INDUSTRIAL HYDRAULIC FLUID FOR WIDE TEMPERATURE RANGE
PREVIOUSLY SHELL TELLUS T
Shell Tellus S2 V fluids are high performance hydraulic fluids that use Shell’s unique patented technology with
excellent viscosity control under both severe mechanical stress and across a wide range of temperatures.
They provide outstanding protection and performance in most mobile equipment and other applications
subjected to wider ranges of ambient or operating temperatures.
LONG FLUID LIFE – MAINTENANCE SAVING
n Shell Tellus S2 V fluids help extend equipment maintenance intervals
by resisting thermal and chemical breakdown. This minimises
sludge formation and provides excellent performance in the industry
standard ASTM D 943 Turbine Oil Stability Test (TOST).
n
Shell Tellus S2 V fluids also have 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.
n
Highly
shear stable viscosity modifiers help minimise variations
in the fluid properties throughout the fluid drain interval.
n Proven zinc-based anti-wear additives are incorporated to be
effective throughout the range of operating conditions, including
low load and severe duty high load conditions. Outstanding
performance in a range of piston and vane pump tests, including
the tough Denison T6C (dry and wet versions) and the demanding
Vickers 35VQ25, demonstrates how Shell Tellus S2 V fluids can
help system components last longer.
n The extended temperature range capability of Shell Tellus S2 V
allows efficient operation of mobile equipment from cold start to
normal operating conditions.
n
Superior cleanliness, excellent filterability and high performance water
separation, air release and anti-foam characteristics all help contribute
to maintaining or enhancing the efficiency of hydraulic systems.
n
The unique additive system in Shell Tellus S2 V, in combination
with superior cleanliness (meeting the requirements of max ISO
4406 21/19/16 class, ex Shell filling lines. As recognised by
DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences
with transport and storage that could affect the cleanliness level)
helps reduce the impact of contaminants on filter blocking,
allowing both extended filter life and use of finer filtration for extra
equipment protection.
n
Shell Tellus S2 V fluids are formulated for fast air release without
excessive foaming to help efficient hydraulic power transfer and
minimise fluid and equipment impacts of cavitation-induced
oxidation that can shorten fluid life.
APPLICATIONS
MOBILE/EXTERIOR HYDRAULIC APPLICATIONS
n Hydraulic and fluid power transmission systems in exposed
environments can be subject to wide variations in temperature.
The high viscosity index of Shell Tellus S2 V helps deliver
responsive performance from cold start conditions to full load,
severe duty operation.
PRECISION HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
n Precision hydraulic systems require excellent control of fluid
viscosity over the operating cycle. Shell Tellus S2 V provides greater

INDUSTRY HYDRAULIC FLUIDS–FIRE RESISTENT
SHELL IRUS FLUID C
SHELL IRUS FLUID C
HFC TYPE FIRE-RESISTANT HYDRAULIC FLUID
Shell Irus Fluid C is an advanced water-glycol fire resistant hydraulic fluid containing powerful additives
to enhance its anti-wear, anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation properties. The water content is approximately
40% by weight.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
FIRE RESISTANT FOR HIGH RISK INSTALLATIONS
n As demonstrated in the 7th Luxembourg Report fire resistance
tests the product contributes significantly to reduce the fire risk
both in presence of flame and hot surfaces due to fire resistance
properties.
CONTROL OF WATER CONTENT
EXCELLENT COMPONENTS AND FLUID DURATION
n Reliable operation especially compared with fluids of older
technologies.
IMPROVED WEAR PERFORMANCES AGAINST
MINIMUM INDUSTRY STANDARD
n As demonstrated in the vane pump testing required by the 7th
Luxembourg Report the product offers significantly better
anti-wear performances than the minimum required by the
standard.
APPLICATIONS
Shell Irus Fluid C is particularly suitable for demanding hydraulic
applications where there is a high fire risk, such as those found in
the Mining and Metal Processing industries.
In order to reduce the water evaporation Shell Irus Fluid C, as for all
the ISO HFC type of fluids, should be used below 55°C with
a suggested maximum temperature of 45°C.
LUBRICATION AND COMPONENT LIFE
In general, water-glycol fluids are less effective bearing lubricants
than petroleum mineral hydraulic oils, but are entirely satisfactory in
systems containing pumps with plain bearings or lightly loaded ball
and roller bearings. However, in common with other water-based
fluids a reduction in bearing life can be expected. This will normally
be included in the ‘derating’ made by the pump manufacturer.
Water content should be controlled within 35% to 45% by weight.
Condensate or de-ionized water should be used for any additions,
which should be made slowly while the fluid is circulating.
CONVERSION FROM OTHER TYPES OF FLUIDS
Specific attention should be given in case of converting to Shell Irus
Fluid C systems that were previously using lubricants of different types
than ISO HFC (e.g. mineral oils or ISO HFDU type of products).
In such a case it is suggested you seek advice from your Shell
representative about the change over procedure you should follow.

to be extended over normal service practices due to low deposits
forming tendencies. Compressors can be kept in service for much
longer periods, operating at a consistently high level of efficiency.
SEAL COMPATIBILITY
ENHANCED AIR–LINES SAFETY
n In discharge air-lines, the combination of rust particles, dispersed in
carbonaceous deposits, coupled with heat from recently compressed
air, can cause an exothermic reaction leading to the possibility
of fires and explosion. Shell Corena S2 P helps to minimise the
likelihood of this danger arising.
MAINTENANCE SYSTEM EFFICIENCY
n Resistant to the formation of carbon deposits and lacquer on
valves and piston crowns, caused by the by-products of corrosion,
such as ferric oxides and hydroxides, at high working temperatures
and pressures. Such deposits can cause serious damage, lower
compressor efficiency and increase maintenance costs.
n
Shell
Corena S2 P separates readily from water allowing excess
water to be drained from the oil circulation system, thus preventing
accelerated corrosion and a reduction in lubrication efficiency.
This also helps to separate oil from condensate in oil/water
separators and drier units.

