Shell Gas compressor oil S4 PV 190

Performance, Features & Benefits of Shell Gas compressor oil S4 PV 190 are:

• Extended maintenance intervals. Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV has a lower gas solubility and therefore less viscosity loss compared to conventional mineral oil based products. It provides improved protection for the piston rings, helping to extend service intervals and reduce maintenance and downtime costs
• Outstanding wear protection. The low solubility of hydrocarbon gases and the resulting reduced viscosity drop leads to better lubrication of the cylinder walls, piston rings and sealing components, resulting in lower corrosion levels and cylinder wear.
• Designed for efficient operation. Lower oil feed rates are possible compared to conventional lubricating oils due to the better wear protection level, and the lubrication provides improved reliability and reduces the carry-over of oil into the compressed gas.

Specifications of Shell Gas compressor oil S4 PV 190 are:

• Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV is approved by the following manufacturers
• Burckhardt Compression AG: Approved for use in their K-type gas compressors for general LPG/LNG services and for ammonia, vinyl chloride, butadiene etc. Meets Burckhardt lubricating oil specification (VSB) 1001301.
• Linde AG: Approved for general gas compression including ammonia, vinyl chloride and butadiene
• GreenField AG (Atlas Copco): Approved for use in their plunger gas compressors with hydrocarbon, helium, argon, hydrogen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide

Compatibility & Miscibility of Shell Gas compressor oil S4 PV 190 are:

• Compatibility with sealing materials. Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV can be used with various common sealing materials such as butyl, nitrile, neoprene and viton. Special care should be taken when changing the oil system from mineral oil to Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV. Gaskets that are normally used with mineral oil and swell slightly can now remain unchanged or even shrink when Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV is used despite the same materials. Leaks can be the result of worn or damaged seals. When changing the oil, it is therefore strongly recommended that new gaskets be fitted.
• Note on oil change. Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV contains polyalkene glycols and is not miscible with petroleum-based products like most synthetic products. Special changeover procedures must be followed when changing from a mineral oil based product to Shell Gas Compressor Oil S4 PV

Product Description Shell Gas compressor oil S4 PV 190
