Typical characteristics

Manufacturer's description

High-performance synthetic industrial gear oil. Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is a premium-quality synthetic industrial gear oil, approved by Flender, that delivers outstanding lubrication performance under severe operating conditions, including reduced friction, long service life and high resistance to micro-pitting, for optimum gear protection, and is compatible with sealing materials.

Applications

• Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is particularly recommended for certain systems where a very long service life is required, where maintenance is infrequent or where the systems are inaccessible. Excellent compatibility with seals, paints and sealing materials
• Recommended for industrial reduction gears and gear units using a wide range of seals, including nitrile rubber and fluoroelastomers. Meets the requirements for Flender gearboxes and gear units.
• Enclosed industrial gearsRecommended for industrial reduction gear systems operating under severe conditions, such as high load, very high or very low temperatures and wide temperature variations.
• Other applicationsShell Omala S4 GXV 220 oils are suitable for lubricating gears and other lubrication systems using oil circulation or splash. For heavily loaded worm gears, the Shell Omala "W" series oils are recommended. For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax oil should be used. Specifications, approvals and recommendations: the product meets or exceeds the following industry standards:
• The product is approved for: Flender – In accordance with the Flender T 7300 specification, Shell Omala S4 GXV 150-680 oils are approved by Flender for use in Flender gear units with helical, bevel, planetary and marine gears that are not fitted with multi-disc clutches.

• ANSI/AGMA 9005

Performance & benefits

• Long oil life - maintenance saving: formulated using an advanced additive system with specially selected synthetic base fluids for outstanding resistance to breakdown over long duration and/or high-temperature operation; can operate at bulk temperatures up to 120°C and offers the potential to significantly extend service intervals compared with conventional industrial gear oils.
• Excellent wear and corrosion protection: formulated for excellent load-carrying capacity and micro-pitting performance, giving long component life even under shock loading, with benefits over mineral oil-based products for gear and bearing life, plus excellent corrosion protection even in the presence of water and solids.
• Maintaining system efficiency: helps maintain or enhance the efficiency of industrial gear systems through improved low-temperature performance and lower friction compared with mineral oil-based products, giving better lubrication at low start-up temperatures.
