Technical solutions

In viscous fluid services in Armação dos Búzios, the FBE works where centrifugals lose efficiency: gear volumetric efficiency improves with viscosity, covering up to 100,000 SSU and 350 °C with a heating jacket — the typical case of água. The design counterpart is mandatory — a discharge line protected by a relief valve, because positive displacement does not tolerate blockage. Recommended FB series meet API 676 for positive displacement and — on critical services, via engineered-to-order projects — API 610 for centrifugal, the typical downstream Oil & Gas package, ensuring interchangeability and test traceability for operations in Armação dos Búzios. Technical-and-commercial support for Armação dos Búzios is covered from Cabreúva-SP, with typical lead time for critical parts of 48-72h via dedicated carrier. In Armação dos Búzios, influence from the petroquimico cluster translates into fluids with variable viscosity, vapor presence, light hydrocarbons and the need for dual cartridge seals — variables that enter both preliminary sizing and the selection of materials and constructive configurations.

Why FB Bombas

The demand profile in Armação dos Búzios reflects medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline. IBGE figures size the local market: GDP of R$ 5 billion in 2023, with 41.6% of value added coming from industry (2021) — in Armação dos Búzios, pumping is a production input, not an accessory.

Is FB Bombas a national alternative to imported manufacturers in Armação dos Búzios?

Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Armação dos Búzios, 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.

Does FB Bombas support ISO 10816 vibration analysis for predictive maintenance in Armação dos Búzios?

Yes. On pumps installed in Armação dos Búzios, FB Bombas application engineering applies ISO 10816 (velocity RMS in mm/s) to diagnose misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation. The scope covers baseline captured at startup, spectral comparison throughout PM campaigns and recommendation of interventions — re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment — before the machine reaches the standard's zone D.

What types of fluids can FB pumps handle?

Three fluid fronts are covered by the FB series. FBE: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products. FBCN: raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents. FBOT: thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility guide the sizing of every application.

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

Yes. The process starts with FB Bombas' application engineering, which studies the installed pump's specifications — flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature — and indicates the dimensional or functional technical equivalence within our series. In Armação dos Búzios, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.

What is the balancing grade of FB pumps for critical projects in Armação dos Búzios?

FB Bombas' rotating set balancing follows ISO 21940 G2.5 — a grade equivalent to the API 610 requirement for heavy-duty service. It is the level demanded in critical Armação dos Búzios projects: continuous regime, plants with online vibration monitoring or operations where unplanned downtime is expensive. Above 3,600 RPM or with rotating mass beyond 50 kg, balancing is done on two planes, with a piezoelectric sensor.

Does FB Bombas serve fire protection systems?

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.

What type of mechanical seal do FB pumps use?

Mechanical seal configuration is defined by engineering according to the fluid, temperature and operating pressure. Options include single seals, double seals (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge seals and packing glands for specific applications. For hazardous fluids, double seals with barrier are recommended.
