Manufacturer's description

Shell Tellus S2 M are high-performance hydraulic fluids that use Shell's unique patented technology to deliver outstanding protection and operating performance for most mobile and manufacturing equipment. They resist mechanical stress and help prevent the formation of harmful deposits that can reduce hydraulic system efficiency.

Applications

  • Industrial hydraulic systemsApproved and recommended by a wide range of equipment manufacturers, Shell Tellus S2 M fluids are suitable for a wide range of hydraulic system applications found in manufacturing and industrial environments.
  • Mobile hydraulic power transmission systemsShell Tellus S2 M fluids can be used effectively in mobile hydraulic applications such as excavators and cranes, except where significant ambient temperature variations occur. For these applications, we recommend the products in the Shell Tellus "V" range.
  • Marine hydraulic systemsSuitable for marine applications where ISO HM category hydraulic fluids are recommended. influencing factors

Performance & benefits

  • Long service life – reduced maintenance: Shell Tellus S2 M fluids help extend equipment maintenance intervals through their resistance to thermal and chemical breakdown. This minimises deposit formation and delivers excellent performance in the industry-standard ASTM D943 TOST (Turbine Oil Stability Test), providing better system reliability and cleanliness. Shell Tellus S2 M fluids also have good stability in the presence of moisture, which ensures a long fluid life and reduces the risk of corrosion and rusting, particularly in humid environments
  • Outstanding wear protection: Zinc-based anti-wear additives are incorporated to ensure proven effectiveness under all operating conditions, including low-load and heavy-load conditions. Outstanding performance in a series of piston and vane pump tests, including the Denison T6C test (dry and wet versions) and Vickers 35VQ25, demonstrates how Shell Tellus S2 M fluids can help system components last longer
  • Maintaining system efficiency: Superior cleanliness, excellent filterability and outstanding water separation, air release and anti-foam characteristics all help maintain or increase the efficiency of hydraulic systems. The unique additive system in Shell Tellus S2 M, combined with a superior degree of cleanliness (meeting the requirements of ISO 4406 21/19/16 or better, e.g. at Shell filling lines; as recognised by the DIN 51524 specification, the oil is exposed to various influences).

  • ISO 11158 HM

    Hydraulic oil, type H HM — ISO 11158

    The international standard for mineral hydraulic fluids; class HM is the antiwear oil, the ISO counterpart of DIN 51524-2 HLP.

  • ASTM D 6158 HM

    ASTM D6158, type HM — antiwear hydraulic oil

    The American standard for mineral hydraulic oils of type HM, that is, oils with antiwear additives. It is the ASTM counterpart of DIN 51524-2 HLP and ISO 11158 HM.

  • DIN 51524-2 HLP

    Hydraulic oil HLP — DIN 51524, part 2

    Part 2 of the German hydraulic fluid standard: HLP oils — mineral oils with oxidation, corrosion and antiwear additives. It is the most widely quoted reference in industrial hydraulics.

  • SS 15 54 34 AM

    SS 15 54 34 — environmental requirements for hydraulic fluids (Sweden)

    The Swedish standard requiring high biodegradability, low aquatic toxicity, and that the finished fluid not be classified as environmentally hazardous. It is required near groundwater and drinking water sources; verified products appear on the "SP list".

  • GB 11118.1 L-HM

    GB 11118.1 L-HM — hydraulic oil (China)

    The Chinese national standard for hydraulic fluids; class L-HM is the antiwear oil, with a high-pressure variant.
