Dear Valued Distributor,

Earlier this month we released a Shell Lubricants Handbook (material no. 5066096) which is a field-guide

for sales, customer service, and technical staff and which contains detailed product information including

specifications and equipment coverage of Shell branded products. The previous book was released some

time ago, so this latest edition contains some new items that may not be familiar to you.

The handbook includes mostly products available within the US. Some products are also available in

both the US and Canada. (Shell Lubricants Canada releases a separate handbook for that market.) Some

other products that are part of our global portfolio and are not yet available, but could be made available

in the future, are for the sake of completeness included in the current handbook. And there is one

omission due to printer error.

Some examples of the above products:

CI-4 PLUS Products not available in Canada: The Handbook lists both Shell Rimula Premium® (p. 136)

and Shell Rotella® T Multigrade (p. 144) products; both are unavailable in Canada.

Shell Rotella® products on pages 152 – 163 not yet available in the US: Shell Rotella® T1 (p. 152),

Shell Rotella® T2 (p. 154), Shell Rotella® T3 (p. 156), Shell Rotella® T5 (p. 158), Shell Rotella® T5

0W-30 (p. 160), Shell Rotella® T6 (p. 162), not yet available in the US.

The omission of FormulaShell® conventional motor oil in 5W-20, 5W-30, and 10W-30 is regrettable.

We strive to continue to grow our lubricants business, and we continue to manage our portfolio to provide

the right products for the needs of our customers. This process involves both introducing new products

and eliminating offerings that have run their course; both types may appear in the handbook. Prior to the

launch of any new products already in the handbook, comprehensive sales training and materials will

drive successful implementation. Likewise, we strive to deliver usable information at your fingertips. In

case that you have a product information request that is not covered in the handbook or are looking for a

replacement for a product no longer available, please try http://www.epc.shell.com/, www.shell-

lubricants.com, or call the Technical Information Center at 800-237-8645.

Please make sure that sales and customer service personnel use the handbook and other resources as much

as possible to achieve sales excellence in the marketplace. Also, please contact your Shell Lubricants

sales representative with any questions you may have regarding our products or the new handbook.

We appreciate and value your business.

Sincerely,

Luis Guimaraes

General Manager, Marketing, North America

Shell MORLINA® Oils SDPremium quality bearing and circulating oils specificallydeveloped to have superior demulsificationShell MORLINA® Oils SD are premium quality rust and oxidation inhibitedlubricating oils providing excellent lubrication in ‘MORGOIL®’ bearing andsteel mill circulating systems. They are designed to have appropriateviscosity/temperature characteristics, low foaming tendencies and excellentwater separation properties. In addition, they protect equipment againstcorrosion and oil oxidation promoting long service life.

Performance Features and Benefits• Water contamination is the norm in steel millbearing and circulating applications, causingcorrosion and inadequate lubrication. Poordemulsibility can also lead to the formationof emulsions which reduce filtrationeffectiveness, restrict circulation and promotebacterial growth.

• Shell MORLINA® Oils SD have outstandingdemulsibility. Water is rapidly shed from the oil.The free water can then be easily drained orcentrifuged from the lubrication systemprotecting the installation against corrosion,premature wear and failure.

• Shell MORLINA® Oils SD are especially usefulin smaller newer systems where excellentdemulse is critical for effective operation. It ishelpful in some neglected systems wherethe normal maintenance regimes havebeen relaxed.

• Shell MORLINA® Oils SD help to reduce newproduct purchases, component replacement aswell as helping to reduce maintenance costs,parts and labor.

• High operating temperatures and extended oildrain intervals demand superior oxidationproperties of the oil. Shell MORLINA® Oils SDhave excellent thermal and oxidative stabilitywhich reduce the formation of sludge and otherharmful oxidation products. The result isextended oil life, less maintenance andless downtime.

• Shell MORLINA® Oils SD exhibit excellentsurface properties with rapid air release anda high resistance to foaming. This reducesproblems associated with pump cavitation,premature oil oxidation and excessive wear.

• Poor corrosion performance in circulating oilsleads to reduced levels of oil cleanliness whichpromote abrasive wear, consequent failure ofcomponents (e.g. damaged bearings andblocked control valves etc), sludge formation,accelerated oil oxidation and increasedfoaming. Shell MORLINA® Oils SD prevent theformation of rust. It guards against the onset ofcorrosion ensuring protection for equipmentduring operation and shut-downs henceminimizing maintenance.

