FBE Gear Pumps in Pedro Velho

Pedro Velho requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection. Pedro Velho is served by the BR-101 (via PB) axis and also by highways BR-101, BR-226 and BR-304 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. Just 206 km separate Pedro Velho from the port cluster of Cabo De Santo Agostinho — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. In Pedro Velho, Rio Grande do Norte, 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). For projects in Pedro Velho that demand formal technical qualification, FB Bombas series cover API 610 (FBCN), API 676 (FBE/FBEI), NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 (FBFS systems) — a combination that removes the need for additional suppliers across fire-fighting and process scope. Industrial plants in Pedro Velho rely on FB Bombas spares held in scheduled stock: semi-open and open impellers, wear rings in various materials, dual cartridge seals API 682 Plan 53 and SKF/FAG bearings per the original spec. FB Bombas application engineering owns technical specification in Pedro Velho — 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 serves Pedro Velho from its Cabreúva-SP factory, with transport via BR-101 (via PB) and application-engineering support for dimensioning according to the actual operation profile.

Technical solutions

Typical applications mapped for Pedro Velho include transferência geral and utilidades — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. Pedro Velho: single cartridge mechanical seal (Plan 11/13) for general service, upgradable to dual when the fluid requires secondary containment — a configuration FB Bombas uses as initial reference; refinement depends on risk class and applicable environmental regulation. In Pedro Velho, materials such as AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere answer the requirements of óleos industriais and água industrial — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Pedro Velho, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. For Pedro Velho, the FB protocol includes hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — all documented in the Data Book.

Why FB Bombas

Fluid-roster complexity in Pedro Velho is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. The demand profile in Pedro Velho reflects low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume. Pedro Velho belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state — a feature that enters the sizing of the service strategy. In Pedro Velho, 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). In Pedro Velho, near a portuario cluster, applications such as bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. Pedro Velho 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. Pedro Velho, among the 50 most populous cities in RN, maintains a relevant industrial base, sustains a predictable B2B demand chain — an ideal profile for scheduled supply and multi-year replacement contracts.

Logistics & support

Typical transit time to Pedro Velho: 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Pedro Velho is BR-101 (via PB), totaling 2268 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Beyond the main route, Pedro Velho is accessible via BR-101, BR-226 and BR-304 — options that provide redundancy in case of blockages or restricted operating windows. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Pedro Velho occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.