high compressor performance over long periods. It enables the
normal valve maintenance period, typically between 250 and
1,000 hours of operation using conventional mineral oils, to be
extended to 2,000, or even 4,000 hours.
ENHANCED AIR-LINE SAFETY
n The absence of deposit formation has a very important safety
related benefit. In discharge air-lines, the combination of rust
particles, dispersed in carbonaceous deposits, coupled with heat
from recently compressed air, can cause an exothermic reaction
leading to the possibility of fires and explosion. Shell Corena S4 P
helps to minimise the likelihood of this danger arising.
OUSTANDING WEAR PROTECTION
sensitive machinery parts (e.g. gears, screws, bearings, from wear
to help and prolong the service intervals).
n Resistant to the formation of carbon deposits and lacquer on
valves and piston crowns, caused by the by-products of corrosion
such as ferric oxides and hydroxides, at high working temperatures
and pressures. Such deposits can cause serious damage, lower
compressor efficiency and increase maintenance costs.
n
Separates
readily from water preventing accelerated corrosion
and facilitating separation from condensate.
APPLICATIONS
RECIPROCATING AIR COMPRESSORS
n All industrial reciprocating air compressors, in particular up to and
above air discharge temperatures of 220°C with continuous high
delivery pressures.
BREATHING AIR COMPRESSORS
n Shell Corena S4 P may be used in breathing air compressors,
provided subsidiary clean-up apparatus is used to ensure that
the air produced is fit for breathing.
MISCIBILITY
n Shell Corena S4 P oils are fully miscible with mineral oils,
although dilution with mineral lubricants will markedly reduce
its performance.

HIGH QUALITY INDUSTRIAL STEAM AND GAS TURBINE OIL
STRONG CONTROL OF OXIDATION
n The use of inherently oxidatively stable base oils together with an
effective inhibitor package provides high resistance to oxidative
degradation. The result is extended oil life, minimising the formation
of aggressive corrosive acids, deposits and sludge, helping to
reduce your operating costs.
HIGH RESISTANCE TO FOAMING AND RAPID AIR
RELEASE
n The oils are formulated with a non-silicone anti-foam additive,
which generally controls foam formation. This feature coupled
with fast air-release from the lubricant reduces the possibility of
problems such as pump cavitation, excessive wear and premature
oil oxidation, helping to give you increased system reliability.
POSITIVE WATER-SHEDDING PROPERTIES
n Robust demulsibility control such that excess water, common-place
in steam turbines, can be drained easily from the lubrication system,
minimising corrosion and premature wear and lowering the risk of
unplanned maintenance.
EXCELLENT RUST AND CORROSION PROTECTION
n Helps prevent the formation of rust and guards against onset of
corrosion ensuring protection for equipment following exposure
to humidity or water during operation and during shut-downs,
minimising maintenance.
RESISTANT TO REACTION WITH AMMONIA
n The use of highly refined base oils and specific additives, resistant
to attack by ammonia, minimises the possibility of damaging oil
soluble/insoluble ammonia compounds being formed in the lubricant.
Shell Turbo Oils T mitigate the formation of these deposits, which
could impair the reliable operation of bearings and seal oil systems.
APPLICATIONS
Shell Turbo Oils T are available in ISO grades 32, 46, 68
and 100 suited for application in the following areas:
n
Non-geared industrial steam turbines.
n
Non-geared light duty gas turbines.
n
Water turbine lubrication.
n
Compressor applications.
n
Numerous applications where strong control over rust
and oxidation is required.
Shell Turbo Oils T have long been regarded as the industry standard turbine oil. Building on this reputation,
Shell Turbo Oils T have been developed to meet the demands of the most modern non-geared steam
turbine systems and light duty gas turbines. Shell Turbo Oils T are formulated from high quality hydrotreated
base oils and a combination of zinc-free additives that provide excellent oxidative stability, protection
against rust and corrosion, low foaming and excellent demulsibility.

SHELL TURBO OIL GT
SHELL TURBO OIL GT
HIGH PERFORMANCE INDUSTRIAL GAS TURBINE LUBRICANT
Shell Turbo Oil GT has been developed for the most severe operating conditions imposed by modern,
heavy-duty industrial gas turbines.
OUTSTANDING OXIDATION STABILITY
n The lubricant’s service life depends, to a great extent, on its
oxidative stability. Excellent results in both the ‘hot oxidation
test’ (FTM5308) and the ‘TOST’ life test (ASTM-D943) clearly
demonstrates Shell Turbo Oil GT potential for extended service life
compared to conventional mineral oil technology.
EXCELLENT THERMAL STABILITY
n Higher bearing temperatures which are particularly severe during
stop/start cycling conditions, may lead to bearing deposits and
the formation of harmful sludge in the system which subsequently
may result in expensive ‘downtime’ and reduce service life of
system components. Shell Turbo Oil GT is formulated to give
greater protection against thermal degradation and hence may
significantly contribute to lower operating and maintenance costs.
EXCELLENT AIR RELEASE CHARACTERISTICS
n Effective air release with a minimum of foaming tendency as required
by modern gas turbines.
APPLICATIONS
POWER AND INDUSTRIAL HEAVY-DUTY GAS
TURBINES
n Shell Turbo Oil GT is used as lubricating oil for main shaft
bearings and mechanical gears as well as governor oil in
the turbine control valves in modern gas turbines.
FURTHER INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS
n Shell Turbo Oil GT may also be used for other industrial
applications requiring a high performance gas turbine oil,
like lubrication of turbo compressors.

materials, although Viton seals are preferred.
CHANGE-OVER PROCEDURE
Shell Omala S4 WE contains polyalkylene glycols and is not
compatible with mineral oils or most other synthetic lubricant types.
Care should be taken when changing from such products to
Shell Omala S4 WE. The system should be flushed with the
minimum quantity of Shell Omala S4 WE, operating under no load
and draining while warm. Ideally, seals exposed to mineral oils
should also be replaced. Inspect the lubricant after a few days use.
Ensure that oil systems are clean and free from contamination.
Shell Omala S4 WE is also not miscible with some other polyalkylene
glycols, so caution is needed when topping-up. Generally the
preference is to avoid mixtures by draining and refilling.