Shell VSI Circulating OilHydraulic and lubricating oil for rust protection invapor spacesShell developed VSI (Vapor Space Inhibiting) Circulating Oil with an anti-rustcompound which is oil soluble and volatile. This corrosion inhibitor fills thevapor space above the oil level to form a rust preventive barrier on exposedmetal surfaces and helps combat vapor space rusting. Moisture in enclosedair spaces over circulating oils is very likely to cause rusting when itcondenses on the cool walls of gear cases or reservoirs. Further, thiscondensed moisture is constantly replenished as the system “breathes”through vents and other openings.

Performance Features and Benefits• Excellent demulsibilty• Excellent corrosion protection

Main Applications• Hydraulic, turbine, and general lubricatingapplications

• Enclosed lubricating oil systems where rusting islikely to occur

• Anti-friction bearings and gears, reservoirs,system housings, piping and similar systemcomponents

• Machine tools that may be idle for weekendsor longer

Advice on applications not covered in thishandbook may be obtained from your Shellrepresentative.

Recommended Practices for UsingShell VSI Circulating Oil• High temperature will accelerate inhibitorrelease while low temperature will retard it. Aninitial temperature of 80° to 100°F will assist inearly distribution of the VSI agent. In operatingsystems recommended bulk oil temperatures are80° to 150°F. Temperatures over 200°F shouldbe avoided because of the excessive rustinhibiting vapor loss.

• A tightly closed system is best, and no attemptshould be made to protect a completely opensystem. Most oil circulating systems andreservoirs afford a relatively closed system tokeep the oil free of contamination. Anyreduction in system ventilation will help improvethe corrosion inhibiting action.

• The equipment should be clean before installingShell VSI Circulating Oil. Contamination maypromote rusting.

• Freshly cleaned surfaces should be immediatelycoated with Shell VSI Circulating Oil, ifpossible, to afford protection until rust inhibitingvapors can form.

• Shell VSI Circulating Oil is designed primarilyfor protection of ferrous metals. It is non-corrosive to most non-ferrous metals includingbrass, copper, bronze, zinc, babbitt, aluminumand magnesium. However, contact with leadand lead alloys should be avoided unless thealloys have been tested for suitability underactual operating conditions.

• For maximum effectiveness, the maximumdistance from the oil to the surfaces requiringprotection should be kept reasonably short.Experience indicates that with 80°F oil thedistance should be no more than about six feet.Where temperatures are lower, the maximumdistance should be less, and at temperaturesover 80°F it may be somewhat greater.

• Because of the significant effect that temperatureand ventilation have on depleting the rust-inhibiting additive, and because of differencesin make-up rates, it is difficult to predict oilservice life. However, experience has indicatedthat while the oil change interval is shorter thanthat for premium quality turbine oils, it issufficiently long to fit in with plant preventivemaintenance schedules.

Maintaining Shell Diesel Ready Fully Formulated Coolant/Antifreeze1. For top-up Shell Diesel Ready Fully Formulated Pre-diluted 50/50 or a 50/50 dilution of Shell DieselReady Fully Formulated Concentrate and water should be used.

2. Freeze point should be checked at every oil change or at least twice per year. For optimum year roundprotection against freezing, boiling and corrosion, a 50/50 mix of Shell Diesel Ready Fully FormulatedConcentrate and water is recommended. For maximum protection against freezing in extremely coldareas a 60% solution (3 parts Shell Diesel Ready Fully Formulated Concentrate and 2 parts water) canbe used. Concentrations greater than 67% or less than 40% are not recommended.

3. If doing a complete flush and refill, please note: Shell recommends flushing your system with cleanwater before you install Shell Diesel Ready Fully Formulated Coolant/Antifreeze. Shell does notrecommend chemical flushes, but if significant deposits are visible use a commercial cooling systemcleaner designed for your engine. Follow the manufacturer's flushing procedure and dispose ofproperly. Be sure to flush the system thoroughly with water twice after chemical flushing.

4. Coolant level should be kept at the proper level to prevent air entrapment, which could lead tocorrosion problems.

5. Shell Diesel Ready Fully Formulated Coolant requires the addition of supplemental coolant additives(SCA’s) on a regular basis. To determine when to add SCA’s use a test strip made for purple coloredcoolant. Coolant should be checked every 15,000 miles or at every oil change. Follow the recommendationsof the SCA supplier to determine how much additive should be used based on the test strip results.

