Gear pump selection for Itaboraí starts with viscosity at the real pumping temperature — not the 40 °C catalog figure — the typical case of CAP, óleos pesados e produtos intermediários. 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. The refino cluster near Itaboraí brings a technical agenda of crude oil, derivatives, high temperature (up to 260°C in FBCN, 350°C in FBOT) and API 610 requirements met via engineered-to-order projects — a reference FB Bombas uses as a benchmark for initial sizing and series selection. For derivados de petróleo, asfalto CAP and óleos pesados, the materials recommendation in Itaboraí converges on AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere, a starting point adjustable based on field-observed corrosion. dual cartridge mechanical seal (API 682 Plan 53A/53B) for hazardous or high-temperature fluids is the initial sealing configuration for Itaboraí; secondary-plan adjustments and dual cartridges are considered based on fluid criticality and environmental requirement. In Itaboraí, FBCN centrifugal pumps with flow up to 2,200 m³/h, head up to 135 m and temperature up to 260°C (thermal oil via FBOT up to 350°C) — this range covers most of the Q×H diagram operated in the field; off-envelope points are handled with custom selection (trimmed impeller, larger motor, double-suction when applicable). For the technical profile observed in Itaboraí, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBE+FBEI and FBCN+FBOT as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature. Typical applications mapped for Itaboraí include transferência de CAP, circulação de produtos intermediários, resfriamento de reatores and aquecimento de tanques — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. 100% of pumps bound for Itaboraí pass through the Cabreúva-SP hydraulic bench — acceptance testing with multi-point curve readings and G2.5 dynamic balancing.
Technically, Itaboraí shows high complexity in its fluid mix — diversified fluid roster — requires a broad catalogue of materials and sealing configurations. A GDP of R$ 6.3 billion (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (48.6% of value added in 2021) places Itaboraí's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. Itaboraí: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. Observed seasonal pattern: scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain. Itaboraí follows the same rhythm as the nearby refino cluster. Logistics-commercial aspect: balanced logistics — freight is a contained fraction of equipment cost. Itaboraí: belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state, a structural variable in the commercial offer. The fluid catalogue in Itaboraí (derivados de petróleo, asfalto CAP and óleos pesados) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Use cases in Itaboraí (series FBE+FBEI for transferência de CAP and circulação de produtos intermediários and series FBCN+FBOT for resfriamento de reatores and aquecimento de tanques) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region. Given its state-level scale (among the 50 most populous cities in RJ, maintains a relevant industrial base), Itaboraí concentrates projects of varying complexity — making room for both standardized ASME B73.1 solutions and engineered-to-order. In Itaboraí, FBFS fire-protection projects serve industrial buildings, commercial spaces and logistics warehouses with approval for state Fire Department and insurers. petroquímica plants in Itaboraí sustain a continuous pipeline of technical demand — from scheduled replacement to ASME B73.1 dimensional retrofit replacing imported equipment. Itaboraí shares an industrial axis with nearby municipalities — a setting that enables structured supply and scheduled regional service. The refino cluster around Itaboraí concentrates applications crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history.
Logistics lead time to Itaboraí is 24-48h via federal highways — variable with cargo type, season and specific optimizations. The technical-service model in Itaboraí is structured as planned technical visits with 1-2 day mobilization window — direct coordination with the customer. Alternative routing to Itaboraí can use BR-116, BR-101 and BR-040, which helps in heavy-traffic situations or maintenance on specific roads. 443 km separate the Cabreúva-SP factory from Itaboraí via BR-116 Rodovia Presidente Dutra — an axis sized for movement of pumps, skids and pump-and-motor sets. Consignment stock of critical items is a common approach in Itaboraí, especially for sets running 24/7 or with concentrated PM windows. Equipment with above-conventional gauge bound for Itaboraí is moved by road modal with dedicated route planning. The factory-to-Itaboraí logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.

Regional service from Itaboraí — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Active CRCC at Petrobras and compliance with API 676 (FBE series) and ASME B73.1 (FBCN series) qualify FB Bombas to supply refineries and petrochemical plants, including applications in classified areas and hazardous fluids. Factory engineering sizes sealing arrangements and materials according to each specification.
It depends on the configuration: standard-arrangement pumps have shorter lead times, while special constructions follow the schedule stated in the technical proposal. The deciding factor is the combination of series, materials and stock availability — and transport to Itaboraí goes through our regular road operator.
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.
ISO 21940 G2.5 is the grade applied to the rotating set of FB Bombas pumps — direct equivalence with what API 610 asks for heavy-duty service. Critical projects in Itaboraí depend on this standard: continuous-regime operation, online vibration monitoring at the plant or high cost tied to unplanned downtime. When rotation exceeds 3,600 RPM or rotating mass goes over 50 kg, two-plane balancing is executed using a piezoelectric sensor.
Yes. Since FB Bombas manufactures entirely in Cabreúva/SP, replacement parts for the FBE, FBEI, FBCN and FBOT series are available directly from the factory, with short lead times for scheduled stops and priority service for emergencies. This significantly reduces total cost of ownership.
FB Bombas' trajectory as an industrial pump manufacturer began in 1944 and adds up to over 82 years of continuous experience.