INDUSTRY GREASE
Shell Gadus S3 T100 is a high technology grease designed to give optimum performance for grease
lubrication in industrial bearings. Shell Gadus S3 T100 is based on mineral oil with a special diurea
thickener to give long life, low wear and shear-stable properties at high temperatures.
The use of Shell Gadus S3 T100 usually permits considerable
extension of the re-lubrication interval.
OXIDATION STABILITY
Shell Gadus S3 T100 has a high temperature oxidation inhibitor
system to help ensure that it will withstand high operating
temperatures without forming deposits. Unlike the soap thickeners
used in most greases, the diurea thickener in Shell Gadus S3 T100
does not catalyse grease oxidation, indeed the diurea thickener
offers inherent anti-oxidant properties. This contributes to longer
grease life at higher temperatures.
The base oil component of Shell Gadus S3 T100 is a specially
selected high viscosity index mineral oil with excellent oxidation
and evaporation resistance.
SEALING
The rheology of Shell Gadus S3 T100 is such that at low shear
rates and with heating the consistency increases. Consequently,
in bearings operating at high temperatures the grease remains in
place providing good sealing and continuous lubrication even in the
presence of vibration.
WATER WASHOUT
Shell Gadus S3 T100 exhibits very good resistance to water
washout by immersion or spray.

ADVANCED OPEN GEAR AND WIREROPE LUBRICANT
INDUSTRY GREASE
Shell Gadus S4 OG Clear Oil 20000 is an advanced part-synthetic, non-bitumastic viscous lubricant
specifically developed to satisfy the demands of heavily loaded open gearing.
HIGH VISCOSITY
n The very high viscosity of Shell Gadus S4 OG Clear Oil 20000
has been achieved by combining synthetic oil with thickening
effect and high viscosity mineral oils. The use of synthetic oil with
thickening effect has also produced a lubricant with high viscosity
index, which provides good pumpability at low temperatures
while maintaining high viscosity at elevated temperatures.
For bearings operating near their maximum recommended temperatures,
re-greasing intervals should be reviewed.
CHARACTERISTICS

INDUSTRY GREASE
Shell Gadus S5 T100 Grease is a very high technology grease designed to give optimum performance for
grease lubrication in industrial bearings.
It is based on synthetic oil with a special diurea thickener to give long life, low wear and shear-stable
properties at high temperatures.

n
Excellent wear protection
n
Excellent mechanical stability at high temperatures
n

n
Low oil separation
When a bearing is running, most high quality greases can maintain
an adequate lubricating film even when the grease is contaminated
with water. However, when the grease bearing is idle corrosion
may occur causing pitting which can be detrimental. Shell Gadus
S5 T100 is formulated with corrosion inhibitors to help protect
bearing surfaces even when the grease is contaminated by water.
n
Versatile.
EXCELLENT CORROSION RESISTANCE
n Provides protection from the elements of corrosion.
WATER RESISTANT
n Withstands washing with water, preventing loss of protection.
APPLICATIONS
The lubrication properties of Shell Gadus S5 T100 is unimpaired by
small quantities of salt water.
Grease life varies considerably from application to application,
even with bearings operating under nominally identical conditions.
Variables such as air flow, dirt and humidity can have a considerable
effect in addition to the more commonly recognised parameters of
load, speed and temperature.
Shell Gadus S5 T100 Grease is particularly recommended for use
in high temperature up to 180°C, lightly loaded industrial bearings.
It is recommended for use where long operational life
and extended re-greasing intervals are an important consideration.
The use of Shell Gadus S5 T100 usually permits considerable
extension of the re-lubrication interval.
HIGH TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE
The rheology of Shell Gadus S5 T100 is such that at low shear
rates and with heating the consistency increases. Consequently, in
bearings operating at high temperatures the grease remains in place
providing good sealing and continuous lubrication even in the presence
of vibration.
The diurea thickener used in Shell Gadus S5 T100 has a high
melting point and the grease performance is limited only by the
properties of the base oil and additive components.
The low volatility and excellent oxidation stability of the base oil
are such that they give an excellent service life in bearings
operating between –40°C and 180°C.
With caution, Shell Gadus S5 T100 Grease may, in some
circumstances, be used at temperatures up to 200°C, but
only if the re-lubrication period is suitably adjusted.
SEALING
WATER WASHOUT
Shell Gadus S5 T100 exhibits very good resistance to water
washout by immersion or spray.
CHARACTERISTICS

Colour
Brown
Shell Gadus S5 T100 has a superior high temperature oxidation
inhibitor system to ensure that it will withstand high operating
temperatures without forming deposits. Unlike the soap thickeners
used in most greases, the diurea thickener in Shell Gadus S5 T100
does not catalyse grease oxidation, indeed the diurea thickener
offers inherent anti-oxidant properties. This contributes to longer
grease life at higher temperatures.

HIGH PERFORMANCE HEAT TRANSFER FLUID
PREVIOUSLY SHELL THERMIA B
INDUSTRY HEAT TRANSFER OILS
Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 is based on carefully selected, highly refined mineral oils chosen for their
ability to provide superior performance in indirect closed fluid heat transfer systems.
ADVICE
n Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 is based on carefully selected highly
refined mineral oils and resists oil cracking, oxidation and
thickening. This provides extended oil life, provided efficient fluid
heating and good pump circulation is ensured, such that film
temperatures on the heater surface do not exceed the limits below.
n
life of Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 depends on the design
The
and usage of the system. If the system is well designed and not
subjected to abnormal workloads, the life can be for many years.
n
It is important to monitor oil condition regularly as rates of change
in physical characteristics are more significant than actual values.
The properties that should be monitored are viscosity, acidity, flash
point (open and closed) and insolubles content.
SYSTEM EFFICIENCY
n Low viscosity enables excellent fluidity and heat transfer over
a wide temperature range.
n
Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 also has a low vapour pressure so resists
cracking. This minimises the formation of volatile decomposition
products; these would require recovery via expansion chamber and
condensate collector.
WEAR PROTECTION
n Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 is non-corrosive and has high solvency;
this helps to reduce deposit formation by holding oxidation
products in solution and keeping internal surfaces of heat
exchangers clean.
APPLICATIONS
ENCLOSED CIRCULATED HEAT TRANSFER SYSTEMS
n For industrial applications such as process industry, chemical
plants, textile producers and in household equipment such as oil
filled radiators.
n
Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 can be used in high temperature continuous
heat transfer equipment with the following application limits:
Maximum film temperature = 340°C
Maximum bulk temperature = 320°C

n
Owing to the surface wetting properties of Shell Naturelle HF-E, if
systems were previously operated using a mineral oil hydraulic fluid,
deposits formed in the system during operation may be loosened
and deposited in system filters. The filters should therefore be
checked at regular intervals after fluid changeover.
Shell Naturelle HF-E is compatible with all seal materials and paints
normally specified for use with petroleum mineral oils. Certain
plastics and industrial adhesives may be adversely affected and
advice should be sought from the respective manufacturers.
EXCELLENT VISCOSITY/TEMPERATURE
CHARACTERISTICS
n Minimum change of viscosity with variation in operating
temperature, giving true ‘multigrade’ characteristics.
AND RECOMMENDATIONS
High shear stability ensures effective lubrication and efficient

