Technical solutions
100% of pumps bound for Rafard pass through the Cabreúva-SP hydraulic bench — acceptance testing with multi-point curve readings and G2.5 dynamic balancing. For melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana in Rafard, 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. For the technical profile observed in Rafard, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBE+FBEI and FBCN+FBOT as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature. The transferência de melaço, dosagem de aditivos, circulação de caldo and destilação set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Rafard; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. The technical profile of the sucroalcooleiro cluster near Rafard involves sugarcane juice, vinasse, molasses and thermal oil for evaporators — 24/7 operation during harvest — information that guides preliminary sizing of FB series. In Rafard, FBCN centrifugal pumps with flow up to 2,200 m³/h, head up to 138 m and temperature up to 260°C (thermal oil via FBOT up to 350°C) — this range covers most of the Q×H diagram operated in the field; off-envelope points are handled with custom selection (trimmed impeller, larger motor, double-suction when applicable).
Why FB Bombas
The high fluid-complexity profile in Rafard (diversified fluid roster — requires a broad catalogue of materials and sealing configurations) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. sucroalcooleiro cluster near Rafard imposes a concentrated harvest season (Apr-Nov) creates short maintenance windows and intense parts demand during milling pace — syncing equipment purchases, PM contracting and regional technical-team mobilization. Rafard shows a low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). By the has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale profile, Rafard ranks as a relevant market in FB's commercial plan with regular technical coverage. The fluid catalogue in Rafard (melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. In Rafard, FBFS fire-protection projects serve industrial buildings, commercial spaces and logistics warehouses with approval for state Fire Department and insurers. The sucroalcooleiro cluster around Rafard concentrates applications juice circulation, molasses transfer, vinasse boost and thermal oil for evaporators — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. sucroalcooleiro plants in Rafard sustain a continuous pipeline of technical demand — from scheduled replacement to ASME B73.1 dimensional retrofit replacing imported equipment. Use cases in Rafard (series FBE+FBEI for transferência de melaço and dosagem de aditivos and series FBCN+FBOT for circulação de caldo and destilação) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region.
Logistics & support
For Rafard, 12-24h via direct road modal is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand. The SP-300, SP-021, SP-330, BR-116 and BR-374 mesh provides logistics redundancy for Rafard — when one route is restricted (rains, construction, accidents), delivery is rerouted without compromising the critical lead time. For Rafard, FB service follows the in-person technical visits with rapid mobilization — Cabreúva → customer route in a few hours model — application engineers conduct pre-scheduled visits while remote support via documentation and phone covers point queries. Cabreúva-SP → Rafard via SP-300 Rodovia Marechal Rondon (via Rodoanel SP-021) (53 km): a corridor with regular FB freight history, supporting indivisible loads and sets with escort when the gauge demands. For Rafard, FB dispatch is preceded by: hydrostatic test at 1.5× design pressure, performance run with curve points, G2.5 dynamic balancing and Data Book closure — all traceable by serial number.

Frequently Asked Questions about Rafard
Yes. FB Bombas serves Rafard 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. 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 Rafard have already made this replacement with gains in lead time, cost and local support.
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 Rafard 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 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.
FB Bombas holds: active CRCC at Petrobras (supplier registry for Oil & Gas); compliance with API 676 (international standard for positive displacement pumps — FBE series); compliance with API 610 (standard for centrifugal pumps in refineries — FBCN series); compliance with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) standards and ABNT NBR 16704 for stationary fire protection pump systems.
FBE external gear pumps can operate with fluids up to 100,000 SSU (approximately 22,000 cSt). For very high viscosities, rotation is reduced to maintain volumetric efficiency and component life. Engineering sizes each application in Rafard according to the actual viscosity profile.
The FB line covers a wide range: mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins, viscous chemical and hydraulic products (FBE series); raw and treated water, process fluids, industrial effluents (FBCN series); thermal oil at elevated temperatures (FBOT series). Each application is sized according to fluid viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Rafard with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
Yes. FBOT is FB Bombas’ specific centrifugal pump for thermal oil circuits, operating at elevated temperatures with fluids like Therminol, Dowtherm and similar. Material and sealing selection is done according to the maximum operating temperature and type of thermal oil.
