FBEI operate up to 350°C with heating jacket and special sealing; FBOT operates up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN operates up to 260°C with proper materials and sealing. Correct sizing of sealing and materials is essential for safe operation.
