Direct answer for industrial projects — recommended series, standards compliance and logistics.
In Saudades, Santa Catarina, FB Bombas offers FBEI, FBCN series sized for indústria de transformação. In-house factory in Cabreúva-SP (715 km), direct technical service from engineering and 72-96h logistics lead time for critical parts. Standards: API 676 and ASME B73.1; API 610 on engineered-to-order projects.
Service to Saudades is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt (715 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support. The BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt corridor combined with highways BR-116, BR-101 and BR-282 composes the freight mesh to Saudades — a cost variable in pricing skids, pump-motor sets and indivisible cargo with escort. Through 358-km proximity to the petrochemical cluster of Triunfo, Saudades inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. CRCC Petrobras registration valid in SC qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Saudades in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE (API 676) and FBCN (ASME B73.1) series and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. In Saudades, Indústria de Transformação concentrate the largest share of demand for rotating equipment — a technical agenda well known to the FB application team, with proposals sized against the actual system curve. Saudades 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. Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer since 1944, FB Bombas supplies Saudades, Santa Catarina with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT, FBEI series and FBFS fire-fighting systems — designed and produced in Cabreúva-SP with API 676 compliance, ASME B73.1 normalization (interchangeable with global manufacturers), API 610 engineered-to-order projects and a traceable Data Book on every unit shipped.
For Saudades (715 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. The transferência em linhas de produção and utilidades de planta set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Saudades; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. Material selection for óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial in Saudades considers cast iron with proper coating or stainless steels when the fluid requires — a specification FB Bombas details on a matweb sheet after fluid chemical analysis. Technical fit in Saudades 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.
Saudades: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. The economic base of Saudades confirms the profile: industry accounted for 38.7% of municipal value added (IBGE, 2021), and 2023 GDP totaled R$ 718 million — a scale that sustains recurring demand for process pumps, utilities and installed-fleet replacement. Saudades: by affinity to the petroquimico cluster, continuous operation with triennial outages (TPM) — moments of concentrated demand for retrofitted equipment — a variable that enters commercial planning. indústria de transformação plants in Saudades sustain a continuous pipeline of technical demand — from scheduled replacement to ASME B73.1 dimensional retrofit replacing imported equipment. The fluid catalogue in Saudades (óleos industriais e fluidos de processo and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. The petroquimico cluster around Saudades concentrates applications cracking, hydrocarbon transfer, fractionation tower recirculation and oily-water pumping — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history.
The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Saudades is BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, totaling 715 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Typical transit time to Saudades: 48-72h, with possible technical stop — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Saudades occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.
FB engineers serve Saudades with a formal technical proposal: curve-based sizing, materials, NPSH, field conditions and lead time. First engineering response within 1 business day; complete proposal within 3-5 business days.
Talk to engineeringFor over 82 years, we have manufactured industrial pumps in Cabreúva-SP. From north to south, we serve the country's main industrial hubs with gear (FBE/FBEI) and centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT) pumps — engineered, machined and assembled in our own manufacturing facility.

Beyond Saudades, FB Bombas supplies the FBE / FBCN / FBOT / FBEI series for indústria de transformação plants across multiple Brazilian cities — shared technical repertoire, field-validated materials and traceable Data Book on every project.
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.
Credentials include an active Petrobras CRCC, API 676 compliance on the FBE gear line, ASME B73.1 compliance on the FBCN centrifugal and adherence to NFPA 20 and NBR 16704 on fire-fighting systems. Technical documentation and data book accompany supplies upon requirement.
It directly affects viscous fluids: viscosity at winter cold start can be several times higher than at operation, raising the torque demanded from the motor. For oils, asphalt and resins, engineering evaluates a heating jacket and sizes the drive for the most severe condition — not the average.
Each series has its thermal limit: with heating jacket and special sealing, FBE and FBEI reach 350°C; FBOT hits the same 350°C in thermal oil circuits; FBCN goes up to 260°C when fitted with proper materials and sealing. Safe operation requires correctly sized sealing and materials.
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, when the dimension designation matches. The FBCN series follows ASME B73.1 (North American dimensional standard for end-suction process pumps), which requires pumps of the same designation, from any source of supply, to be interchangeable as to mounting dimensions, suction and discharge nozzles, input shaft, baseplate and foundation bolt holes — in Saudades plants this applies to the installed normalized fleet. FB Bombas supplies the complete pump, not loose parts: baseplate, piping and foundation stay, and a new FBCN goes in. Before supply, application engineering checks the duty point (Q×H), available NPSH and flange class — a matching designation alone does not guarantee hydraulic equivalence.

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 Saudades, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
Yes. With a factory in Cabreúva/SP and a technical team dedicated to projects in Saudades, FB Bombas has manufactured industrial pumps in Brazil since 1944. Applications currently running on imported equipment are covered by the FBCN (centrifugal), FBE/FBEI (gear) and FBOT (thermal oil) series — adding advantages in lead time (no import), factory-direct technical support, spare parts for FB pumps and application engineering that works in Portuguese. In a normalized-line retrofit, the interchangeability set out in ASME B73.1 holds between units of the same standard dimension designation, whatever the original supplier.
