Shell Tellus S3 V 68

Application:

Shell Tellus S3 V 46 is a high-performance, zinc-free ISO VG 46 hydraulic fluid engineered for mobile and industrial systems exposed to wide temperature fluctuations. It features excellent viscosity stability, oxidative resistance, and system cleanliness. Previously known as Shell Tellus STX.

Performance Features & Benefits:

• Long Fluid Life: Extended fluid maintenance intervals enabled by ≥5000-hour oxidative stability in ASTM D943 TOST test. Resists thermal and water-induced degradation.
• Exceptional Wear Protection: Advanced zinc-free anti-wear additives deliver protection in low and high-load systems. Maintains lubrication films under severe operating conditions.
• Wide Temperature Performance: High viscosity index (VI 162) and shear stability ensure reliable performance from cold start to full load.
• Efficient System Operation: Excellent filterability, air release, and water separation — even in contaminated conditions — help maintain hydraulic efficiency and extend component life.
• Cleanliness Assurance: Filled to ISO 4406 cleanliness level 21/19/16 or better, minimizing filter blockage and wear.

Main Application Areas:

• Mobile and exterior hydraulic systems subject to large ambient temperature swings
• Precision hydraulic systems requiring viscosity consistency and high filterability
• Industrial and fluid power systems requiring ISO HV performance
