Shell Paper Machine Oil S3 M 150 • 209L

Performance, Features & Benefits

• Good oil life – maintenance saving
  Shell Paper Machine Oils S3 M have been designed to resist breakdown under high temperatures and in the presence of water. They have excellent performance in tests such as the ASTM Turbine Oil Stability Test (TOST), a commonly used method of assessing relative oil life capability.
   
• Reliable wear & corrosion protection
  Shell Paper Machine Oils S3 M use a modern, ashless (zinc-free) anti-wear system to provide high performance protection against wear.
  
  In addition, they are formulated to provide effective protection against corrosion, even in the wet environments found in paper machine applications.
   
• Maintaining system efficiency
  Excellent water separation and air release helps in conjunction with high quality base oils helps ensure the efficient lubrication of the machines and systems.
  
  Shell Paper Machine Oils S3 M are also suitable for use with fine filtration to help ensure effective contaminant free lubrication to critical machine parts.

Main Applications

• Paper machine applications
  There is extensive operator experience with Shell Paper Machine Oils S3 M in many applications especially in Metso and Voith paper machine circulating systems, which include the dry and wet ends of the machine plus the calender stacks.
   
• Shell Paper Machine Oils S3 M are specifically designed for:
  • Lubrication of bearings, gears and auxiliary equipment in the wet end and dryer sections of paper machines
  • Hydraulic and lubrication systems in deflectioncompensating rolls
  • Enhanced protection of gears under severe operating conditions.
