FBCN Centrifugal Pumps in Ubatuba

Yes. The process starts with FB Bombas' application engineering, which studies the installed pump's specifications — flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature — and indicates the dimensional or functional technical equivalence within our series. In Ubatuba, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.

Yes. On the factory bench in Cabreúva/SP the FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is carried out: hydraulic test with characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration — witnessed by customer inspection when specified. The SAT (Site Acceptance Test) on Ubatuba projects counts on application engineering during commissioning, including startup checklist, laser alignment and recording of the baseline vibration signature.

The 210 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.

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 Ubatuba 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.

Shorter delivery times (no import dependency), direct technical support from FB engineering, replacement parts with in-house manufacturing, prices in local currency (no exchange rate exposure) and on-site service for projects in Ubatuba and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.

Coverage against manufacturing defects accompanies the supply of FB pumps — the full terms appear in the commercial proposal. It holds as long as installation, operation and maintenance follow what the manual specifies and the sizing performed by engineering. Our technical team clarifies the specific conditions of your project in Ubatuba.

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.

Sizing is performed by FB Bombas’ application engineering team based on four key variables: desired flow, differential pressure, working temperature and fluid viscosity. Additional data such as available NPSH, operating cycle and fluid chemical compatibility are also considered. The service is free of charge for customers in Ubatuba.

Service to Ubatuba is handled directly by the FB Bombas team at the Cabreúva/SP factory. That means direct contact with application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and original spare parts supplied at factory-direct pricing. On-site technical visits to Ubatuba are planned based on project criticality.

There is. Full production in Cabreúva/SP guarantees factory replacement parts for all four series — planned shutdowns get short lead times and emergencies receive priority handling, which protects the total cost of ownership of the equipment installed in Ubatuba.
