Technical summary
For viscous fluids in alimentos (Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul), FB application engineering recommends FBEI as a starting point. API 676 compliance, vertically integrated manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP, 72-96h lead time.


Cabreúva-SP → Pelotas (1070 km via BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC)): 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. CRCC Petrobras certification valid in RS qualifies FB Bombas for direct supply to Pelotas in refining and petrochemical operations, with FBE and FBCN series compliant with API 610 / API 676 and materials specified per NACE MR0175 for sour service with H2S. For the dominant alimentos sector in Pelotas, FB Bombas offers the FBCN series — FBCN centrifugal pumps with sanitary materials for food processing, process water and utilities. Typical specification: 316L stainless steel available, Easy sanitization, Sanitary mechanical seal. Pelotas is served by the BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC) axis and also by highways BR-116, BR-290 and BR-101 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. Pelotas sits 38 km from the port cluster centered in Rio Grande, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 80 years of continuous operation. For the alimentos industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBCN series with CRCC Petrobras certification, API 610 / API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed. Membership in the Sudeste Rio-grandense mesoregion (IBGE) places Pelotas in a regional economic mesh — a factor FB Bombas uses to optimize multi-city maintenance campaigns and consolidate freight across customers along the same axis. FB Bombas application engineering serves Pelotas 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). The fluid roster in Pelotas (óleos comestíveis, água de processo and óleo térmico) demands attention to viscosity, operating temperature and chemical compatibility — variables that FB application engineering uses to recommend the proper series.

The fluid roster in Pelotas (óleos comestíveis, água de processo and óleo térmico) demands attention to viscosity, operating temperature and chemical compatibility — variables that FB application engineering uses to recommend the proper series.
The transferência de óleos, pasteurização and limpeza CIP set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Pelotas; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. FBEI and FBOT: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Pelotas, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. In Pelotas, materials such as AISI 316 or for chloride resistance in marine atmosphere answer the requirements of óleos comestíveis, água de processo and óleo térmico — a combination that drives service life of casing, impeller, shaft and shaft sleeve, refined via corrosion analysis using removal rates (mpy). Recommended sealing for the operation profile in Pelotas is single cartridge mechanical seal (Plan 11/13) for general service, upgradable to dual when the fluid requires secondary containment — a choice that affects MTBF and maintenance procedure. The technical profile of the portuario cluster near Pelotas involves bunker fuel oil (BPF), seawater for cooling and liquid bulk movement — information that guides preliminary sizing of FB series. 100% of pumps bound for Pelotas pass through the Cabreúva-SP hydraulic bench — acceptance testing with multi-point curve readings and G2.5 dynamic balancing.
In Pelotas, the medium complexity index in the fluid mix sets moderate fluid roster — concentration in a few main technical categories — a factor adjusting both technical-spec depth and materials-catalogue scope. In Pelotas, portuario-cluster seasonality manifests as continuous flow with seasonality tied to agricultural harvests (bulk) and fuel supply — information FB Bombas uses to schedule plant capacity and ready-to-ship inventory. In Pelotas, very high industrial concentration — territory for multi-customer technical-visit campaigns — a characteristic that sizes FB's commercial strategy: application-engineering coverage, visit cadence and depth of consignment stock. Pelotas ranks among the 10 largest cities in the state at relevant industrial scale — an input that defines commercial priority and relationship type (one-shot, annual program, master agreement). In Pelotas, óleos comestíveis, água de processo and óleo térmico form the typical fluid set — guiding both series selection (gear, centrifugal, thermal oil) and constructive detail (closed/open/semi-open impeller). In Pelotas, alimentos accounts for a large share of the pumping load — combining utility lines (water, steam, compressed air) with dedicated process circuits. Pelotas shows cases like series FBEI for transferência de óleos and series FBOT for pasteurização and limpeza CIP — a package FB Bombas addresses with real-curve sizing, material recommendation and dimensioned seal configuration. The microregion around Pelotas concentrates industrial plants with complementary technical demand — opening room for integrated supply, best-practice exchange and operational benchmarking. In Pelotas, near a portuario cluster, applications such as bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues.
Typical transit time to Pelotas: 48-72h, with possible technical stop — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. Beyond the main route, Pelotas is accessible via BR-116, BR-290 and BR-101 — options that provide redundancy in case of blockages or restricted operating windows. Technical-service coverage for Pelotas involves technical visits scheduled in advance, optimizing the specialized team's travel. The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Pelotas is BR-116 (via Régis Bittencourt até PR/SC), totaling 1070 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Pelotas occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.
FB engineers serve Pelotas for the FBE series with a sized proposal — duty point, fluid, field conditions and supply lead time.
