Technical summary
For viscous fluids in local industry (Poção, Pernambuco), FB application engineering recommends FBEI as a starting point. API 676 compliance, vertically integrated manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP, 96h to 7 days lead time.


From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 2015 km via BR-101 (via AL), FB Bombas reaches Poção with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects. In Poção, FB Bombas serves projects with in-house application engineering: system-curve analysis, NPSH balance (available vs required), series selection (FBE / FBCN / FBOT / FBEI / FBFS) and API 682 sealing plan. In Poção, Pernambuco, FB Bombas serves local industry projects with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series — dedicated application engineering for sizing against the actual system curve, CRCC Petrobras certification and technical compliance with ASME B73.1 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting). Poção is served by the BR-101 (via AL) axis and also by highways BR-101, BR-232 and BR-116 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. Only 183 km from the port cluster of Ipojuca, Poção benefits from logistics spillover and movement of technical professionals — FB Bombas has a service track record in the region. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in PE qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Poção in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE (API 676) and FBCN (ASME B73.1) series and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. In Poção, óleos industriais and água industrial make up the fluid portfolio served by local plants — each with its own requirements on available NPSH, in-service viscosity and sealing strategy (Plan 11/13/52/53 by criticality).

For Poção, the FB protocol includes hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — all documented in the Data Book. In Poção, influence from the portuario cluster translates into bunker fuel oil (BPF), seawater for cooling and liquid bulk movement — variables that enter both preliminary sizing and the selection of materials and constructive configurations. Poção typically calls for FBEI and FBCN — an initial recommendation based on local productFit, dominant industrial cluster and identified fluid profile; final technical approval is refined by application engineering. What defines the FBE external gear pump in Poção is its behavior under variable pressure: being positive displacement, flow follows speed and practically ignores backpressure swings in the line — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. Two installation requirements follow from this physics: a sized relief valve on the discharge and, for fluids that harden when cold, a heating jacket on the pump body.
The low fluid-complexity profile in Poção (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. Poção shows a medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). In Poção, value added is dominated by services (29.4%, IBGE 2021), with a 2023 GDP of R$ 133 million — a profile where pumping demand concentrates on building infrastructure, sanitation, HVAC and utilities, FBCN centrifugal territory. Typical fluids handled in Poção (óleos industriais and água industrial) require careful selection of seal and coating materials — a central variable in pump sizing. Typical use cases identified for Poção: series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades. The portuario cluster near Poção 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.
72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season: this is the typical delivery interval Cabreúva-SP → Poção, based on a consolidated road route and FB-qualified logistics operators. The BR-101 (via AL) corridor (2015 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Poção — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. The factory-to-Poção dispatch includes technical packaging (impact protection, moisture sealing), multilingual documentation (PT/EN/ES when required) and approved-carrier tracking.

Yes. Correct sizing is the main lever for energy efficiency — an oversized or undersized pump wastes energy. FB Bombas engineering calculates the optimal operating point considering the actual process conditions in Poção, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.

After reviewing the briefing, application engineering returns a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time for your project in Poção.
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 Poção.
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.
Each series has its thermal limit: with heating jacket and special sealing, FBE and FBEI reach 350°C; FBOT hits the same 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN goes up to 260°C when fitted with proper materials and sealing. Safe operation requires correctly sized sealing and materials.
Yes. The FBE and FBCN lines were designed with easy access to wear-prone components, allowing disassembly and inspection with conventional tools. Detailed technical manuals and direct factory replacement parts availability simplify maintenance routines.
Shorter delivery times (no import dependency), direct technical support from FB engineering, replacement parts with in-house manufacturing, prices in local currency (no exchange rate exposure) and on-site service for projects in Poção and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Poção, 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.
It depends on the service: fluid, temperature and operating pressure determine the configuration, which engineering defines. Available options are single seal, double seal (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge version and, in specific applications, packing glands. Hazardous fluids call for a double seal with barrier — that is the recommended option.
Yes. For stationary fire protection systems, FB Bombas produces pumps compliant with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and with ABNT's NBR 16704 — covering building and industrial projects that demand these certifications.
