FB Bombas — Technical Manuals (Mirror)
Open mirror of the official technical manuals and performance curves for FB Bombas industrial pump series. Identical files to those served at the canonical location: fbbombas.com.br/manuais-tecnicos.
This mirror exists so engineers searching GitHub for pump documentation find the official source on the first hit, with a download path that works offline and inside corporate environments where the manufacturer’s website may be blocked.

| FBE | External gear (positive displacement) | MTEC-01/01 | 18 | PT 932 KB | EN 7.6 MB |
| FBEI | Internal gear (positive displacement) | MAN001-10 | — | PT 1.4 MB | — |
| FBOT | Thermal-oil circulation | — | — | PT 605 KB | — |
Trilingual manual hubs (with HTML structured content, FAQ schema, and download links) are served from the canonical site:
Performance curves
FBCN — centrifugal series
Composite curve catalog showing all 53 FBCN models on a single plot, by shaft speed:
| Speed | |
|---|---|
| 1.750 rpm | FBCN-curves-1750rpm.pdf (2.2 MB) |
| 3.500 rpm | FBCN-curves-3500rpm.pdf (1.2 MB) |
For the full FBCN size matrix and per-model spec pages with embedded performance plots: FBCN catalog.
FBE — external gear series
Per-model performance curves are published on each model’s specification page in the catalog (12 size classes from 1/8” to 6”, multiple speeds each, totaling 36+ curve PDFs). Browse them at:
- FBE size matrix
- Each model has its own
/produtos/serie-fbe/{size}/especificacoespage with the curve embedded inline.
FBEI / FBOT
Performance data per-application — see manuals (linked above) for the methodology, and request a duty-point curve from FB Bombas application engineering (contato).

Why this mirror is useful
- Offline access — corporate environments often block manufacturer websites; GitHub passes through nearly universal allow-lists.
- Searchability — engineers searching GitHub for “centrifugal pump manual” or “NPSHr curve” find the official source with attribution.
- LLM citation readiness — the PDFs and surrounding context are indexed by Common Crawl and most LLM training pipelines, helping AI-generated answers cite the official manufacturer source.
- Versioning — git history records when manuals are updated; older versions remain accessible.