6. In order to prevent the formation of silicate gel in storage containers, concentrated Shell Diesel ReadyFully Formulated should not be stored longer than 18 months without agitation, and should not be pre-diluted with supplemental coolant additives.

Please note this product is compatible with commercially available supplemental coolant additives and otherconventional and fully formulated coolants. It is not recommended this product be added to extended lifecoolants since over dilution of extended life coolants with conventional coolants may affect their performance.

Based on patented carboxylate inhibitortechnology, Shell Extended Life Coolant Conversion Fluid provides extendedlife corrosion protection for all engine metals, including aluminum, iron,steel, copper, brass and solder alloys. Shell Extended Life Coolant ConversionFluid is compatible with most ethylene glycol-based engine coolants.

Performance Features and Benefits• Up to 600,000 miles service before having to

flush and fill• Excellent pitting protection for wet sleeve

cylinder liners• Effective, long term corrosion protection for

aluminum, brass, cast iron, steel, solderand copper

• Outstanding hot surface aluminum protection• Easy coolant maintenance• No Supplemental Coolant Additives (SCA’s)

needed ever again• No inhibitor level testing required• 100% biodegradable in its pure unused form

Main ApplicationsShell Extended Life Coolant Conversion Fluid isintended for use as a quick and easy method toconvert a fleet from traditional coolant inhibitortechnology to Shell ROTELLA® ELC Extended LifeCoolant inhibitors. Use of Shell Extended LifeCoolant Conversion Fluid permits transitioning anentire fleet to Shell ROTELLA® ELC Extended LifeCoolant without having to flush and fill every pieceof equipment. In addition, conversion of coolingsystems by this method reduces disposal of usedcoolant. Completely flushing the engine coolingsystem and filling with Shell ROTELLA® ELCExtended Life Coolant is a superior conversionmethod to using Shell ELC Conversion Inhibitorsince flushing removes most of the silicates,phosphates and other total dissolved solids thatcan build up in a cooling system over time. Thesedissolved solids have been found to be abrasive towater pump seals.


Before UsePrior to application of Shell Extended Life CoolantConversion Fluid to a vehicle’s cooling system, thetraditional coolant must be tested to ensure it is insatisfactory condition. A test strip will be providedto test for freeze point, nitrite and pH. If the currentcoolant fails to meet any of the following criteria,its condition is considered not acceptable and thesystem should be completely flushed and filled withShell ROTELLA® ELC.

Freeze point between 10° and –60° F(Glycol % – between 25 and 66%)Nitrite concentration – less than 3,000 ppmpH – between 8 and 11

How Much to UseThe recommended treatment amount of ShellExtended Life Coolant Conversion Fluid is one (1)gallon for every 12 gallons of cooling system capacity.1. Calculate the amount of Shell Extended LifeCoolant Conversion Fluid needed

2. Remove that amount of coolant from the system,if necessary

3. Add the appropriate amount of Shell ExtendedLife Coolant Conversion Fluid

The resultant carboxylate inhibitor level of thetreated coolant is equivalent to that of a systemfilled with Shell ROTELLA® ELC Extended LifeCoolant Pre-diluted 50/50. Of course, traditionalinhibitors and contaminants are still present in thecooling system.


After UseAfter Shell Extended Life Coolant Conversion Fluidis added, a sample of treated coolant should besubmitted for analysis to ensure that Shell ExtendedLife Coolant Conversion Fluid has been addedproperly. The engine should be run for at least 30minutes at operating temperature prior to coolantsampling to insure complete mixing. A test reportwill be issued indicating a pass or fail condition onthe treated coolant. If a failing condition isreported, the cooling system may requireretreatment with Shell Extended Life CoolantConversion Fluid or a complete flush and fill

with Shell ROTELLA® ELC Extended LifeCoolant/Anti-Freeze.Shell recommends Shell Extended Life CoolantConversion Fluid for use in all heavy duty andnatural gas engines including Caterpillar,Cummins, Detroit Diesel, International, Mack,Volvo, and other original equipmentmanufacturers (OEMs).

Converting to Shell Industrial ELC:The procedure below will allow a cooling systemto be converted from using traditional coolants tothe Shell Industrial ELC technology.• Allow cooling system to cool thoroughly.• Drain traditional coolant from cooling system.Dispose of all coolant according to all lawsand regulations.

