Manufacturer's description

Advanced Synthetic Industrial Gear Oil. Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 is an advanced synthetic heavy duty industrial gear oil, approved by Flender, offering outstanding lubrication performance under severe operating conditions, including reduced friction, long service life, high resistance to micro-pitting for optimal gear protection and superb compatibility with seals.

Applications

• Gear motor systems and other inaccessible installationsShell Omala S4 GXV 150 is particularly recommended for certain systems where extra long life is required, maintenance is infrequent or systems are inaccessible.
• Excellent compatibility with seals, paints and sealantsRecommended for industrial reduction gear systems using a wide range of seals, including nitrile rubber and fluoro- elastomers. Meets the demanding requirements of Flender gearboxes and gear motors.
• Enclosed industrial gear systemsRecommended for industrial reduction gear systems operating under severe operating conditions, such as high load, very low or elevated temperatures and wide temperature variations.
• Other applicationsShell Omala S4 GXV 150 is suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splash- lubricated systems. For highly loaded worm drives the Shell Omala “W”series oils are recommended. For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.

Performance & benefits

• Long oil life - maintenance savingShell Omala S4 GXV 150 is formulated using an advanced additive system in combination with specially selected synthetic base fluids to provide outstanding resistance to breakdown over long duration and/or high temperature operation. Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 can operate successfully at bulk temperatures up to 120 0 C. Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 offers the potential to significantly extend service intervals compared to conventional industrial gear oils.
• Excellent wear and corrosion protectionShell Omala S4 GXV 150 is formulated to have excellent load carrying capacity and micro-pitting performance providing long component life even under shock loading conditions. These features provide benefits over mineral oil-based products in terms of gear and bearing component life. Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 also has excellent corrosion protection, even in the presence of contamination by water and solids.
• Maintaining system efficiencyShell Omala S4 GXV 150 can help maintain or enhance the efficiency of industrial gear systems through improved low temperature performance and lower friction in comparison to mineral oil-based products. This provides better lubrication at low start-up temperatures.
• The product meets or exceeds the following industry standards
