Manufacturer's description

Shell Tellus S2 M are high-performance hydraulic fluids that use Shell's unique patented technology to deliver outstanding protection and operating performance for most mobile and manufacturing equipment. They resist mechanical stress and help prevent the formation of harmful deposits that can reduce hydraulic system efficiency. The ISO VG 68 grade has a kinematic viscosity of 68 cSt at 40 °C and 8.6 cSt at 100 °C, with a viscosity index of 97.

Applications

• Industrial hydraulic systemsApproved and recommended by a wide range of equipment manufacturers, Shell Tellus S2 M fluids are suitable for a wide range of hydraulic system applications found in manufacturing and industrial environments.
• Mobile hydraulic power transmission systemsShell Tellus S2 M fluids can be used effectively in mobile hydraulic applications such as excavators and cranes, except where significant ambient temperature variations occur. For these applications, we recommend the products in the Shell Tellus "V" range.
• Marine hydraulic systemsSuitable for marine applications where ISO HM category hydraulic fluids are recommended. influencing factors

Performance & benefits

• Long service life – reduced maintenance: Shell Tellus S2 M fluids help extend equipment maintenance intervals through their resistance to thermal and chemical breakdown. This minimises deposit formation and delivers excellent performance in the industry-standard ASTM D943 TOST (Turbine Oil Stability Test), providing better system reliability and cleanliness. Shell Tellus S2 M fluids also have good stability in the presence of moisture, which ensures a long fluid life and reduces the risk of corrosion and rusting, particularly in humid environments
• Outstanding wear protection: Zinc-based anti-wear additives are incorporated to ensure proven effectiveness under all operating conditions, including low-load and heavy-load conditions. Outstanding performance in a series of piston and vane pump tests, including the Denison T6C test (dry and wet versions) and Vickers 35VQ25, demonstrates how Shell Tellus S2 M fluids can help system components last longer
• Maintaining system efficiency: Superior cleanliness, excellent filterability and outstanding water separation, air release and anti-foam characteristics all help maintain or increase the efficiency of hydraulic systems. The unique additive system in Shell Tellus S2 M, combined with a superior degree of cleanliness (meeting the requirements of ISO 4406 21/19/16 or better, e.g. at Shell filling lines; as recognised by the DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences).