• Fill cooling system with clean water andcirculate system until normal operatingtemperatures are reached. Circulate system for15 to 30 minutes after reaching normaloperating temperatures.

• Check system for any leaks and replace anyworn materials.

• Drain the water from the cooling systemcompletely. Dispose of all re-circulated wateraccording to all laws and regulations. Waterthat remains in cooling system will affect thefreeze point of new coolant when added.

• Re-filling the cooling systemA. If using Shell Industrial ELCPre-diluted 50/50. Fill the cooling systemabout 9/10 full with Shell Industrial ELCPre-diluted 50/50. Circulate systemuntil normal operating temperature isreached. Test freeze point and adjust tobetween -15ºF and -62ºF. The optimalfreeze point is -34ºF. For underconcentrated systems use Shell IndustrialELC concentrate to make freeze point morenegative. For over concentrated systems usewater to make freeze point more positive.

Circulated system after freeze point hasbeen adjusted.

B. If using Shell Industrial ELC concentrate.Determine the total cooling system volumeand divide that number by 2. Fill half of thecooling system with Shell Industrial ELCconcentrate. Top up to full level withdeionized or good quality tap water.Circulate cooling system until normaloperating temperature is reached.Test freeze point and adjust to between-15ºF and -62ºF. The optimal freeze point is-34ºF. For under concentrated systems useShell Industrial ELC concentrate to makefreeze point more negative. For overconcentrated systems use good qualitywater to make freeze point more positive.

C. Use a refractometer to check freeze pointafter addition of top up fluid.

Maintaining Shell Industrial ELC:1. Check coolant level regularly. If systems areprone to leaking more frequent checking of thecooling system is recommended to maintainproper fluid levels. Top up as required with ShellIndustrial ELC Pre-diluted 50/50. Coolant levelsshould be maintained at proper levels to insurecorrect cooling system operation and avoidheadspace corrosion.

2. For systems using ethylene glycol or propyleneglycol check freeze point at least twice per yearusing a refractometer and adjust to between-15ºF and -62ºF. Optimum freeze point is -34ºF.

Shell MADRELA® Oil GPSynthetic lubricant for gas compressorsShell MADRELA® Oil GP has been specially developed for cylinder lubricationof reciprocating compressors handling natural gas at high pressure. It isbased on polyglycol base fluids and offers significant benefits over mineral oilbased products, especially in gas re-injection compressor applications.

Performance Features and Benefits• Reduced hydrocarbon gas solubilityDeveloped specifically to provide reduced gassolubility. This results in reduced viscosity loss incomparison with mineral oil-based products,improving piston ring and packing lubrication.Service intervals can be extended, reducingmaintenance and downtime costs.

• Reduced feed rateThe improved lubrication allows a reduction incylinder feed rates, reducing lubricantconsumption and costs.

• Lubricant film retentionThe reduced viscosity loss also results inretention of a stronger lubricant film on thecylinder wall, piston rings and packingcomponents. Corrosion protection is increasedand wear rates further reduced

• No effect on well formationIn gas re-injection applications, ShellMADRELA® Oil GP present as carryover in there-injected gas, is compatible with well boretreatment chemicals and resists depositformation and well impairment caused byplugging of the well strata.

Shell VALVATA® Oils JCompounded steam cylinder oilShell VALVATA® Oils J are quality refined, high viscosity mineral oilscompounded with a small percentage of fatty oils. They are used, primarily,for the lubrication of steam cylinders working under high temperature, highpressure conditions, where low carbon formation and ‘steam washing’ areimportant considerations. They atomize more easily and with steam ofmoderate superheat and produce more tenacious lubricating films than‘straight’ grades of the same viscosity.

Performance Features and Benefits• Good thermal resistance and oxidation stabilityPossess low volatility and a natural resistance tothe formation of gummy or carbonaceousdeposits in high temperature conditions.

• Tenacious lubricating oil filmProvides effective lubrication and corrosionprotection even when subjected to heavysteam-washing conditions

Main Applications• Seam cylinder lubrication• Low speed enclosed gears• Certain worm gears


Steam Engine LubricationIn steam engines, the lubrication requirement of thecylinders and other parts exposed to steam differfrom those of bearings and other external partsworking under far less arduous conditions. Thelubrication requirements of cylinders and bearingsmust be considered separately.

