Formerly marketed as: Shell Corena P
Global Product Code: 001D7778
Application:
Shell Corena S2 P 68 is a high-performance air compressor lubricant developed for use in reciprocating (piston-type) air compressors operating at discharge temperatures of up to 220°C. It is also suitable for breathing air compressors provided appropriate downstream purification systems are in place. The formulation supports operational safety, equipment protection, and reduced maintenance cycles.
Performance Features & Benefits:
- Extended Maintenance Intervals: Reduces formation of carbon and lacquer, allowing longer periods between valve and piston servicing.
- Superior Wear Protection: Helps protect bearings and pistons against wear and corrosion.
- System Efficiency: Maintains efficient compressor operation by preventing deposit build-up.
- Enhanced Safety: Reduces risk of fire and explosion in discharge air-lines through cleaner operation.
- Water Separation: Promotes rapid condensate separation to avoid lubrication failure and corrosion.
Main Application Areas:
- Industrial reciprocating air compressors (up to 220°C discharge)
- Breathing air compressors (with proper filtration systems)
Specifications & Approvals:
- DIN 51506 VBL
- ISO 6743-3 L DAA (Normal Duty)
Environmental & Safety Information:
- Use appropriate gloves and avoid skin contact with used oil.
- Do not discharge into drains, soil, or water. Dispose of oil through authorised collection services.
- Safety Data Sheet (SDS) available via inquiry
