Technical summary
For viscous fluids in local industry (Cordeiro, Rio de Janeiro), FB application engineering recommends FBEI as a starting point. API 676 compliance, vertically integrated manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP, 48-72h lead time.


In Cordeiro, 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). Through 94-km proximity to the petrochemical cluster of Itaborai, Cordeiro inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. FB Bombas application engineering owns technical specification in Cordeiro — from customer data sheet to the final Data Book delivered with the pump, through application review, FAT on the hydraulic bench and on-site SAT support. FB Bombas pumps installed in Cordeiro, Rio de Janeiro meet CRCC Petrobras qualification, ASME B73.1 (centrifugal) and API 676 (gear) compliance — credentials FB has sustained as a Brazilian manufacturer since 1944. Under the IBGE Centro Fluminense mesoregion grouping, Cordeiro shares per-capita GDP, workforce profile and environmental-licensing patterns with adjacent cities — macroeconomic variables that reinforce predictability of local B2B demand. Cordeiro, Rio de Janeiro is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 years of continuous operation. For the local industry industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series with CRCC Petrobras qualification, API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization (API 610 engineered-to-order projects) — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed. Road access runs via BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra, with branches through BR-116, BR-101 and BR-040 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service.

What defines the FBE external gear pump in Cordeiro 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. For óleos industriais and água industrial in Cordeiro, the baseline is AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere — FB engineering tunes from immersion tests, field history and iron/stainless/duplex compatibility within the local fluid classes. Cordeiro: transferência geral and utilidades. This application mix is covered by the recommended FB series, with case-by-case fine tuning. Technical fit in Cordeiro points to FBEI and FBCN as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. 100% of pumps bound for Cordeiro pass through the Cabreúva-SP hydraulic bench — acceptance testing with multi-point curve readings and G2.5 dynamic balancing.
Fluid-roster complexity in Cordeiro is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. A GDP of R$ 531 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (40.8% of value added in 2021) places Cordeiro's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. The demand profile in Cordeiro reflects medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline. In Cordeiro, óleos industriais and água industrial form the typical fluid set — guiding both series selection (gear, centrifugal, thermal oil) and constructive detail (closed/open/semi-open impeller). Cordeiro shows cases like series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a package FB Bombas addresses with real-curve sizing, material recommendation and dimensioned seal configuration. In Cordeiro, near a petroquimico cluster, applications such as cracking, hydrocarbon transfer, fractionation tower recirculation and oily-water pumping make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. For Cordeiro, the FBFS line offers a complete fire-protection package: main pump, jockey, control panel NFPA 20 and diesel fuel tank — scope per NFPA 20.
Logistics lead time to Cordeiro is 24-48h via federal highways — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. 510 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Cordeiro via BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. Alternative routing to Cordeiro can use BR-116, BR-101 and BR-040, which helps in heavy-traffic situations or maintenance on specific roads. The factory-to-Cordeiro logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Cordeiro — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
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.
They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Cordeiro eligible for the BNDES Finame lines — Industrial Working Capital, Modernization and Capital Goods —, which offer preferential conditions for national industry. The product's FINAME code is provided by the commercial team on the technical proposal, ready to compose the customer's financial plan.
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.
It does. FB Bombas' retrofit service for existing installations encompasses updated seals, replaced worn components, adjustment to new fluids and improved hydraulic performance. To evaluate each case, the reference is the technical report on the current installation.
Yes — the standard catalog is only the starting point. For special applications, FB Bombas engineers custom solutions: changes in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Before manufacturing, every special project is validated by engineering.
Who serves Cordeiro is the FB Bombas factory team itself in Cabreúva/SP. In practice: direct access to application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation returned within 3-5 business days and original parts supplied at factory pricing. Depending on project criticality, on-site technical visits to Cordeiro are added to the plan.
Yes, provided the dimension designation coincides. By following ASME B73.1 — the North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps — the FBCN occupies the standardised installation envelope defined by the norm, which does not depend on who built the pump running in Cordeiro plants. What is supplied is the complete pump: baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations usually remain. FB application engineering runs the dimensional gap analysis before supply, covering flow, head and required NPSH as well.
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 Cordeiro and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
It offers both. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) takes place on the Cabreúva/SP bench and covers hydraulic testing, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration; when the customer specifies, inspection witnesses the tests. In the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) of Cordeiro projects, application engineering supports commissioning with startup checklist, laser alignment and capture of the baseline vibration signature.
