Technical summary
The FBCN (normalized centrifugal) line is specified in Tacaimbó, Pernambuco for local industry — head up to 135 m, temperature up to 260°C. ASME B73.1, in-house manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP (2029 km).


The road network BR-101, BR-232 and BR-116, with BR-101 (via AL) as the main axis, defines response time for critical-part shipments and technical visits to Tacaimbó. In Tacaimbó, 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). In Tacaimbó, 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). The city sits within the IBGE mesoregion Agreste Pernambucano, a regional grouping of municipalities with similar economic and logistics profiles — useful for comparative analysis and technical-visit routing. Just 137 km separate Tacaimbó from the port cluster of Ipojuca — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. FB Bombas application engineering serves Tacaimbó with custom technical sizing: system characteristic curve, available NPSH, in-service viscosity and mechanical-seal strategy (API Plan 11, 13, 52 or 53 by criticality). Service to Tacaimbó is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-101 (via AL) (2029 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.

Lead time for critical parts to Tacaimbó is typically 96h to 7 days — a function of distance (2029 km) and the available road modal. In Tacaimbó, materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion answer the requirements of óleos industriais and água industrial — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). Tacaimbó 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. FBCN sizing for the Tacaimbó circuit checks three points on the curve: the operating point (near BEP), available NPSH with margin over required — critical with hot fluid or suction lift — and end-of-curve power, which protects the motor against overload in off-design operation.
Demand in Tacaimbó is characterized by medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline, a typical regional pattern of the mesoregion. Technically, Tacaimbó shows low complexity in its fluid mix — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. A GDP of R$ 222 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (26.4% of value added in 2021) places Tacaimbó's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. Typical fluids handled in Tacaimbó (óleos industriais and água industrial) require careful selection of seal and coating materials — a central variable in pump sizing. Typical use cases identified for Tacaimbó: series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades. The portuario cluster near Tacaimbó 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.
2029 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Tacaimbó via BR-101 (via AL) — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. Logistics lead time to Tacaimbó is 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. The technical-service model in Tacaimbó is structured as technical visits planned as a mission — concentrated agenda to cover multiple plants in a single trip.

Regional service from Tacaimbó — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
The FB portfolio handles an extensive spectrum of fluids. The FBE series takes mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins plus viscous chemical and hydraulic products; the FBCN series works with raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents; the FBOT series is dedicated to thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Each case is sized considering viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
The advantages are concrete: faster delivery because nothing depends on imports; FB engineering providing direct technical support; spares secured by in-house parts manufacturing; local-currency pricing, free from exchange rate exposure; and physical presence on projects in Tacaimbó and surrounding areas. All from a company manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
It is. From the data of the pump in operation (flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature), FB Bombas' application engineering proposes a technical equivalence — dimensional or functional — with one of our series. This replacement has already been done by many clients in Tacaimbó, with benefits in lead time, cost and local support.
They do. In the FBE and FBCN lines, wear-affected components sit in easily accessible positions, so conventional tools suffice for disassembly and inspection. Add detailed technical manuals and factory-direct availability of replacement parts — and maintenance becomes an uncomplicated routine.

Four families are manufactured in Cabreúva/SP: external gear FBE and internal gear FBEI for viscous fluids, standardized centrifugal FBCN for low-viscosity liquids and FBOT for thermal oil circuits up to 350 °C. Fire-fighting systems per NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 complete the line.
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.
Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Tacaimbó. 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.
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 Tacaimbó.
Yes. In addition to the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops custom solutions for special applications, including modifications in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Special projects go through engineering before manufacturing.
