Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 High Viscosity Index (HVI) Hydraulic Oil

Long Fluid Life – Maintenance Saving – Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 helps extend equipment maintenance intervals by resisting thermal and chemical breakdown. This minimizes any harmful sludge formation and provides better reliability and system cleanliness. Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 also has a good stability in the presence of moisture, which ensures long fluid life and reduces the risk of corrosion and rusting, particularly in moist or humid environments. Higher shear stable viscosity modifiers help minimize variations in the fluid properties throughout the service life of the fluid. Outstanding Wear Protection – Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 is designed to meet the demands of hydraulic systems well in to the future, including enhanced extreme pressure performance in the FZG test (FLS 11 at ISO VG 32). It also demonstrates excellent performance in the tough Denison T6H20C (dry and wet versions) and the demanding Eaton Vickers 35VQ25. Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 can help system components last longer. Maintaining System Efficiency – Excellent filterability and high performance water separation, air release and antifoam characteristics all help contribute to maintaining or enhancing the efficiency of hydraulic systems. Optimization of friction characteristics also helps reduce harmful stick-slip effects. An oil cleanliness particle count of ISO 4406 20/18/22 or better (measured at the point of filling) helps reduce the impact of contaminants on filter blocking, allowing both extended filter life and enhancing equipment protection. Shell Tellus S2 VX 22 is formulated for exceptional foam control and excellent air release to faciliate efficient hydraulic power transfer and minimize fluid and equipment impacts of cavitation induced oxidation that can shorten fluid life., Long Fluid Life – Maintenance Saving – Shell Tellus S3 V 46 offers an improved capability to extend fluid maintenance intervals and hence reduce equipment downtime through:, An extended ASTM D943 TOST lifetime, with an oxidative stability that is designed for a minimum 5000 hours TOST life, Excellent resistance to breakdown in the presence of water and heat, Class leading shear stability to maintain viscosity control These features provide extended maintenance capability without compromising protection or performance, even under severe or extended temperature range applications. Outstanding Wear Protection – Advanced ashless (zinc-free) anti-wear additives provide protection over a wide range of conditions, including low and severe duty, and high-load operations. The very high viscosity index (VI) of Shell Tellus S3 V 46, in combination with outstanding shear stability, help to ensure that critical oil film thickness is maintained in the highly stressed components of the hydraulic system. Protection is maintained even under high temperature and high load conditions. Environmental Impact – Shell Tellus S3 V 46 has a reduced environmental impact in the event of a leak or accidental spillage compared to conventional zinc-based hydraulic fluids. This is achieved through the use of ashless anti-wear technology and low sulfur base oils. Shell Tellus S3 V 46 is 'not harmful' to freshwater and marine invertebrates (OECD 202, US EPA OPPTS 850.1035). For further reductions in environmental impact, we offer the Shell Naturelle range of environmental considerate lubricants. For the most severe operating conditions, longest fluid life and enhanced efficiency, Shell Tellus S4 ME offers our highest level of performance and system efficiency. Maintaining System Efficiency – Superior cleanliness and outstanding filterability, excellent water separation, air release and anti-foam characteristics, all help to maintain or enhance hydraulic system efficiency. The excellent filterability is maintained even when the fluid is contaminated with water, with negligible production of the silts or gels that can block fine system filters. Shell Tellus S3 V 46 meets the Shell plant filling lines requirements of max ISO 4406 21/19/16 class. As recognized by DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences with transport and storage that could affect the cleanliness level. These features contribute to extended filter life and allow the use of finer filtration for added equipment protection., Low Temperature System Operation and Efficiency – The very high viscosity index (VI) of Shell Tellus S4 VX 32 ensures that the hydraulic fluid flows at temperatures where conventional hydraulic fluids would become too thick to allow equipment operation. This allows safe equipment start-up at very low temperatures, with no or minimum heating of the system being required. This delivers increased equipment availability and more efficient operation of the hydraulic system, which in turn, helps users obtain higher productivity from their machines. Extremely Wide Operating Temperature Range – The very high viscosity index of the fresh fluid, coupled with mechanical shear stability, allows operation over a very wide temperature range. All-year round operation with Shell Tellus S4 VX 32 is therefore possible (subject to a maximum operating temperature of 75 C). Equipment Protection – Shell Tellus S4 VX 32 contains a carefully designed ashless (zinc-free) anti-wear additives to help protect critical components of the hydraulic system from wear. Shell Tellus S4 VX 32 is manufactued with a quality system assuring the fluid at the Shell plant filling lines meets the requirements of max ISO 4406 21/19/16 class. As recognized by DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences with transport and storage that could affect the cleanliness level.
