From the Cabreúva-SP factory, 473 km via BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, FB Bombas reaches Apiúna with FBE, FBCN, FBOT inventory and engineering capability for special projects. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Apiúna, Santa Catarina, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the indústria de transformação sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and qualification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification. FB Bombas maintains in Apiúna 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. Through 74-km proximity to the port cluster of Itajai, Apiúna inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. The road network BR-116, BR-101 and BR-282, with BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt as the main axis, defines response time for critical-part shipments and technical visits to Apiúna. Apiúna's productive fabric is dominated by indústria de transformação — sectors where FB Bombas maintains an installed base with normalized series (ASME B73.1) interchangeable with global majors. Apiúna requires pumping of óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.

For Apiúna, 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. Technical fit in Apiúna 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. In Apiúna, transferência em linhas de produção and utilidades de planta are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. In viscous fluid services in Apiúna, the FBE works where centrifugals lose efficiency: gear volumetric efficiency improves with viscosity, covering up to 100,000 SSU and 350 °C with a heating jacket — the typical case of óleos industriais e fluidos de processo. The design counterpart is mandatory — a discharge line protected by a relief valve, because positive displacement does not tolerate blockage.
Fluid-roster complexity in Apiúna is low — lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. The demand profile in Apiúna reflects low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume. Apiúna has a factory-floor economy: 38.2% of municipal value added is industrial (IBGE, 2021), over a 2023 GDP of R$ 511 million. This profile concentrates demand on process pumps and maintenance contracts with fast parts replacement. In Apiúna, óleos industriais e fluidos de processo 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 Apiúna, indústria de transformação accounts for a large share of the pumping load — combining utility lines (water, steam, compressed air) with dedicated process circuits. In Apiúna, 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.
Typical transit time to Apiúna: 24-48h via federal highways — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Apiúna is BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, totaling 473 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Apiúna occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Apiúna — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance — the North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps — is a feature of the FBCN series and enables retrofit on existing baseplates in Apiúna plants, regardless of which brand occupied the base, provided the designation coincides. Shaft, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline obey the standard, so the new pump takes the position without touching piping or baseplate.
Yes. For projects in Apiúna, on-site technical visits by application engineers can be scheduled for process data collection, diagnosis of existing installations and commissioning support. Geographic proximity makes this operation agile and recurring.
They can. FB Bombas' accreditation in FINAME (the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), as a Brazilian manufacturer, makes equipment destined for Apiúna 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.

After reviewing the briefing, application engineering returns a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time for your project in Apiúna.
FB pumps are supplied with a warranty against manufacturing defects according to the terms detailed in the commercial proposal. The warranty assumes installation, operation and maintenance within the parameters specified in the manual and sizing performed by engineering. Consult our technical team for specific details of your project in Apiúna.
Yes — and the secret lies in correct sizing, the main lever for energy efficiency. Both an oversized and an undersized pump waste energy. That is why FB Bombas engineering determines the optimal operating point from the actual process conditions in Apiúna, balancing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
Yes. FB Bombas serves Apiúna and the entire surrounding region with supply, technical support and replacement parts directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP. Support includes sizing at no cost and, for critical projects, on-site technical visits.
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.
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.
Four pillars: a current Petrobras CRCC registration for Oil & Gas; API 676 (positive displacement) on the FBE series; ASME B73.1 (process centrifugals) on the FBCN series; and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 compliance for stationary fire pumps.
