FBCN Centrifugal Pumps in Lontras

Logistically, the city connects to Cabreúva-SP via BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, complemented by alternatives BR-116, BR-101 and BR-282 — a network that supports technical service within tight operational windows. Through 92-km proximity to the port cluster of Itajai, Lontras inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. FB Bombas application engineering serves Lontras with custom technical sizing: system characteristic curve, available NPSH, in-service viscosity and mechanical-seal strategy (API Plan 11, 13, 52 or 53 by criticality). Within IBGE mesoregion Vale do Itajaí, Lontras shares economic context with adjacent municipalities, shaping typical pump specifications and the frequency of synchronized maintenance campaigns. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Lontras, Santa Catarina, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the local industry sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and certification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification. CRCC Petrobras certification valid in SC qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Lontras in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE and FBCN series compliant with API 610 / API 676 and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. Cabreúva-SP → Lontras (493 km via BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book.

Technical solutions

Typical applications mapped for Lontras include transferência geral and utilidades — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. Recommended sealing for the operation profile in Lontras is single cartridge mechanical seal (Plan 11/13) for general service, upgradable to dual when the fluid requires secondary containment — a choice that affects MTBF and maintenance procedure. In Lontras, FBEI and FBCN cover the technical range observed in the field — from primary transfer and circulation to drop-in retrofit cases (ASME B73.1 dimensional interchangeability) with global majors. Technical-and-commercial support for Lontras is covered from Cabreúva-SP, with typical lead time for critical parts of 48-72h via dedicated carrier.

Why FB Bombas

Lontras: low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. At state scale, Lontras has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale. Lontras: by affinity to the portuario cluster, continuous flow with seasonality tied to agricultural harvests (bulk) and fuel supply — a variable that enters commercial planning. The fluid catalogue in Lontras (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Use cases in Lontras (series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region. The portuario cluster around Lontras concentrates applications bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history.

Logistics & support

The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Lontras is BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, totaling 493 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Beyond the main route, Lontras is accessible via BR-116, BR-101 and BR-282 — options that provide redundancy in case of blockages or restricted operating windows. Technical-service coverage for Lontras involves planned technical visits with 1-2 day mobilization window — direct coordination with the customer.

Yes. FB Bombas serves Lontras 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.

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. For projects in Lontras, 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.

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, with a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team for projects in Lontras. The FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series cover applications typically served by global manufacturers such as KSB, Sulzer, Imbil and Grundfos — with advantages in lead time (no import), direct support without intermediaries, fast spare-parts availability and Portuguese-speaking application engineering. For retrofits, ASME B73.1 normalization ensures dimensional interchangeability with existing baseplates.

The FB Bombas rotating set is balanced per ISO 21940 G2.5 (a balancing grade equivalent to API 610 requirements for heavy-duty service) — required for critical projects in Lontras with continuous regime, plants with online vibration monitoring or applications with high cost of unplanned downtime. For machines running above 3,600 RPM or with rotating mass over 50 kg, balancing is performed on two planes with a piezoelectric sensor.

Yes. The FBCN series follows ASME B73.1 normalization (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps) — which makes the pump-and-motor set interchangeable with global manufacturers (KSB, Sulzer, Goulds, Flowserve) already installed in plants in Lontras. For retrofits, the existing baseplate, suction/discharge piping and foundations are usually preserved; what changes is the rotating set. FB application engineering performs the dimensional gap analysis prior to supply.

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 Lontras.

Maximum temperature depends on the series: FBE and FBEI operate up to 350°C with heating jacket and special sealing; FBOT operates up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN operates up to 250°C with proper materials and sealing. Correct sizing of sealing and materials is essential for safe operation.

Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Lontras for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods) with preferential conditions for national industry. The commercial team provides the product FINAME code on the technical proposal for inclusion in the customer financial plan.