Steam Cylinder LubricationThe function of a steam-cylinder lubricant is to forman oil film that will adequately lubricate therubbing surfaces at high operating temperaturesand also prevent leakage past valves, pistons andglands. Efficient atomization, easy spreading overthe working surfaces and the ability to resistscouring action of the steam (the washing effect ofwater) are other important properties.Steam-cylinder oils are classified according to

steam temperature and engine power. The higherthe steam temperature the more powerful theengine, the greater will be the required heatstability which is generally related to viscosity.Compounded oils, such as Shell VALVATA® Oils J,have an advantage over ‘straight’ grades underenvironments of moderate superheat. However,fatty oils volatilize under high superheat conditionsand show little advantage over ‘straight’ gradesunder these conditions. Because of theiremulsification properties, compounded oils may bedifficult to separate from water. Where waterseparation is important, a ‘non fatty’ lubricant,such as Shell VITREA® Oils, should be used.

Bearing Lubrication of Steam EnginesThere are two types of crankcase engine, the openand the enclosed type:For open crankcase bearing lubricationordinary machine oils, such as Shell VITREA® Oil,are suitable.Enclosed crankcase engines have force-feedcirculating systems where the oil is liable to becontaminated with water through steam leakage.The oil must, therefore, separate readily from thewater so that it can drain off from time to time.SHELL TURBO® Oils T are recommended forthis purpose.

Low Speed Enclosed GearsShell VALVATA® Oils J may be used to advantage inworm gears prone to suffer extensive wear and toreduce the bulk oil temperature. Typical examplesare gears running at low speed under stop-startconditions.

Shell MYSELLA® OilsHigh performance ash-free oil for stationary gas enginesShell MYSELLA® Oils are a heavy-duty lubricants for high performancenatural gas engines which require an ‘ashless’ product. Using ashlesstechnology developed by Shell, Shell MYSELLA® Oils minimize engine wear,deposits in combustion chambers and exhaust ports and viscosity increasein service.

Performance Features and Benefits• Excellent engine cleanliness

New engines will remain almost deposit-free.The detergency of Shell MYSELLA® Oils willwork to clean the heavy coatings of varnishfrom older engines which have used lowerquality oils. (This cleansing action takes placegradually, thereby reducing the chance ofblocking oil screens or filters with dislodgeddeposits.)

• Minimal cylinder depositsThe ‘ashless’ formulation of Shell MYSELLA®

Oils enable spark plugs to remain almost ‘asnew’, with their lifetime limited only by sparkgap erosion. It also virtually eliminatesdetonation and pre-ignition, due to the absenceof deposit ‘hot spots.’

• Clean cylinder portsShell MYSELLA® Oils combine a low tendencyto form carbon with a strong detergency system,to avoid port plugging in 2-stroke (2-cycle)engines.

• Protection from wearShell MYSELLA® Oils protect and minimizescuffing during the running-in (break-in) period.

• Long oil and filter lifeShell MYSELLA® Oils are highly resistant tonitration and oxidation, which cause filterdeposits, viscosity increase and acid build-up.

Main Applications• 2 and 4 stroke (2 and 4 cycle) spark-ignited

engines fueled by natural gas and LP gas,which require or perform well with an ashlessoil, including the following types:

Allis-Chalmers, Ajax, Caterpillar (except 3400,3500, 3600), Clark, Climax, Colt-FairbanksMorse, Cooper-Bessemer (2-cycle), Dresser-Rand(Category I and II), International–Harvester,Waukesha, White Superior (naturallyaspirated), Worthington.

Product MaintenanceThe tacky nature of the product makes handpacking the preferred method of newly installedcouplings to ensure even distribution throughout.Normal handling precautions should be observedas with any petroleum-based products. Consult thecoupling manufacturer’s installation instructions fordetailed lubricant application procedures. Thefollowing procedure outlines a popular lubricationmethod. Prior to assembly of gear couplings acoating of grease should be applied to gear teeth.After hand packing, the coupling should be rotatedso the grease fitting reaches 4 o’clock, and thefitting/plug removed. A short length of 1/4-inchpipe can be affixed and grease pumped into thecoupling until product is observed flowing out thepurge opening at 10 o’clock. The pipe should thenbe removed and the plugs reinserted. This practiceinsures that the coupling is adequately lubricated.Routine relubrication can be accomplished with

disassembly using this method. The grease willthen be evenly distributed to all moving and slidingsurfaces and the full benefits of the product will berealized. Special care needs to be taken whenfilling “Full Travel” type couplings so the correctamount of grease is charged.