Shell Naturelle HF-E 46 and 68 are on the ‘Positivliste’ and qualify
for funding under the German ‘Marketing Introduction Programme’
for biolubricants.
EXCELLENT CORROSION PROTECTION
Long-term protection for common construction materials, including
most metals, non-metals and seal materials such as viton and high
nitrile.
The improved anti-wear properties, and naturally high viscosity index
(VI) of Shell Naturelle Fluids HF-E, means that they can often be
used where ISO 11158 (HM/HV) and DIN 51524 Part 2 or Part 3

SHELL VSI 8235 (CONCENTRATE)
PROTECTS AGAINST RUSTING IN ENCLOSED VAPOUR SPACES
INDUSTRY CORROSION PREVENTATIVE
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) is an oil soluble concentrate that has the ability to protect steel surfaces
which are above the normal oil level in a system e.g. the vapour spaces in an oil storage tank or the oil
reservoir in a circulation system.
APPLICATIONS
n
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) is an oil soluble concentrate that has the
ability to protect steel surfaces which are above the normal oil level
in a system – the vapour spaces in an oil storage tank or the oil
reservoir in a circulation system would be examples.
n
n
Shell
VSI 8235 (Concentrate) contains polar materials which
are both oil soluble and also volatile. Thus, as Shell VSI 8235
(Concentrate) is in circulation, the vapour spaces in a system
are continuously kept filled with the VSI vapour which is formed
by these inhibitors and this vapour continuously blankets metal
surfaces to protect them from corrosion.
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) should be added to the lubricant
contained in the sump or in the oil tank a few hours before the
equipment is stopped. For new pieces of equipment which will
be stored after trial, the lubricant/Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate)
mixture could be totally or partially drained out after the trial run
provided however, that a small quantity of mixture is kept in the
sump. If the oil temperature remains lower than 25°C, the distance
between the upper internal surfaces to be protected and the oil
level in the machine must be less than two metres.
anti-corrosion performance of the lubricant/Shell VSI 8235
The
(Concentrate) mixture and the durability of the protection provided
are dependent on the degree of ventilation of the system and the
oil temperature. The performance can be improved by raising the
oil temperature before stopping the equipment and by sealing the
vents of the machine concerned.
n
internal protection of large oil tanks will be improved by
The
brushing or spraying the surfaces to be protected with the
lubricant/Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) mixture.
n
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) has no detrimental effects on the
individual and special properties of the lubricant to which it is
added. The mixture can be used as the service lubricant when the
equipment is returned to or put in operation.
WHEN
SHELL VSI 8235 (CONCENTRATE) IS USED AT
2% VOLUME SOLUTION IN THE SYSTEM OIL
OF EQUIPMENT TO BE PROTECTED, IT:
n Enhances the anti-corrosion performance of the lubricant it is
added to.
n
Provides
corrosion protection of enclosed spaces above the
lubricant level by blanketing the metal surfaces to be protected by
means of volatile corrosion inhibitors.
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) is recommended for use in all
enclosed oil lubrication systems where rusting is likely to occur
because of the presence of steam condensate or atmospheric
moisture in the system.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS ARE:
n Oil lubricated rolling bearing and gear housings, reservoirs,
oil piping, and similar circulation system components.
n
Machine
tool housings where the machines may be idle over
a weekend or for even longer periods of time.
n
Steam
turbine lubrication systems where corrosion of oil gravity
tanks or oil storage tank walls and overheads is occurring.
n
Any
machinery that is actually idle or in intermittent use and which
is therefore susceptible to rusting because the oil in use gradually
drains down from internal surfaces.
RECOMMENDED DOSAGE
Shell VSI 8235 (Concentrate) is recommended for use at 2% volume
solution and is added to the existing oil already in the equipment.
It should not be used at higher concentrations as this may result in
equipment damage.

SHELL ALEXIA S4
SHELL ALEXIA S4
CYLINDER LUBRICANT FOR TWO-STROKE LOW SPEED DIESEL ENGINES
MARINE
Shell Alexia S4 is a wide range cylinder lubricant designed for use in all two-stroke low speed diesel
engines. Shell Alexia S4 is suitable for use with engines burning distillate and residual fuel and has been
engineered to offer excellent performance under all operational conditions such as full power, “slow”
and “flexible” steaming regimes. Shell Alexia S4 has been especially formulated to deal with all aspects
of Oil Stress. Shell Alexia S4 has been particularly designed for the new generation of highly rated,
fuel efficient, low speed marine diesel engines operating with higher pressures, higher temperatures and
longer strokes.
ENGINE PROTECTION
n Shell Alexia S4 offers outstanding acid neutralising properties
which help to prolong the life of components.
n
It has superior deposit control and minimises deposit build up on
pistons, piston rings, ring grooves, under piston spaces and in
cylinder ports.
n
Shell Alexia S4 has been engineered to provide enhanced
boundary lubrication properties resulting in low cylinder and
piston ring wear with typical cylinder wear rates below 0.05 mm
per 1000 hours.
OPERATIONAL SIMPLICITY
n Shell Alexia S4 is a single, all purpose lubricant suitable for use
with distillate* and all types of residual fuel oil. It will also offer
protection from the effects of oil stress under different operating
conditions from full power to flexible operation and slow
steaming.
CYLINDER OIL FEED RATES
n Insufficient cylinder oil feed rates can lead to corrosive wear,
seized and broken rings and consequent blow-by and scavenge
fire risks, and to the formation of excessive deposits.
Shell Alexia S4 has a BN of 60, but has been used at the same
feedrate as a BN 70 cylinder oil in all our field trials.
To obtain optimum performance with Shell Alexia S4 it is
important to:
– Ensure the lubrication system is well maintained and properly
adjusted
– Use AnalexAlert to analyse used oil and seek advice from Shell’s
technical experts for advice on how to optimise oil feed rate.
MIXING OF CYLINDER LUBRICANTS
n Shell Alexia S4 is fully miscible with all other cylinder lubricants.
However, for optimum performance, Shell Alexia S4 should not
be used in conjunction with any other cylinder lubricant.
please consult your local Shell Technical Help Desk, or the OEM
Approvals website.

