Applications

 N/A Industrial Hydraulic Systems - Particularly suitable for those systems with high intensity of hydraulic power usage such as injection molding and high pressure metal pressing operations and where resistance to high temperatures or long oil life is required.

Mobile Hydraulic Systems - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 is also suitable for use in certain mobile hydraulic fluid power transmission systems and in marine applications and provides superior low temperature fluidity compared to most conventional ISO HM type fluids.

Features and Benefits

 N/A Energy Efficiency - With the help of sophisticated system modelling, Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 has been designed to improve the energy efficiency of hydraulic systems through a specially developed formulation that balances the flow, frictional and power transmission characteristics of the fluid. Carefully monitored field evaluations have shown typical savings of 1-4% in such applications.

Reduce Maintenance Costs - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 offers outstanding performance in all the properties relevant to a hydraulic pump wear and resistance to breakdown in contact with water or other contaminants Together with an oil life that exceeds the 10,000 hours maximum duration that can be measured in the industry Turbine Oil Stability Test (TOST), Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 offers you the capability to significantly extend oil change intervals, which can help reduce overall maintenance costs.

Greater Equipment Protection - In addition to meeting standard industry and OEM specification requirement, Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 provide an exceptional level of additonal protection. For instance, Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 results in up to 68% less wear in the Vickers V104C pump wear test than the 50 mg pass/fail limits for many OEMs such as Cincinnati Machine (P-Specification), Bosch-Rexroth (RD 90220-1) and Eaton (Vickers). Superior cleanliness (meeting the requirements if ISO 4406 21/19/16 class or better ex Shell filling plants. As recogonized by DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences with transport and storage that could effect the cleanliness level). Together with outstanding protection against sludge build up, valve sticking and corrosion, it can help prolong the life of your hydraulic equipment.

Environmental Impact - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 provides a reduced environmental impact in the case of leakage or accidental spillage compared to conventional zinc-based hydraulic fluids through the use of ashless anti-wear technology and low sulfur base oils. For further reductions in environmental impact, we offer the Shell Naturelle range of reduced environmental impact lubricants.

Note

 N/A Compatibility - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 is suitable for use with most hydraulic pumps.

Fluid Compatibility - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 is compatible with most other mineral oil based hydraulic fluids. However, mineral oil hydraulic fluids should not be mixed with other fluid types (e.g. environmentally acceptable or fire resistant fluids).

Seal & Paint Compatibility - Shell Tellus S4 ME 46 is compatible with seal materials and paints normally specified for use with mineral oils.
