Technical summary
The FBE gear-pump line is specified in Guapimirim, Rio de Janeiro for turismo — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (434 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


FB Bombas maintains an installed base in Guapimirim with a structure of spare parts (impeller, shaft, wear ring, cartridge mechanical seal, bearings) and scheduled preventive maintenance, with direct supply from the Cabreúva-SP factory. FB Bombas maintains in Guapimirim the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 676 + ASME B73.1 (API 610 on engineered-to-order projects) — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. The IBGE classification places Guapimirim in the Metropolitana do Rio de Janeiro mesoregion — an area whose industrial profile directly influences demand for rotating equipment. The road network BR-116, BR-101 and BR-040, with BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra as the main axis, defines response time for critical-part shipments and technical visits to Guapimirim. In Guapimirim, Turismo and Agricultura concentrate the largest share of demand for rotating equipment — a technical agenda well known to the FB application team, with proposals sized against the actual system curve. In Guapimirim, Rio de Janeiro, FB Bombas serves turismo 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 petrochemical cluster of Itaborai is 27 km from Guapimirim, generating economic spillover and correlated technical demand — common in pumping projects involving both cities. Service to Guapimirim is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra (434 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.

Gear pump selection for Guapimirim starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of água. With that data, engineering defines speed (flow is proportional), bushing materials and the thermal arrangement: jacketed body for cold starts and a seal compatible with the hot fluid. Compliance with API 676 for positive displacement and — on critical services, via engineered-to-order projects — API 610 for centrifugal, the typical downstream Oil & Gas package is part of the default scope for FB series recommended for Guapimirim, with traceable test and materials documentation. Guapimirim is served with a logistics lead time of 48-72h for critical parts from Cabreúva-SP, subject to case-by-case optimization. The technical profile of the petroquimico cluster near Guapimirim involves fluids with variable viscosity, vapor presence, light hydrocarbons and the need for dual cartridge seals — information that guides preliminary sizing of FB series.
Guapimirim: low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Guapimirim: by affinity to the petroquimico cluster, continuous operation with triennial outages (TPM) — moments of concentrated demand for retrofitted equipment — a variable that enters commercial planning. By IBGE's breakdown, Guapimirim adds up a GDP of R$ 1.6 billion (2023) with industrial share of 18% in value added (2021) — a market where FB serves from process circuits to water and HVAC infrastructure. The FBFS line serves Guapimirim with fire-protection systems compliant with NFPA 20, NBR 16704 and NBR 10897, in electric, diesel and hybrid configurations. Being among the 50 most populous cities in RJ, maintains a relevant industrial base, Guapimirim presents volume and application diversity that justify FB Bombas' structured service. cracking, hydrocarbon transfer, fractionation tower recirculation and oily-water pumping: this is the typical application set around the petroquimico cluster in which Guapimirim sits. Guapimirim has turismo as its main industrial-pump application front — from primary transfer to internal circulation in process equipment.
For Guapimirim, 24-48h via federal highways is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand. Cabreúva-SP → Guapimirim via BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra (434 km): a corridor with regular FB freight history, supporting indivisible loads and sets with escort when the gauge demands. The BR-116, BR-101 and BR-040 mesh provides logistics redundancy for Guapimirim — when one route is restricted (rains, construction, accidents), delivery is rerouted without compromising the critical lead time. For Guapimirim, FB dispatch is preceded by: hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run with curve points, G2.5 dynamic balancing and Data Book closure — all traceable by serial number.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Guapimirim — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
They are. For each delivery to Guapimirim, FB Bombas assembles the unit's complete technical Data Book, containing: hydraulic test certificate, material certificates — stainless steel, duplex or ductile cast iron, per spec —, ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing report, characteristic curve obtained on the bench, API 682 mechanical-seal data sheets, operation and maintenance manual and as-built drawings. Full traceability happens through the serial number.
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.
Yes. The design of the FBE and FBCN lines favors direct access to wear-prone components — disassembly and inspection are done with conventional tools. The routine gets even simpler with detailed technical manuals and replacement parts supplied straight from the factory.
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 Guapimirim, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
Three paths lead to a quote: the website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 and the email comercial@fbbombas.com.br. With the application data in hand (fluid, flow, pressure, temperature), the technical team returns a proposal already sized for your scenario in Guapimirim.
It does. The technical support and logistics covering Guapimirim are the same applied to the metropolitan region and nearby microregions. That operating radius enables coordinated service to industrial plants distributed across several cities.
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 Guapimirim.
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.
A technical quote for Guapimirim starts with the application briefing, sent via website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 or email comercial@fbbombas.com.br. Required items: fluid name with viscosity at operating temperature, target flow (m³/h), discharge head (m), available NPSH, operating temperature and whether the regime is continuous or intermittent. Once the analysis is complete, application engineering replies bringing a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time.
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.
