A SYNTHETIC FLUID TO HELP ENHANCE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM EFFICIENCY

Shell Tellus S4 ME uses advanced, ashless, synthetic technology and is designed to help deliver value to your business. Proved to improve energy efficiency, it has the ability to increase oil life by up to four times compared with conventional oils in the Shell range and to prolong equipment life by enhancing hydraulic pump wear protection. In addition, its reduced environmental impact (low toxicity towards aquatic life) can help progressive operators to manage the environmental impact of their operations.

IMPROVED CLEANLINESS

All Shell Tellus products now meet the demanding cleanliness requirements of the DIN industry standard to help provide extra protection, improved filter performance and less maintenance.

Designed to protect

Protecting components from damage can help to increase service life and maximise your return on investment. Shell Tellus S4 ME can help to achieve this by providing

• up to 89% less wear than the maximum allowed in the industry-standard hydraulic pump tests.

Enhanced protection formulation

• Synthetic base oils for excellent viscosity control
• Enhanced flow properties at lower temperatures
• Advanced, ashless anti-wear additives
• Demonstrated exceptional wear control

Designed for long oil life

Limiting fluid degradation can help to prolong oil life. Shell Tellus S4 ME is designed to help you operate your equipment for longer without interruption – for reduced maintenance requirements and enhanced productivity. In the industry-standard oil life test, Shell Tellus S4 ME achieved

• over 10 times longer oil life than the industry minimum.

Designed for high efficiency

A hydraulic fluid needs to protect, lubricate and transmit power efficiently. Shell Tellus S4 ME is designed to help maximise productivity by helping equipment to meet or exceed its design capabilities. Compared with the industry minimum requirements, it offers

• up to 69% faster filtration to help reduce pressure loss across the filter for more efficient operation.

Proved to improve efficiency

• Statistically validated energy efficiency savings in industrial applications with intensive hydraulic power use
• Can help to improve machine speed and productivity
• Exceptional air release and other efficiency performance measures

SPECIFICATIONS AND APPROVALS

Shell Tellus S4 ME meets the requirements of a wide range of industry bodies and equipment manufacturers. ISO viscosity grades available: 22, 32, 46, 68.

Real-world value delivery

Shell Tellus S4 ME has unlocked operational improvements in a range of applications. For instance, some customers have

• increased productivity by up to 3%
• significantly reduced their fluid and machine maintenance
• improved the energy efficiency of hydraulic systems. In a carefully controlled test cycle, one injection moulding equipment maker measured energy savings of up to 6.4%1 in the hydraulic systems in which Shell Tellus S4 ME was used.
