Information for your project

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

Initial guidance

For projects in Ipojuca, Pernambuco, 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 Ipojuca, 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.

Describe your plant activity and the pump’s role in the process: transfer, circulation or feed. The team combines this information with fluid and installation data to guide the review of product families.

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 Ipojuca, 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 Ipojuca 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.

In the request for Ipojuca, describe the fluid source and destination, operating duty and installation constraints. If a pump is already in use, its model and identification complement process data; they do not replace checking current conditions.

If the project in Ipojuca 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$ 18 billion for Ipojuca in 2023. In the 2021 gross value added breakdown, industry accounts for approximately 60.6% and agriculture for approximately 1.6%. 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 Ipojuca, 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 Ipojuca 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 Ipojuca, 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 2,080 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 Ipojuca 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 Ipojuca, confirm the approved configuration, contracted documentation and delivery details with the sales team.

Questions about our service

Information to help you prepare your inquiry to FB Bombas.

What care do pumps need in a port environment like Ipojuca?

Care starts with choosing materials and coating for the equipment’s actual exposure and for the fluid. For the FBE, the catalogue lists casing and covers in ASTM A48 CL30 cast iron, ASTM A536 ductile iron, ASTM A216 WCB carbon steel or ASTM A743 CF8M stainless steel; for the FBCN, the manual presents casings in cast iron, A216 WCB carbon steel and A743 CF8M stainless steel. Describe the exposure in Ipojuca, the project coating requirements and the fluid composition; engineering defines the configuration and documentation.

Does FB Bombas serve fire protection systems?

The portfolio includes pumping sets for fire protection systems. Provide the project, duty point, drive arrangement and required standards and acceptance criteria. Compliance must be checked for the supplied set; standards such as NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 are not certificates issued for the entire company.

Up to what temperature can FB pumps operate?

It depends on the series. The published limits are up to 260 °C for the FBCN, 350 °C for the FBOT, 340 °C for the FBEI and 140 °C for the FBME. For the FBE, the 2026 catalogue gives a range of 10 °C to 500 °C; the limit of each configuration depends on materials and sealing. These are series limits: they do not automatically apply to every model, nor do they necessarily occur together with the other maximums. State the start-up, operating and cleaning temperatures of the process in Ipojuca.

Is it possible to replace an imported pump with an FB Bombas pump?

Yes, once equivalence has been confirmed. FB Bombas replaces the installed pump with a complete FB pump and, before the order, assesses the installation and sends a data sheet and dimensional drawing. For the installation in Ipojuca, send the identification and drawing of the current pump, with its duty point, fluid, materials and drive; origin or a similar designation does not guarantee direct replacement.

How can pump delivery to Ipojuca be planned?

The proposal should define availability, dispatch, transport, packaging and responsibilities for delivery to Ipojuca. State access, unloading and receiving restrictions. Route, mode and timing are confirmed for the supply; a reference distance is not a road route or delivery time.

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 Ipojuca, check the series manual, the sectional drawing and the parts list.

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 Ipojuca, compare the absorbed power at the process flow, head and fluid, also considering drive, control and operating duty.

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

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

Which pump does FB recommend for water and utilities in Ipojuca?

The FBCN, a standardized centrifugal pump for clean or turbid liquids, with a series range of up to 2,200 m³/h and 135 m; when a higher head is required, the multistage FBME reaches 300 m. Each model has its own limits in the manual tables. For the project in Ipojuca, state the fluid and the flow and head duty point; selection checks the model curve, suction conditions, materials, drive and installation interfaces.

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

FB Bombas serves projects in Ipojuca 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.
