A PREMIUM zinc-free INDUSTRIAL HYDRAULIC FLUID

Shell Tellus S3 M uses a unique, advanced, zinc-free anti-wear technology
to deliver up to twice the life of Shell’s conventional mainstream products,
improved pump protection and high efficiency levels. Engineered to work
under hot and heavy load conditions, it is ideal for most manufacturing and
many mobile equipment operations.
In addition, its reduced environmental impact (low toxicity towards aquatic
life) can help progressive operators to manage the environmental impact of
their operations.
IMPROVED CLEANLINESS: All Shell Tellus products now meet the demanding cleanliness requirements of the DIN industry
standard to help provide extra protection, improved filter performance and less maintenance.
Designed to protect
Protecting components from damage can help to increase service life and maximise your return on investment. Shell Tellus S3 M can help to
achieve this by providing
n up to 76% less wear n superior load-carrying capacity.
in demanding industry specification pump tests. Shell Tellus S3 M exceeds the industry standard for gear wear of
‘load stage 10’ by two load stages (load stage 12).