Performance Features and BenefitsShell TM-H Gear Grease is a lithium soapthickened traction motor gear lubricantusing a high viscosity base oil blend and asulfur/phosphorus extreme pressure agent. TheBrookfield Apparent Viscosity (BAV) is in the rangeof 15,000-20,000 cP at 200°F. Shell TM-H GearGrease is best used in situations where leakage isa major problem.Shell TM Gear Grease is comparable to Shell TM-HGear Grease but has a slightly lower BAV range of5,000-10,000 cP at 200°F. The decrease in BAVcan be attributed to a slightly lower lithium soapthickener content. Shell TM Gear Grease wasdeveloped for railroads preferring a lighterproduct than Shell TM-H Gear Grease and forcold weather operations.

• Long term and efficient gear protectionagainst wear

• Excellent lubrication for highly loaded gears• Ability to perform well under all types

of conditions

Main ApplicationsShell TM-H Gear Grease and Shell TM GearGrease are specifically designed to lubricate thetraction motor gear cases of all locomotivesincluding the newest, high horsepower peraxle units.These products should not be used to lubricateanti-friction bearings

Specifications, Approvals, andRecommendations• NSF H1 Registered• Formulated in accordance with US FDA 21

CFR 178.3570

Product MaintenanceMaintaining a clean work environment is criticalwhen equipment greasing is performed. Greasefittings should be wiped clean prior to greaseinjection to prevent contaminants from entering theequipment. Bearing housings should be maintainedone-third to one-half full of grease. Over-greasingshould be avoided as excessive heat buildup canresult. Periodic relubrication via grease gun orcentralized system should be supplemented bycomplete cleaning and packing with fresh greaseon an appropriate schedule.

Conversion GuideWhen upgrading from another food gradegrease product to Shell Grease FM 2, productcompatibility should be considered. Commonly,mixing dissimilar grease thickener systems such asaluminum complex and calcium sulfonate complexwill result in a softer mixture than either originalproduct. A temporary adjustment in relubricationfrequency during product transition maybe required.When converting from a non-food grade greaseto Shell Grease FM 2 thorough purging isrecommended. Equipment disassembly andcleaning prior to initial use of food grade greasemay be needed.

Shell TORCULA® Fluids DEHigh quality synthetic oil mist lubricants Shell TORCULA® Fluids DE are fully formulated, high quality synthetic oil mistlubricants based on diester technology to enhance low temperatureproperties and prevent the formation of wax and other deposits which mayplug oil mist application fittings when mineral oil based lubricants are used.

Performance Features and Benefits• Synthetic products based on diester technology• Excellent surface-wetting characteristics• Excellent thermal and oxidation stability• Reduced component wear• Excellent deposit control• Minimal plugging tendencies• Rust and corrosion resistance

Main ApplicationsShell TORCULA® Fluids DE series has beendesigned to meet the lubrication requirements ofmany oil mist lubrication systems operating inadverse conditions, particularly low temperatureapplications. Since synthetic fluids do not containwax, this eliminates problems due to waxplugging, which can occur with mineral oils ormineral oil products. The Shell TORCULA® Fluids DE products can beused in oil mist systems, hydraulic applications,and general industrial applications where syntheticproducts with outstanding low temperature andoxidation properties are required.


Specifications, Approvals, andRecommendations • Oil mist lubrication applications undersevere conditions

• Where EP properties are not required inhydraulic systems and for general industriallubrication systems, including gears

Product MaintenanceShell TORCULA® Fluids DE lubricants arecompatible with conventional non-detergentpetroleum oils, although mixing could reduce theperformance of the synthetic lubricant. Afterconverting from mineral oil based lubricants, it issuggested that the oil mist lubrication system bewatched closely. Diesters have excellent solvencyand will aggressively “clean-up” system depositsthat might have formed while mineral oil basedlubricants were in use. Therefore oil filters need tobe monitored frequently in the early stages afterconversion to these type products.

Please note: Shell TORCULA® Fluids DE lubricantsmay or may not be compatible with seals, paints,plastics, etc. found in systems designed forpetroleum oils. When there is any doubt regardingthe compatibility of system components with thesediester-based lubricants, the equipmentmanufacturer should be consulted.

Useful Notes:

Enclosed Gears: It is important not to overfill a gearbox, as this can lead to foaming of the oil and consequent waste; overheating of the oilcan also result, which may lead to sludge formation and undesirable thickening of the oil. The correct oil level is usually indicated on thegearbox by the makers but, if not, when stationary the dipping gear should be immersed in oil to a depth of three times the tooth height.Gearbox should not be topped up when the machine is running, as it is then impossible to judge the correct oil level.

