Performance, Features & Benefits of Shell Turbo S4 X 32

+ Extended oil life

Shell Turbo S4 X 32 delivers exceptional resistance to oxidation even under conditions of high oxidative and thermal stress. Excellent results in both the ASTM dry TOST and the TOST life test (ASTM D943) demonstrate the potential for Shell Turbo S4 X 32 to offer extended service life and reduced maintenance costs when compared to conventional mineral oil technology.

+ Enhanced Equipment protection

The greater resistance against varnish and sludge formation provided by Shell Turbo S4 X 32 allows turbine systems to operate reliably even during severe peak load operation. Minimising the formation of sludge and bearing deposits not only reduces the wear of critical system components, but can also reduce the risk of an unplanned turbine shutdown.

+ Enhanced System Efficiency

Demulsibility, air release and resistance to foaming are critical performance factors for oil in the latest turbine designs (especially turbines which have shorter oil residence times). Shell Turbo S4 X 32 offers excellent performance in all three areas, ensuring that optimum operating conditions are maintained.
