Technical summary
The FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Tacaratu, Pernambuco for local industry — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (1847 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


Typical fluids in Tacaratu's industrial operations include óleos industriais and água industrial — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series. For Tacaratu, FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing baseplates — FBCN centrifugal pumps follow ASME B73.1 normalization, dimensionally interchangeable with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds and other global manufacturers already installed in the plant. FB Bombas pumps installed in Tacaratu, Pernambuco meet CRCC Petrobras certification, API 610 (centrifugal) and API 676 (gear) compliance — credentials FB has sustained as a Brazilian manufacturer since 1944. In Tacaratu, 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 API 610 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting). The BR-101 (via AL) corridor combined with highways BR-101, BR-232 and BR-116 composes the freight mesh to Tacaratu — a cost variable in pricing skids, pump-motor sets and indivisible cargo with escort. Through 273-km proximity to the sugar-and-ethanol cluster of Maceio, Tacaratu inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. Service to Tacaratu is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-101 (via AL) (1847 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.

For óleos industriais and água industrial in Tacaratu, the baseline is austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion — FB engineering tunes from immersion tests, field history and iron/stainless/duplex compatibility within the local fluid classes. The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Tacaratu; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. For the technical profile observed in Tacaratu, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBEI and FBCN as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature. The pump-and-motor set shipped to Tacaratu undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
Tacaratu: low fluid complexity, lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Tacaratu: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Tacaratu: by affinity to the sucroalcooleiro cluster, concentrated harvest season (Apr-Nov) creates short maintenance windows and intense parts demand during milling — a variable that enters commercial planning. Tacaratu: óleos industriais and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy. For Tacaratu, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering. juice circulation, molasses transfer, vinasse boost and thermal oil for evaporators: this is the typical application set around the sucroalcooleiro cluster in which Tacaratu sits.
Tacaratu receives equipment within 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory. Cabreúva-SP to Tacaratu: 1847 km via BR-101 (via AL), a consolidated corridor with carriers qualified by FB Bombas for heavy-equipment cargo. Before shipment to Tacaratu, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.

Regional service from Tacaratu — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
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 Tacaratu.
Yes. The FBCN series follows ASME B73.1 normalization (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps) — which makes the pump-and-motor set interchangeable with global manufacturers (KSB, Sulzer, Goulds, Flowserve) already installed in plants in Tacaratu. For retrofits, the existing baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations are usually preserved; what changes is the rotating set. FB application engineering performs the dimensional gap analysis prior to supply.
Yes. FB Bombas serves Tacaratu and the entire surrounding region with supply, technical support and replacement parts directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP. Support includes sizing at no cost and, for critical projects, on-site technical visits.
Yes. FB Bombas manufactures pumps for stationary fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and ABNT NBR 16704 standards, serving building and industrial projects that require these certifications.
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 Tacaratu and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