Open Gears: Tacky or adhesive products are often employed as open gear lubricants. These compounds/fluids can be applied manually byhand (paddle or brush) or sprayed onto the gears via an automatic system. The advantage of grease for open gears is that it is moreeffectively retained on the gear teeth than oil. Because of the adhesive nature of these compounds, dust, grit, etc, tend to collect on the coatedsurface of the gear teeth. The old lubricant should therefore be cleaned off periodically to prevent abrasive wear.

Grease Lubricated Ball and Roller Bearings: Periodically these bearings should be cleaned out and repacked with fresh grease and thehousing should be left not more than one –half full of grease otherwise overheating may occur. It is quite usual for the temperature of a newly packed ball or roller bearing to increase rapidly when it is first started up. This is a temporaryeffect, however, when excess grease has been flung out of the working spaces and the grease in the housing has settled down, thetemperature will fall to a normal figure. If the temperature does not fall after an hour or so, the machine should be stopped and the bearingallowed to cool. If on restarting, the temperature again rises unduly, this may be the result of over-packing in which case some of the excessgrease should be removed from the housing.

Oil Lubricated Ball and Roller bearings: In filling these bearings the oil level should not be higher than the top of the lowest rolling element.The frequency of oil renewed will depend on operating conditions and the equipment manufacturer’s recommendations should be followedin each case.

Notes:1. Shell TELLUS® Oil T15 is recommended below 0°C irrespective of shaft surface speed.2. Shell OMALA® 1000 is recommended3. Shell VITREA® M460 is recommended 4. Bearings that stop and start frequently under heavy load and heavily loaded bearings with surface speeds below 6m/min may require oil

with additives to improve boundary lubrication, e.g. Shell OMALA® 680.

Lubricants Storage, Handling & HSE Guidelines

The quality of Shell Lubricants leaving the refinery or blending plant is closely monitored and controlled.Stringent care is taken in manufacture, in packing and in transportation to ensure that the products are free from contaminants, and fully meet or exceed their stated specifications.However, once the lubricants leave the care of Shell or its agents, their continuing fitness for use may depend on the quality of subsequent storage or handling procedures.This section of the Shell Product Information Handbook provides storage and handling guidelines for maintaining Shell Lubricants in the good, clean condition essential for effective service.

Siting the Lubricants StoreIdeally lubricants should be stored under cover at a reasonably constant, moderate temperature. In practice, this may not be possible and the lubricants store may have to be at least partly outdoors.However, whether it is outdoors or under cover, the store should be sited so as to provide:• Goodaccessfordeliveryvehicles.• Plentyofvehiclesunloadingroom.• Properlyequippedunloadingdockwithdirectaccesstotheoilstore.• Cleandust-freeconditionsforunsealinganddispensing.• Easydistributiontotheprincipalpointsofuse.• Simpleinventorycontrol,andat-a-glancecheckonthe

Outdoor StorageIf protected from extremes of temperature and from ingress of water, most lubricants are unaffected by climatic conditions and may be stored outdoors for limited periods.However,iftemperaturesbelow0°Careanticipated,protectionshouldbegiventolubricantswhicharesensitivetotheeffectsoffrost(e.g.oil/wateremulsionsorwaterextendablefluids).The following products should never be stored in the open:• Insulatingoils.• Refrigeratoroils.• Whiteandmedicinaloils.• AeroShelloilsandcompounds.• Greases.• Neatcuttingoilscontainingfattyoilsorcompounds,whichcansolidifyandseparatewhenverycold.Itisalsopreferableforpackagedlubricantstobeopenedundercoverandbesubsequentlystoredundercover.

Personal HygieneShelllubricantsarequitesafetouseprovidedordinarycareistakentominimizeskincontaminationandtoavoid breathing oil mist or vapors.However, prolonged improper use can cause dermatitis or other skin conditions or even, where heavy contamination occurs over many years, skin cancer.Those at risk are people who use oils every day over periods of months or years, not those who work with oils only very occasionally. The risks can be avoided by carrying out the following simple health precautions.

