FBE Gear Pumps in Piratininga

Yes. The FBCN series complies with ASME B73.1 (North American standard for horizontal end-suction process centrifugal pumps) — which enables retrofit on existing baseplates in Piratininga plants, whoever manufactured the installed unit, provided the dimension designation matches. Shaft dimensions, suction/discharge flanges, casing feet and impeller centerline follow the standard: the complete FBCN pump goes in and piping and baseplate stay put.

In Piratininga, service comes directly from the factory in Cabreúva/SP, through the FB Bombas team. The customer speaks with application engineering for sizing, receives the complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and buys original parts at factory pricing. When project criticality warrants it, on-site technical visits to Piratininga are scheduled.

It does. The technical support and logistics covering Piratininga are the same applied to the metropolitan region and nearby microregions. That operating radius enables coordinated service to industrial plants distributed across several cities.

FB Bombas' trajectory as an industrial pump manufacturer began in 1944 and adds up to over 82 years of continuous experience. Engineering, manufacturing and testing operate under one roof at the Cabreúva/SP factory — a guarantee of total quality control on every unit that reaches Piratininga and the rest of Brazil.

It does. FB Bombas' retrofit service for existing installations encompasses updated seals, replaced worn components, adjustment to new fluids and improved hydraulic performance. To evaluate each case, the reference is the technical report on 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.

The schedule is set by three factors: chosen series, construction materials and stock at order time. Standard configurations ship faster; custom ones receive a firm date in the technical proposal. Delivery to Piratininga is by road, shipping directly from the factory.

ISO 21940 G2.5 is the grade applied to the rotating set of FB Bombas pumps — direct equivalence with what API 610 asks for heavy-duty service. Critical projects in Piratininga depend on this standard: continuous-regime operation, online vibration monitoring at the plant or high cost tied to unplanned downtime. When rotation exceeds 3,600 RPM or rotating mass goes over 50 kg, two-plane balancing is executed using a piezoelectric sensor.

A technical quote for Piratininga starts with the application briefing, sent via website form, WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837 or email comercial@fbbombas.com.br. Required items: fluid name with viscosity at operating temperature, target flow (m³/h), discharge head (m), available NPSH, operating temperature and whether the regime is continuous or intermittent. Once the analysis is complete, application engineering replies bringing a preliminary technical proposal, characteristic curve, suggested materials and delivery lead time.

During a plant shutdown in Piratininga, critical parts — mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings — enter FB Bombas' emergency flow: pre-invoicing, priority dispatch and choice of alternative modal (express road or air, depending on distance and criticality). Typical lead time depends on the region and the window is negotiated case by case. Customers with an installed base and scheduled PM can keep part of the stock on consignment at the plant.