SHELL STROMBUS MP
EMULSIFIABLE STERN TUBE OIL
MARINE
Shell Strombus MP is designed specifically for oil-filled stern tubes, particularly in the event of leakage.
It is mainly used for the lubrication of stern tube bearings and protection of tail shafts in systems
incorporating lip seal stern tube glands, but also some face seals.
APPLICATIONS
COST EFFECTIVENESS
n Shell Strombus MP absorbs high amounts of seawater. There is no
need to reduce the concentration of seawater emulsified in the oil
until it reaches levels of over 20%.
The large majority of ships today are fitted with oil lubricated stern
tubes. The stern tube bearings and the tail shaft are required to
operate reliably, often in extreme conditions due to vibration, water
ingress, flexing of the vessel’s structure, movement of the vessel in
heavy seas and with variations of speed and temperature.
HELPS MINIMISE RISKS OF WATER INGRESS
n Water is absorbed to form a stable emulsion which continues to
offer good lubrication and protection against corrosion. The oil
and its emulsion are sufficiently fluid to circulate around the stern
tube bearing oil system.
HIGH LEVEL OF PROTECTION
n Its unique combination of base oils and carefully selected
additives, give good emulsibility while offering a high level of
protection to the metal surfaces, in the presence of water.
Shell Strombus MP is specifically designed to be compatible with
diesel engine oils used for stern tube lubrication. It is also suitable for
the lubrication of the fin shafts of certain retractable stabilisers.

OFFERING YOU PEACE OF MIND
www.shell.com/marine
Shell Marine Products offers all its customers worldwide a complete range of oil analysis services,
giving you peace of mind that your lubricants are doing their job and helping ensure your engines and
machinery do not suffer unexpected problems.
By testing the lubricants in your machinery we can reveal critical
information about the health of your equipment, helping you:
n
Detect possible future mechanical problems before they occur.
n
Avoid unexpected breakdowns and expensive down time.
n
Retain the oil charge until it really needs changing.
n
Develop a greater understanding of equipment performance.
n
Reduce monitoring and maintenance costs.
No wonder Classification Societies, such as Lloyds Register, endorse
regular analysis of used oil as a significant factor in the long-term
health of machinery.
INFORMATION YOU NEED TO KNOW
Lubricants are an integral part of your engines and machinery. But
their ability to lubricate and clean is heavily dependent on their
condition. And because they are in intimate contact with the most
highly stressed components, lubricants carry a lot of information that
can help you reduce the risk of sudden breakdowns.
The Shell Rapid Lubricants Analyst
(RLA) service is designed to give
ship managers and operators vital
information and advice on the
condition of their lubricants and
machinery-quickly, efficiently and
reliably, with minimum effort from
their staff.
UNRIVALLED EXPERIENCE
We believe Shell RLA is the longest-established and most thorough
lubricants analysis service available in the industry, and, with
thousands of customers around the world reliant on the Shell RLA
service, we are proud of the depth and breadth of our knowledge
and experience. In particular, the regular submission of samples
over the years has enabled us to establish historical data trends that
enable our experts to readily determine whether particular results are
normal.
RAPID RESPONSE
We have four laboratories worldwide and we use highly automated
test methods linked directly to a central data processor. This means
all Shell RLA results are supplied quickly, efficiently and reliably.
In the event of any abnormal results being detected, we send you
emergency advice immediately.
EXPERIENCE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
All sample reports detected as abnormal are received by our own
team of specialist diagnosticians. The team are all experienced
marine engineers who understand the shipboard operations and
how it can impact machinery operation. This enables them to give
well founded advice on the oil and machine condition.
CLEAR REPORTS THROUGH SHELL RLA OPICA
All our reports have a simple, clear layout so you can quickly and
easily understand the results, comments and any necessary advice.
Our tool, Shell RLA Opica, stores and manages Shell RLA data so
users can analyse trends and problems more thoroughly than ever
before. With historical data going back more than 20 years, and
the international backup of Shell’s experienced analysts, the answer

Only a 50ml sample is required, making it easy to airmail samples
directly to the laboratory – we even supply the sampling bottles,
labels and pre-addressed envelopes!
SHELL ONBOARD PLUS
This extensive kit tests five important parameters of lubricating
oil performance, including water in oil, insoluble material, TBN,
viscosity, and salt water contamination. We have designed Shell
Onboard Plus to supplement the comprehensive laboratory based
oil analysis service provided by Shell RLA. Although the results will
not be as accurate as those obtained from a Shell laboratory, they
will help to confirm instantly that the oils are in good condition, and
that your equipment is well protected.

SHELL ANALEXALERT
WEAR PARTICLE INDEX
Wear Particle Index (WPI) helps us to tell you more about
your machine, regardless of type. From super clean
hyrdrualic power systems to the hardest working diesel
engines, WPI can make the difference between timely
shut down or costly breakdown.
WPI is derived from a test that measures the amount of
paramagnetic material in a sample.The most common
paramagnetic material found in oil samples from marine
machinery is iron, therefore WPI correlates very closely to
the metallic iron content in a sample regardless of particle
size.
FIVE SIMPLE STEPS TO PEACE OF MIND
If the WPI increases at a rate greater than normal
compared to Fe by ICP spectroscopy, this indicates
increasing quantities of iron particles with sizes greater
than three microns. This should be taken as a warning that
abnormal wear may be occuring in the machine.
If the WPI increases at a rate less than normal compared
to iron by spectroscopy, this indicates the presence of
non-metallic iron. Corrosion salts and most iron oxides are
non-magnetic.

