FBCN Centrifugal Pumps in Umuarama

Limits vary by series. FBE and FBEI: up to 350°C, provided a heating jacket and special sealing are used. FBOT: up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits. FBCN: up to 260°C, with materials and sealing suited to the service. Well-sized sealing and materials are a condition for safe operation in these ranges.

It does. The technical support and logistics covering Umuarama are the same applied to the metropolitan region and nearby microregions. That operating radius enables coordinated service to industrial plants distributed across several cities.

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

Sizing is performed by FB Bombas’ application engineering team based on four key variables: desired flow, differential pressure, working temperature and fluid viscosity. Additional data such as available NPSH, operating cycle and fluid chemical compatibility are also considered. The service is free of charge for customers in Umuarama.

Yes. FB Bombas’ application engineering analyzes the installed pump specifications (flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature) and proposes dimensional or functional technical equivalence with one of our series. Many clients in Umuarama have already made this replacement with gains in lead time, cost and local support.

When there is a plant shutdown in Umuarama, 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.

They are. In energy consumption, nothing weighs more than sizing correctly: oversized or undersized pumps generate waste. FB Bombas engineering's job is to define the ideal operating point for the actual process conditions in Umuarama, optimizing flow, pressure and power together.

It does. When a special application demands something beyond the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops the solution: modified construction materials, specific sealing arrangements, system-integrated heating, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Engineering reviews each special project as a step prior to manufacturing.

It depends on the configuration: standard-arrangement pumps have shorter lead times, while special constructions follow the schedule stated in the technical proposal. The deciding factor is the combination of series, materials and stock availability — and transport to Umuarama goes through our regular road operator.
