Technical summary
The FBCN (normalized centrifugal) line is specified in Estância Velha, Rio Grande do Sul for local industry — head up to 138 m, temperature up to 260°C. API 610, in-house manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP (813 km).


Estância Velha is served by the BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC) axis and also by highways BR-116, BR-290 and BR-101 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. The óleos industriais and água industrial profile observed in Estância Velha maps to a precise set of FB series: high viscosity → FBE/FBEI; water and low viscosity → FBCN; heat transfer → FBOT; fire protection → FBFS. In Estância Velha, Rio Grande do Sul, 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 Estância Velha 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. Just 29 km separate Estância Velha from the refining cluster of Canoas — a distance that enables joint technical visits and dilution of mobilization cost across multiple customers. Industrial plants in Estância Velha 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. Service to Estância Velha is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC) (813 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.

Estância Velha: transferência geral and utilidades. This application mix is covered by the recommended FB series, with case-by-case fine tuning. For óleos industriais and água industrial in Estância Velha, the baseline is cast iron with proper coating or stainless steels when the fluid requires — FB engineering tunes from immersion tests, field history and iron/stainless/duplex compatibility within the local fluid classes. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Estância Velha, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. For Estância Velha (813 km from Cabreúva-SP), the critical-parts logistics cycle runs in 72-96h — a workable window for regular PM campaigns with controlled risk of extended downtime.
Estância Velha shows a medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). refino cluster near Estância Velha imposes a scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain pace — syncing equipment purchases, PM contracting and regional technical-team mobilization. By the belongs to the set of cities with relevant industrial scale in the state profile, Estância Velha ranks as a relevant market in FB's commercial plan with regular technical coverage. Estância Velha 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 Estância Velha, near a refino cluster, applications such as crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. In Estância Velha, 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).
The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Estância Velha is BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC), totaling 813 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment.

Regional service from Estância Velha — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. FB Bombas offers retrofit of existing installations, including seal upgrades, replacement of worn components, adaptation for new fluids and hydraulic performance improvement. The assessment is based on a technical report of the current installation.
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.
Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — a feature that enables dimensional retrofit on existing baseplates in Estância Velha plants originally equipped with KSB, Sulzer, Goulds or Flowserve. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard; the rotating set is swapped without changing piping or baseplate.
Yes. FB Bombas offers technical training for operations and maintenance teams in Estância Velha, with modules on: sizing and reading the characteristic curve, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Training can be delivered at the customer plant or at the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.
Yes. FB Bombas’ application engineering analyzes the installed pump specifications (flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature) and proposes dimensional or functional technical equivalence with one of our series. Many clients in Estância Velha have already made this replacement with gains in lead time, cost and local support.
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 Estância Velha, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
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.
