Performance, Features & Benefits

• Long oil life – maintenance saving

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is formulated using an advanced additive system in combination with specially selected synthetic base fluids to provide outstanding resistance to breakdown over long duration and/or high temperature operation.

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 can operate successfully at bulk temperatures up to 1200C. Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 offers the potential to significantly extend service intervals compared to conventional industrial gear oils.

• Excellent wear and corrosion protection

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is formulated to have excellent load carrying capacity and micro pitting performance providing long component life even under shock loading conditions. These features provide benefits over mineral oil-based products in terms of gear and bearing component life.

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 also has excellent corrosion protection, even in the presence of contamination by water and solids.

• Maintaining system efficiency

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 can help maintain or enhance the efficiency of industrial gear systems through improved low temperature performance and lower friction in comparison to mineral oil-based products. This provides better lubrication at low start-up temperatures.

Main Applications

• Gear motor systems and other inaccessible installations

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is particularly recommended for certain systems where extra long life is required, maintenance is infrequent or systems are inaccessible.

• Excellent compatibility with seals, paints and sealants

Recommended for industrial reduction gear systems using a wide range of seals, including nitrile rubber and fluoroelastomers. Meets the demanding requirements of Siemens for Flender gearboxes and gear motors.

• Enclosed industrial gear systems

Recommended for industrial reduction gear systems operating under severe operating conditions, such as high load, very low or elevated temperatures and wide temperature variations.

•  Other applications

Shell Omala S4 GXV 220 is suitable for lubrication of bearings and other components in circulating and splashlubricated systems.

For highly loaded worm drives the Shell Omala “W”series oils are recommended. For automotive hypoid gears, the appropriate Shell Spirax Oil should be used.