Special Oils and CompoundsThe types of oil that have been associated overseas with skin disorders appear to be those which have been lightly refined and which contain relatively more polynuclear aromatic compounds. Oils of this type areusedinrubberprocessing.Particularcareshouldbetakeninthesecases.Whenworkingregularlywithmineraloilsfollowthesesimplerules:

Solventssuchaspetrol,kerosene,trichloroethaneandsimilarfluidsshould not be used for cleaning oil off the skin.

Barrier and Restorative CreamsThe regular washing needed in industry often removes the natural oils in the skin, which form a protective barrier. The natural protective barrier can be replaced to a certain extent by using a good barrier cream before work and a good hydrophilic skin cream containing lanoline or vegetable oils after finally washing the hands at the end of the work period.

The symbol of a prefix is considered to be combined with the unit symbol to which it is directly attached, forming with it a symbol for a new unit which can be provided with a positive or negative exponent and which can be combined with other unit symbols for compound units.The above recommendation is not being interpreted very rigidly and material stresses are often expressed in newtonspermillimetersquaredN/mm2whichisthesameas1megapascal(MPa).Similarlythe‘bar’,whichisequalto105Paorapproximately1atmosphere,isusedforexpressingfluidpressuresinprocessesorutilities.Furthermore, it is recommended that only one prefix is used and that this prefix is attached to the numerator of thederivedunit.Thusforpressureandstress106newtonspersquaremeter106pascals=1megapascalor1MPa.

API Engine Service Categories (Diesel Engines)

Category Status ServiceCJ-4 Current Introduced in 2006. For high-speed, four-stroke engines designed to meet

2007 model year on-highway exhaust emissions standards. CJ-4 oils are compounded for use in all applications with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur content up to 500 ppm (0.05% by weight). However, use of these oils with greater than 15 ppm (0.0015% by weight) sulfur fuel may impact exhaust aftertreatment system durability and/or oil drain interval. CJ-4 oils are effective at sustaining emission control system durability where particulate filters and other advanced after treatment systems are used. Optimum protection is provided for control of catalyst poisoning, particulate filter blocking, engine wear, piston deposits, low- and high-temperature stability, soot handling properties, oxidative thickening, foaming, and viscosity loss due to shear. API CJ-4 oils exceed the performance criteria API CI-4 with CI-4 PLUS, CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, and CF-4 and can effectively lubricate engines calling for those API Service Categories. When using CJ-4 oil with higher than 15 ppm sulfur fuel, consult the engine manufacturer for service interval.

CI-4 Current Introduced in 2002. For high-speed, four-stoke engines designed to meet 2004 exhaust emission standards implemented in 2002. CI-4 oils are formulated to sustain engine durability oils where exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) is used and are intended for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur content up to 0.5% weight. Can be used in place of CD, CE, CF-4, CG-4 and CH-4 oils. Some CI-4 oils may also qualify for the CI-4 PLUS designation.

CH-4 Current Introduced in 1998. For high-speed, four stroke engines designed to meet 1998 exhaust emission standards. CH-4 oils are specifically compounded for use with diesel fuels ranging in sulfur context up to 0.5% weight. Can be used in place of CD, CE, CF-4 and CG-4 oils.

CG-4 Current Introduced in 1995. For severe duty, high speed, four stroke engines using fuel with less than 0.5% weight sulfur. CG-4 oils are required for engines meeting 1994 emission standards. Can be used in place of CD, CE and CF-4 oils.

CF-4 Obsolete Introduced in 1990. For high-speed, four stroke, naturally aspirated and turbocharged engines. Can be used in place of CD and CE oils.

CF-2 Current Introduced in 1994. For severe duty, two stroke-cycle engines. Can be used in place of CD-II oils.

Viscosity GradeAnyofanumberofsystemsthatcharacteriselubricants according to viscosity for particular applications, such as industrial oils, gear oils, automotive engine oils, automotive gear oils, and aircraft piston engine oils.

Viscosity Index: (VI)Anumber,usuallybetween0and200,whichisameasureofafluid’schangeofviscositywithtemperature. The higher the viscosity index the smaller the change in viscosity with temperature.Low viscosity index (LVI) oils reduce viscosity (‘thickness’)rapidlyastemperatureincreases.TheseoilshaveVI.sintherangeof0to30.Medium viscosity index (MVI) oils reduce viscosity lessthanLVIoilsastemperatureincreasesandhaveVI.sintherange30to85.High viscosity index (HVI)oilshaveVI.sintherangeof85to110,andhavethebestviscositytemperature coefficients or dependence of
