Technical summary
The FBE+FBEI gear-pump line is specified in Saltinho, São Paulo for sucroalcooleiro — flow and pressure set by the actual system curve. Cabreúva-SP factory (76 km), API 676 and direct technical service from FB engineering.


Cabreúva-SP → Saltinho (76 km via SP-300 Rodovia Marechal Rondon (via Rodoanel SP-021)): 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. Through 14-km proximity to the sugar-and-ethanol cluster of Piracicaba, Saltinho inherits technical-qualification standards (CRCC, sector audits and customer-side homologation standards) and approved suppliers — a favorable context for normalized FB solutions. In Saltinho, sucroalcooleiro projects find their technical fit in the FB Bombas FBE series. FBE external gear pumps for transfer of molasses, ethanol, lubricating oils and viscous fluids in sugarcane mills. Typical pre-sizing: Ideal for molasses and honey, Operation with crystallized products, Easy cleaning. FB Bombas application engineering serves Saltinho 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). Road access runs via SP-300 Rodovia Marechal Rondon (via Rodoanel SP-021), with branches through SP-300, SP-021, SP-330, BR-116 and BR-374 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. Saltinho has sucroalcooleiro as its main industrial front — which directly shapes the pump type (gear, centrifugal, thermal-oil) with technical fit for each plant. FB Bombas maintains in Saltinho the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 610 + API 676 + ASME B73.1 — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, food, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel.

For Saltinho, 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 Saltinho points to FBE+FBEI and FBCN+FBOT as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. The sucroalcooleiro cluster near Saltinho brings a technical agenda of sugarcane juice, vinasse, molasses and thermal oil for evaporators — 24/7 operation during harvest — a reference FB Bombas uses as a benchmark for initial sizing and series selection. Saltinho: melaço, óleos lubrificantes and caldo de cana suggest materials such as cast iron with proper coating or stainless steels when the fluid requires — a choice impacting both durability and cost of the pump-and-motor set. Saltinho: transferência de melaço, dosagem de aditivos, circulação de caldo and destilação. This application mix is covered by the recommended FB series, with case-by-case fine tuning. In Saltinho, 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).
Saltinho: high fluid complexity, diversified fluid roster — requires a broad catalogue of materials and sealing configurations. Saltinho: by affinity to the sucroalcooleiro cluster, concentrated harvest season (Apr-Nov) creates short maintenance windows and intense parts demand during milling — a variable that enters commercial planning. Saltinho: low industrial density — typically standalone projects, without regional cumulative volume — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. At state scale, Saltinho has a specific regional profile, with industrial demand sized to its scale. The fluid catalogue in Saltinho (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. The microregion around Saltinho concentrates industrial plants with complementary technical demand — opening room for integrated supply, best-practice exchange and operational benchmarking. The sucroalcooleiro cluster around Saltinho 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 Saltinho sustain a continuous pipeline of technical demand — from scheduled replacement to ASME B73.1 dimensional retrofit replacing imported equipment. Use cases in Saltinho (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.
For Saltinho, 12-24h via direct road modal is the standard contractual transit window — compressible via emergency air modal for critical parts, on specific demand. For Saltinho, 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 → Saltinho via SP-300 Rodovia Marechal Rondon (via Rodoanel SP-021) (76 km): a corridor with regular FB freight history, supporting indivisible loads and sets with escort when the gauge demands. The SP-300, SP-021, SP-330, BR-116 and BR-374 mesh provides logistics redundancy for Saltinho — when one route is restricted (rains, construction, accidents), delivery is rerouted without compromising the critical lead time. The factory-to-Saltinho logistics cycle begins with documented dispatch: invoice, packing list, test certificates and the equipment's technical manual.