APPENDIX 1
STORING LUBRICANTS
Packages containing lubricants should, whenever possible, be stored
under cover where they will not be exposed to the effects of the weather.
Small packages such as tins should always be kept in covered storage,
as should any package, whatever its size, once it has been opened
and its contents partially used. When the outside storage of unopened
drums is unavoidable, certain simple precautions must be observed.
When oil is stored in bulk it is probable that water or condensation
will accumulate and fine dust find its way into the tanks with the
result that, eventually, a layer of sludge-like material builds up at the
bottom of the tanks and leads, in time, to contamination of the oil.
Consequently, it is advisable to have storage tanks fitted with dished
or sloping bottoms provided with drain cocks, which will enable
dregs to be drawn off periodically. Where practicable, bulk storage
tanks should periodically be cleaned out.
The drums should preferably be stored on their sides with bungs at
3 o’clock and 9 o’clock and wooden dunnage or runners should
be used to keep them clear of the ground and to prevent rusting of
the undersides. They should never be stacked directly on a surface
containing clinker, which is particularly corrosive to metal. The
drums at each end of a stack must be securely wedged to prevent
movement. Regular inspection should be carried out with a view to
the detection of leaks and to make sure that identification markings
remain clear and legible.
Insofar as greases are concerned, the drums must, of necessity, have
a large opening and, to avoid as far as possible the entry of dirt and
water, it is important that the lid or cover should always be replaced
firmly and securely as soon as requirements have been taken.
If, for any reason, drums have to be stored on their ends, they
should be raised off the ground and stored upside down (i.e. with
the bungs at the bottom). Failing this, they should be tilted so that
rain water cannot collect round and submerge the bungs. Water
contamination is undesirable, whatever the grade of lubricant, and
it is not always realised that moisture can enter a drum through what
appears to be a perfectly sound bung.
The benefits of good, clean storage can be largely nullified if a
lubricant becomes contaminated in transit from the store to the
machines. The containers used for transporting lubricants on a site
and for the storage of small working quantities must be kept clean
and should be provided with lids to prevent the entry of dust and
dirt. They should be washed periodically with petrol, care being
taken to mop and dry them before using them again.
A drum standing in the open is subjected to the heat of the day and,
of course, cools down again at night. This results in expansion and
contraction of the contents with the effect that the air in the space
above the oil level is subjected, during the day, to slightly higher
than atmospheric pressure and, at night, to slight vacuum. These
changes in pressure may be sufficiently great to cause a pumping
action, known as breathing, in which air is forced out the drum
during the day and drawn into it at night. If, therefore, the bungs
through which this breathing takes place are surrounded by water,
some of this water may be sucked into the drum and, in the course
of time, quite considerable quantities may accumulate.
Similarly, funnels and other pieces of apparatus must always be kept
scrupulously clean, rags and wipers being used for this purpose.
Cotton waste or woollen rags should not be used as they tend to leave
behind fibres which will eventually find their way into machinery and
impair the flow of oil.
Once the seals have been broken and packages have been opened,
there is always a danger that, unless the packages are kept properly
closed when not in use, impurities such as dust, sand and fibre may
enter them. Such contaminants, eventually finding their way into
machinery, can cause damage or abrasion or, by blocking oilways,
can result in a complete breakdown due to lack of lubrication.
An oil drum, or other package, should never be opened by cutting
a large hole in it or by completely removing one end, since, even if
the hole is kept covered by, for example, a wooden or metal lid, the
chances of contamination are greatly increased. Similarly, it is a bad
practice to dip an open container into the oil since, not only does this
allow dust to enter, but the outside of the dipper itself may be dirty.
Drums of oil should, therefore, be placed on their sides on wooden
cradles of convenient height and the oil dispensed by means of a
tap under which a drip tray is placed. Alternatively, a drum may be
stood on its end and the oil withdrawn by means of a hand pump,
the pump intake being inserted into the large bung-hole.
Extremes of temperature are not good for lubricants. They should not
be stored in any unduly warm place; equally, it is not wise to leave
them for long periods in conditions of extreme cold.
HANDLING LUBRICANTS
It is advisable to have separate, clearly marked containers of each
grade of oil or grease so the contamination of one with another
does not take place.
Used and dirty oil should be put into special containers and stored
in separate, clearly labelled receptacles unit until disposed of. Every
precaution must be taken to see that used lubricants are not allowed
to contaminate fresh oils and greases.
In general, cleanliness precautions are even more important with
grease than with oil. There is always the chance that impurities in oil
may sink to the bottom of the tank or container out of harm’s way;
with grease this cannot happen and any grit or other contaminant
which gets into the grease is bound to find its way into lubricators
and machinery sooner or later.
Grease is more susceptible than oil to the effects of temperature
and temperature cyclings. High temperature or prolonged exposure
to even moderately high temperatures (e.g. tropical sunshine) may
cause oil to separate out with the result that the grease loses some
of its lubricating properties. Petrolatum (petroleum jelly) and certain
types of grease can be made liquid by heating and, on cooling,
will regain their former condition; but these are exceptions and most
greases will be ruined if treated in this way. Never, therefore, heat a
grease to make it fluid.

APPENDIX 1
Each operator should know which grades of lubricant are recommended
for the equipment in his/her charge and supplies of the correct lubricants
and the handling equipment should be readily available to him.
Increased consumption is quite often the first sign that a machine is
in need of repair, or that its lubricating system requires adjustments;
on the other hand, it may mean over-lubrication by the operator.
PERSONAL HYGIENE
Shell lubricants are quite safe to use provided ordinary care is taken to
minimise skin contamination and to avoid breathing oil mist or vapours.
However, prolonged improper use can cause dermatitis or other skin
conditions or even, where heavy contamination occurs over many
years, skin cancer.
Those at risk are people who use oils every day over periods of
months or years, not those who work with oils only very occasionally.
The risks can be avoided by carrying out the following simple health
precautions.For advice contact a Poisons Information Centre:

