FBCN Centrifugal Pumps in Coronel Vivida

FB Bombas manufactures four 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.

FB Bombas' trajectory as an industrial pump manufacturer began in 1944 and adds up to over 82 years of continuous experience. Engineering, manufacturing and testing operate under one roof at the Cabreúva/SP factory — a guarantee of total quality control on every unit that reaches Coronel Vivida and the rest of Brazil.

In Coronel Vivida, service comes directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP, through the FB Bombas team. The customer speaks with application engineering for sizing, receives the complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and buys original parts at factory pricing. When project criticality warrants it, on-site technical visits to Coronel Vivida are scheduled.

Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Coronel Vivida with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.

Yes. FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing installations, including seal upgrades, replacement of worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance improvement. The assessment is based on a technical report of the current installation.

They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Coronel Vivida eligible for the BNDES Finame lines — Industrial Working Capital, Modernization and Capital Goods —, which offer preferential conditions for national industry. The product's FINAME code is provided by the commercial team on the technical proposal, ready to compose the customer's financial plan.

Yes. FB Bombas application engineering supports ISO 10816 vibration analysis (velocity RMS in mm/s) for diagnosing misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation on pumps installed in Coronel Vivida. The service includes baseline capture at startup, spectral comparison during PM campaigns, and intervention recommendations (re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment) before vibration exceeds the standard’s zone D.

It directly affects viscous fluids: viscosity at winter cold start can be several times higher than at operation, raising the torque demanded from the motor. For oils, asphalt and resins, engineering evaluates a heating jacket and sizes the drive for the most severe condition — not the average.

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Coronel Vivida. 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.

Three fluid fronts are covered by the FB series. FBE: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products. FBCN: raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents. FBOT: thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility guide the sizing of every application.
