Applications
Shell Tellus S3 M hydraulic fluids are high performance lubricants that use exclusive ashless technology to provide outstanding protection and performance in most manufacturing and many mobile equipment operations. They resist breakdown under heat or mechanical stress, helping to prevent damaging deposits that can decrease the efficiency of your hydraulic system.
- Manufacturing and industrial hydraulic systems
- Severe duty hydraulic service
- Marine and mobile hydraulic systems
- Environmental impact
-
Shell Tellus S3 M fluids are suitable for a wide range of hydraulic power applications found in manufacturing and industrial environments.
The long-life characteristics of Shell Tellus S3 M fluids can make them particularly suitable for severe duty (e.g. load, temperature) applications or where extended life is required (e.g. remote or inaccessible locations).
Shell Tellus S3 M fluids are suitable for marine and mobile applications where ISO HM type hydraulic fluids are recommended.
Shell Tellus S3 M has a reduced environmental impact in the event of a leak or accidental spillage compared to conventional zinc-based hydraulic fluids. This is achieved through the use of ashless anti-wear technology and low sulphur base oils.
For further reductions in environmental impact, we offer the Shell Naturelle range of environmentally considerate lubricants.
Shell Tellus S3 M fluids are compatible with seal materials and paints normally specified for use with mineral oils.
