Shell Tellus S3 M 32

Shell Tellus S3 M 32 is a premium zinc-free ISO VG 32 hydraulic fluid engineered for long life, reduced maintenance, and efficient operation in industrial and mobile hydraulic systems.

Category:

Shell Tellus S3 M 32

Zinc-free hydraulic fluid for industrial and mobile systems with extended service life

  • Zinc-free formulation provides robust anti-wear performance under high-load and severe duty

  • Long fluid life with extended oxidation stability (≥5000 hours in ASTM D943 TOST test)

  • Excellent resistance to degradation in the presence of heat and water

  • High cleanliness (ISO 4406 21/19/16 or better from Shell filling lines) supports system efficiency

  • Maintains filterability and performance even when water-contaminated

  • Superior air release, water separation, and foam control ensure consistent hydraulic function

  • Low environmental toxicity to marine and freshwater invertebrates

  • Suitable for use in manufacturing, marine, and mobile hydraulic systems

Global Product Code: 001D7758



Application:

Shell Tellus S3 M 32 is a premium ISO VG 32 zinc-free hydraulic fluid developed for high-performance applications in manufacturing, marine, and mobile equipment. It offers extended life, wear protection, and improved system cleanliness, particularly under severe operating conditions or where maintenance access is limited.

Performance Features & Benefits:

  • Long Fluid Life: Extended oxidative stability with a minimum 5000-hour TOST lifespan (ASTM D943) reduces maintenance and downtime.
  • Wear Protection: Zinc-free additive technology protects components under severe, low-load, and high-load conditions; proven in Denison T6C and Eaton Vickers 35VQ25 pump tests.
  • Operational Efficiency: Maintains filterability and hydraulic efficiency even with water contamination.
  • Clean System Operation: High cleanliness levels (ISO 4406 21/19/16 or better) minimize abrasive wear and filter clogging.
  • Environmental Responsibility: Classified as ‘not harmful’ to freshwater and marine invertebrates; uses low sulfur base oils and zinc-free technology.

Main Application Areas:

  • Manufacturing and industrial hydraulic systems
  • Marine and mobile hydraulic applications using ISO HM fluids
  • Remote or inaccessible equipment requiring long fluid life

Specifications & Approvals:

  • Denison Hydraulics (HF-0, HF-1, HF-2)
  • Fives Cincinnati P-68 (ISO 32)
  • Eaton Vickers (Brochure 694)
  • ISO 11158 (HM fluids)
  • DIN 51524-2 (HLP oils)
  • ASTM D6158 (HM mineral oils)
