Shell Tellus S2 VX 100

High-performance hydraulic oil, Group II base oil technology, versatile applications

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 is a high-performance hydraulic oil based on premium Group II base oils, offering outstanding protection and exceptional performance. It demonstrates excellent resistance to high temperatures and mechanical stress. It also has a wide operating temperature range, making it suitable for use in mobile machinery and applications exposed to wide ambient temperature fluctuations.

Long oil life - saving on maintenance costs

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 helps extend maintenance intervals for machinery and equipment as it resists thermal and chemical degradation for a long time.
Properties minimize harmful sludge formation and support high reliability and system cleanliness.

Even in the presence of moisture, Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 demonstrates high hydrolytic stability, supporting long oil life and reducing the risk of corrosion and rust formation in humid environments.

The extremely shear-stable viscosity-improving additives help to maintain the oil properties within the oil usage intervals.

Outstanding wear protection

Tellus S2 VX was developed to meet the increasing demands of future generations on hydraulic systems, including high
load-bearing capacity in the FZG test. It shows excellent performance in the demanding Denison T6H20C test (both in the dry and in the
wet version) and the Eaton Vickers 35VQ25 test.
Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 helps extend component life.

Supporting consistently high system efficiency

Excellent filterability, outstanding water and air separation properties, and foam prevention contribute to increasing the efficiency of hydraulic systems. Factory-tested to cleanliness class 20/18/15 according to ISO 4406.
and helps reduce filter blockages and increase filter life and system protection.

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 was developed to prevent foaming and provide excellent air release properties, supporting efficient power transmission and reducing the risk of cavitation.

Main areas of application

Mobile hydraulic systems

Mobile machinery and hydraulic systems operating outdoors without protection can be exposed to significant temperature fluctuations. The high viscosity-temperature index of Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 supports optimal response from cold start to full-load operation, enabling use in extreme environmental and operating conditions.

Hydraulic precision systems

In precision hydraulic systems, Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 helps maintain consistent viscosity throughout the entire operating cycle. Compared to ISO HM oils, Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 offers better viscosity-temperature behavior, which can improve system performance.

Hydraulic systems in shipping

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 is suitable for use in the marine industry where products according to ISO HV are required.

Specifications, approvals and recommendations

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 was developed with the aim of
to meet the following requirements:

• Eaton E-FDGN-TB002-E
• ISO 11158
• DIN 51524 Part 3 Type HVLP
• ASTM D6158

Compatibility and miscibility

Usability

Shell Tellus S2 VX oil is suitable for applications in most hydraulic pumps.

Miscibility with other oils

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 is miscible with commercially available mineral oil-based hydraulic oils. However, mineral oil-based hydraulic oils should generally not be used
be mixed with other fluid types such as biodegradable or flame-retardant hydraulic fluids.

Compatibility with surrounding materials

Shell Tellus S2 VX 100 is compatible with common sealing materials and paints designed for use with mineral oil.
