Technical solutions
What defines the FBE external gear pump in Tapiratiba is its behavior under variable pressure: being positive displacement, flow follows speed and practically ignores backpressure swings in the line — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. Two installation requirements follow from this physics: a sized relief valve on the discharge and, for fluids that harden when cold, a heating jacket on the pump body. Technical fit in Tapiratiba 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. Tapiratiba: óleos industriais and água industrial 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. For Tapiratiba, 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.
Why FB Bombas
The low fluid-complexity profile in Tapiratiba (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. In Tapiratiba, value added is dominated by services (44.4%, IBGE 2021), with a 2023 GDP of R$ 359 million — a profile where pumping demand concentrates on building infrastructure, sanitation, HVAC and utilities, FBCN centrifugal territory. Tapiratiba 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). The fluid catalogue in Tapiratiba (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. The sucroalcooleiro cluster around Tapiratiba 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. Use cases in Tapiratiba (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.
Logistics & support
Tapiratiba receives equipment within 12-24h via direct road modal counted from dispatch at the Cabreúva-SP factory.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tapiratiba
Does FB Bombas offer FAT and SAT support for projects in Tapiratiba?
Does FB Bombas offer FAT and SAT support for projects in Tapiratiba?
It offers both. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) takes place on the Cabreúva/SP bench and covers hydraulic testing, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration; when the customer specifies, inspection witnesses the tests. In the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) of Tapiratiba projects, application engineering supports commissioning with startup checklist, laser alignment and capture of the baseline vibration signature.
What certifications does FB Bombas hold?
What certifications does FB Bombas hold?
Four pillars: a current Petrobras CRCC registration for Oil & Gas; API 676 (positive displacement) on the FBE series; ASME B73.1 (process centrifugals) on the FBCN series; and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 compliance for stationary fire pumps.
Do FBCN pumps follow ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance?
Do FBCN pumps follow ASME B73.1 dimensional compliance?
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 Tapiratiba 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.
Does FB Bombas manufacture custom pumps?
Does FB Bombas manufacture custom pumps?
Yes. In addition to the standard portfolio, FB Bombas develops custom solutions for special applications, including modifications in construction materials, sealing arrangements, integrated heating systems, skids, mobile assemblies and retrofit of existing installations. Special projects go through engineering before manufacturing.

What is the balancing grade of FB pumps for critical projects in Tapiratiba?
What is the balancing grade of FB pumps for critical projects in Tapiratiba?
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 Tapiratiba 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.
Can FB Bombas pumps be financed via BNDES / FINAME in Tapiratiba?
Can FB Bombas pumps be financed via BNDES / FINAME in Tapiratiba?
Yes. As a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME — the BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency —, FB Bombas qualifies equipment supplied to Tapiratiba for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods), with preferential conditions for national industry. On the technical proposal, the commercial team includes the product's FINAME code to enter the customer's financial plan.
What is the advantage of Tapiratiba being close to the FB Bombas factory?
What is the advantage of Tapiratiba being close to the FB Bombas factory?
The 208 km distance via SP-300 Rodovia Marechal Rondon (via Rodoanel SP-021) shortens everything: more economical freight, faster delivery and easier on-site technical visits for critical projects. During maintenance shutdowns, proximity to Cabreúva/SP cuts the time between the call and the part on site.
Does FB Bombas retrofit older pumps?
Does FB Bombas retrofit older pumps?
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.
Are FB pumps energy efficient?
Are FB pumps energy efficient?
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 Tapiratiba, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
