Shell Tellus Oils T
Premium hydraulic oil for wide temperature ranges
Premium performance, anti-wear hydraulic oils which incorporate a special viscosity index improver additive to enhance their viscosity/temperature
characteristics.
Applications
* Hydraulic and fluid power transmission systems subjected to wide variations in temperature or where low viscosity
change with fluctuating temperature is required.
Certain critical hydraulic systems can only tolerate small variations in viscosity with fluctuating temperature if efficiency and
responsiveness are to be maintained.Hydraulic oils, such as Shell Tellus Oil T, which exhibit multigrade viscosity characteristics may
be used to particular advantage in these circumstances.
Performance Features
* Very low viscosity variation with temperature
Special viscosity index technology minimises the oil's variation in viscosity with changes in temperature and provides
good pumpability at low temperatures.These features are particularly beneficial in hydraulic applications subjected to extremes of temperature.
* High shear stability
The 'VI' improver type is highly resistant to mechanical stress.
* Outstanding anti-wear performance
Proven anti-wear additives are effective in all operating conditions, including low and severe duty, high load situations.
* Excellent filterability
Minimal tendency to cause filter blockage in the presence of contaminants such as water and calcium.
* Oxidation resistant
Resist the formation of acidic products and sludge, even at high working temperatures.
* Corrosion protection
Provides long term protection against corrosion of both ferrous and non-ferrous metals.
* Rapid air release and anti-foam properties
Provide air release without excessive foaming.
Compatibility
The anti-wear additive technology used in Shell Tellus Oils T is based upon zinc which,although ideal for most hydraulic pumps,
should not be used in those of older design containing silver-plated components. Shell Tellus Oils S should be used for these applications.
Seal & Paint Compatibility
Shell Tellus Oils T are compatible with all seal materials and paints normally specified for use with mineral oils.
Health & Safety
Guidance on Health and Safety are available on the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet which can be obtained from your Shell
representative.
Protect the environment
Take used oil to an authorised collection point.Do not discharge into drains, soil or water.