SPECIAL OILS AND COMPOUNDS
The types of oil which have been associated overseas with skin
disorders appear to be those which have been lightly refined and
which contain relatively more polynuclear aromatic compounds. Oils
of this type are used in rubber processing. Particular care should be
taken in these cases.
WHEN WORKING REGULARLY WITH MINERAL OILS
FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE RULES
REDUCE skin contamination by mineral oils to the minimum and
n
avoid breathing their mists or vapours.
n PROTECT the skin by using suitable clothing and barrier creams.
n CLEAN the skin thoroughly if contaminated with oil.
n
CARE for the skin properly.
n
WEAR clean intact clothes.
AVOIDING CONTACT WITH MINERAL OILS
Contact with mineral oils should be kept to a minimum by
using effective splash guards and correct work methods. Good
maintenance should be practised so as to avoid oil-soaked
floors or benches.
Where cutting oils are used, these should be changed at
regular intervals to minimise contamination with abrasive metal
particles or bacteria. To keep circulating oil as free as possible
of abrasive particles, filter and sumps should be regularly
inspected and cleaned out.
Minimise mist and vapour generation. If this cannot be done,
use proper ventilation to keep the breathing zone concentration of
oil mist below the recommended maximum concentration in air of
5mg per cubic metre of air.
As lubricants are dispensed, the quantities should be measured and
a record maintained. Store room records should show the quantities
issued and the records should be kept for each machine or unit. By
this means, regular checks can be made on consumptions and any
marked changes noted. These should be investigated at once.
APPENDIX 1
The lubrication of machinery should be supervised by a responsible
person and should be made a routine procedure. For instance,
when a machine requires oil-can applications daily, it should
become routine to do this job each morning before commencing
to use the machine. Where grease lubrication is called for weekly,
this should be done, for instance, first thing Monday morning or last
thing before shutting down for the weekend.
PERSONAL PROTECTION
To minimise skin contamination by oils, wear protective gloves
and aprons and suitable outer overalls. Where soluble oil
concentrates are used, wear goggles or face visors.
Protective clothing should be cleaned at regular intervals to
remove oil. It is most important to avoid wearing oil-soaked
clothing, and hands should be cleaned with disposable wipes
which should not be kept in overall or trouser pockets after use.
Gloves can become contaminated on the inside and when
worn again they bring the skin into close and repeated contact
with oil. A system of regular and frequent changing and cleaning
of all protective clothing is the best safeguard.
Where contamination with mineral oils occurs regularly at work,
for example, when using soluble cutting oils with high-speed
machinery, it is necessary to give more rigorous attention to
adequate laundering and regular changes of clothing and
underclothing. To avoid soiling of clean clothing, contaminated
clothing should be stored separately from clean clothing.
CLEANSING THE SKIN
Oil should not be left on the skin for any prolonged period of
time, particularly if mineral oils are used every day at work.
Skin contaminated with oil should be cleaned with mild soap
or suitable hand cleansers at regular intervals, and particularly
at the end of a working day.
Strong soaps and detergents, and abrasive skin cleansers
should be avoided as these themselves can cause skin irritation.
Solvents such as petrol, kerosene, trichloroethane and similar
fluids should not be used for cleaning oil off the skin.
BARRIER AND RESTORATIVE CREAMS
The natural oils in the skin which form a protective barrier are
often removed by the regular washing needed in industry. The
natural protective barrier can be replaced to a certain extent
by using a good barrier cream before work and a good
hydrophilic skin cream containing lanoline or vegetable oils
after finally washing the hands at the end of the work period.
CARE OF THE SKIN
Where any sign of irritation or rash appears on the skin,
medical attention should be sought at the earliest opportunity.

VISCOSITY CLASSIFICATION
The ISO viscosity classification uses mm2/s units and relates to
o
viscosity at 40 C. It consists of a series of 18 viscosity brackets
between 1.98 mm2/s and 1650 mm2/s, each of which is defined
by a number. The numbers indicate to the nearest whole number,
the mid-points of their corresponding brackets. For example, ISO
viscosity grade 32 relates to the viscosity bracket 28.8 mm2/s to
35.2 mm2/s, the mid point of which is 32.0 mm2/s. This is illustrated
in the table below, which shows the ISO viscosity grade numbers,
the mid-points of each bracket, and the viscosity limits.
This system is now used to classify all shell industrial lubricating oils
where viscosity is an important criterion in the selection of the oil.

AGMA SPECIFICATIONS FOR GEAR
LUBRICANTS
The commonly used grease consistency classification is that
established in the USA many years ago by the National Lubricating
Grease Institute (NLGI). This classifies greases solely in terms of
their hardness or softness; no other property or performance level is
taken into consideration.
The American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) have issued
specifications and recommendations for gear lubricants used in
various types of gear application. AGMA Standard 250.04 details
specifications for rust and oxidation inhibited (R and O) and
extreme pressure (EP) lubricants used in enclosed gear drives.
The classification consists of a series of consistency range, each of
which is defined by a number (or numbers) 000 to 6. The consistency
is defined by the distance in tenths of a millimetre, that a standard
cone penetrates a sample of the grease under standard conditions
at 25°C. This system is used to classify Shell industrial greases.
The viscosity brackets correspond to those given in ASTM D 2422
‘Standard Recommended Practice for Viscosity System for Industrial
Fluid Lubricants’.
Oils marked ‘comp’ are compounded with 3 to 10% fatty material.
The AGMA Standard 251.02 details specifications for three types
of open gear lubricants – rust and oxidation inhibited (R and O),
extreme pressure (EP) and residual type gear oils. In this case the
viscosity brackets for the higher viscosity grades are measured at
100°C.

ENGINE OIL LUBRICANT CLASSIFICATIONS
SAE J300 JANUARY 2009 (ENGINE OILS)
The most widely used system for engine oil viscosity classification is
that established by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) in the
USA.
In this system two series of viscosity grades are defined – those
containing the letter W and those without the letter W.
Grades with the letter W are intended for use at lower temperatures
and are based on a maximum low temperature viscosity and a
maximum borderline pumping temperature, as well as a minimum
viscosity at 100°C. The low temperature viscosity is measured by
means of a multi-temperature version of ASTM D2602 ‘Method of
Test for apparent Viscosity of Motor Oils at Low temperature using the
Cold Cranking Simulator’.
Viscosities measured by this method have been found to correlate
with engine speeds developed during low temperature cranking.
Borderline pumping temperature is measured according to ASTM
D3829 ‘Standard Method for Predicting the Borderline Pumping
Temperature of Engine Oil’. This provides a measure of an oils’ ability
to flow to the engine oil pump inlet and provide adequate engine oil
pressure during the initial stages of operation.
Oils without the letter W, intended for use at higher temperatures,
are based on the viscosity at 100°C only. These are measured by
ASTM D445 ‘Method of Test for Kinematic Viscosity of temperature
and Opaque Liquids’.
A ‘multi-grade’ oil is one whose low temperature viscosity and
borderline temperature satisfy the requirements of one of the W
grades and whose viscosity at 100°C is within the stipulated range
of one-W-grades.

