Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 Advanced Synthetic Industrial Gear Oil - 5 Gallon PAIL
Because Shell Omala S4 GXV 150 has long oil life and increases time between maintenance operations, it's the ideal choice for cost-conscious consumers. With an advanced formula designed specifically for industrial gears that are subjected to severe operating conditions, Shell Omala S3 GXV 150 can protect gears against micro-pitting, wear and corrosion. Perfect for wind turbines and other hard-to-access installations, this synthetic heavy-duty oil can prolong the lifespan of your equipment and give you hands-free maintenance.
Long oil life - maintenance saving Shell Omala S4 GXV is formulated using an advanced additive system in combination with specially selected synthetic base fluids to provide outstanding resistance to break down over long durations and/or high-temperature operation. This performance is recognized by Flender AG where a formal approval for 20,000 hours (four years) at 80 C usage has been granted. Shell Omala S4 GX can operate successfully at bulk temperatures up to 120 C. Shell Omala S4 GX offers the potential to significantly extend service intervals compared to conventional industrial gear oils. Excellent wear and corrosion protection Shell Omala S4 GX is formulated to have an 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 GX also has excellent corrosion protection, even in the presence of contamination by water and solids. Maintaining system efficiency Shell Omala S4 GX 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.Main Applications
Wind turbines and other inaccessible installations Shell Omala S4 GXV is particularly recommended for certain systems where extra long life is required, maintenance is infrequent or systems are inaccessible.
Enclosed industrial gear systems
Recommended for industrial reduction gear systems operating under severe operating conditions, such as high load, very low or elevated temperatures, and wide temperature variations.
Other applications
Shell Omala S4 GXV oils are suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splash-lubricated systems.
For highly loaded worm drives the Shell Omala series oils are recommended. For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.