The classification is based on the lubricant viscosity measured at
low and/or high temperatures. The high temperatures values are
determined according to method ASTM D 445. The low temperature
values are determined according to method ASTM D 2983
‘Method of Test for Apparent Viscosity at Low Temperature using
the Brookfield Viscometer’ and are measured in mPa.s (c.P).
Multi-grade oil satisfies the viscosity requirements of one of the W
grades at low temperatures and one of the non-W grades at high
temperature.
It should be noticed that there is no relationship between the SAE
engine oil and gear oil classifications. A gear lubricant and an
engine oil having the same viscosity will have widely different SAE
grade designation as defined in the two classifications.

API SERVICE CLASSIFICATIONS
(ENGINE CRANKCASE OILS)
The American Petroleum Institute (API) Engine Service Classification
was developed as a result of a co-operative effort in the USA
between the API, the American Society for Testing and Materials
(ASTM) and the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE). The tripartite
was developed to form a means of communication between the
engine manufacturers and lubricants suppliers.
The system defines classes of service for both petrol and diesel
engine applications as well as stipulating the accepted engine
laboratory tests.
The letter ‘S’ (Service Station Classification) is designated for
spark ignition engines (petrol engines) in passenger cars and
light commercial vehicles. For compression ignition engines
(diesel engines), the letter ‘C’ (Commercial Classifications) has
been designated. The following is a brief summary of the API
classifications.
API BASE OIL DEFINITIONS
Group I base stocks contain less than 90% saturates and/or greater
than 0.03% sulphur and have viscosity index greater than or equal
to 80 and less than 120.
Group II base stocks contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates
and less than or equal to 0.03% sulphur and have viscosity index
greater than or equal to 80 and less than 120.
Group III base stocks contain greater than or equal to 90% saturates
and less than or equal to 0.03% sulphur and have viscosity index
greater than or equal to 120.
Group IV base stocks are polyalphaolefins (PAO).
Group V base stocks include all other base stocks not included in
Group I, II, III or IV.

Introduced in 2006. For high-speed, four-stroke engines designed to meet 2007 model year on-highway
exhaust emission standards. CJ-4 oils are compounded for use in all applications with diesel fuels ranging
in sulfur content up to 500ppm (0.05% by weight). However, use of these oils with greater than 15ppm
(0.0015% by weight) sulfur fuel may impact exhaust aftertreatment system durability and/or oil drain
interval. CJ-4 oils are effective at sustaining emission control system durability where particulate filters and
other advanced aftertreatment systems are used. Optimum protection is provided for control of catalyst
poisoning, particulate filter blocking, engine wear, piston deposits, low and high-temperature stability, soot
handling properties, oxidative thickening, foaming, and viscosity loss due to shear. API CJ-4 oils exceed the
performance criteria of API CI-4 with CI-4 PLUS, CI-4, CH-4, CG-4 and CF-4 and can effectively lubricate
engines calling for those API Service Categories. When using CJ-4 oil with higher than 15ppm sulfur fuel,
consult the engine manufacturer for service interval.
Introduced in 2002. For high-speed, four-stoke engines designed to meet 2004 exhaust emission
standards implemented in 2002. CI-4 oils are formulated to sustain engine durability where exhaust
gas recirculation (EGR) is used and are intended for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulphur content up
to 0.5% weight. Can be used in place of CD, CE, CF-4, CG-4 and CH-4 oils. Some CI-4 oils may also
qualify for the CI-4 PLUS designation.
Introduced in 1998. For high-speed, four-stroke engines designed to meet 1998 exhaust emission
standards. CH-4 oils are specifically compounded for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulphur context up
to 0.5% weight. Can be used in place of CD, CE, CF-4 and CG-4 oils.
Introduced in 1995. For severe duty, high-speed, four-stroke engines using fuel with less than 0.5%
weight sulphur. CG-4 oils are required for engines meeting 1994 emission standards. Can be used in

API SERVICE CLASSIFICATIONS
The most important internationally accepted system defining
automotive gear oil performance characteristics is laid down by the
American Petroleum Institute (API).
API GL-1
Designates the type of service characteristics of automotive
spiral-bevel and worm gear axles and some manually operated
transmissions operating under such mild conditions of low unit
pressures and sliding velocities that a non-additive mineral oil
can be used satisfactorily. Oxidation and rust inhibitors, anti-foam
additives and pour point depressants may be utilised to improve the
characteristics of lubricant for this service. Does not contain friction
modifiers and extreme-pressure agents.
API GL-2 (OBSOLETE)
Designates the type of service characteristics of automotivetype worm gear axles operating under such conditions of load,
temperature and sliding velocities that lubricants satisfying API
GL-1 service will not suffice. Products suited for this type of service
contain anti-wear or very mild extreme pressure agents that provide
protection for worm gears.
ILSAC STANDARD FOR PASSENGER CAR ENGINE OILS
API GL-3 (OBSOLETE)
Designates the type of service characteristics of manual
transmissions and spiral-bevel axles operating under moderately
sever conditions of speed and load. These service conditions
require a lubricant having load carrying capacity greater than that
which will satisfy API GL-1 service, but below the requirements of
lubricants satisfying API GL-4 service. Lubricants designated for
this service typically contain additives that are active at the tooth
surface at the temperatures resulting from high-speed or load.
API GL-4 (OBSOLETE)
Designates the type of service characteristics of gears in manual
transmissions operating under sever conditions of sliding speed,
particularly spiral bevel and hypoid gears in moderate service, in
passenger cars and other automotive-type equipment operated
under high speed/low torque and low speed/high torque
conditions.
API GL-5
Designates the type of service characteristics of gears particularly
hypoid, in passenger cars and other automotive equipment
operated under high-speed/shock load, high-speed/low-torque,
and low-speed/high-torque conditions. Equivalent to MIL-L2105D, this category is mainly applicable to axles but may also
be used for certain manual transmissions.
