Purpose and Specifications

Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 (550045738) is a premium high-performance hydraulic oil in a 20-liter canister, perfect for industrial machinery, excavators, cranes, and construction equipment. This VG 32 fluid flows smoothly at low temperatures down to -45°C for reliable cold starts and stays thick under extreme heat up to 210°C flash point, protecting pumps and valves from wear. It meets tough standards like DIN 51524-3 HVLP, Denison HF-0/HF-1/HF-2, ISO 11158 HV, and Bosch RDE 90245, delivering up to 4 times longer life than basic oils while resisting breakdown, sludge, and foaming for efficient power transfer.

When to Use / Replace?

Use this oil in mobile hydraulics and marine systems where temperatures swing widely or heavy loads demand superior protection. Replace every 7,500 hours or 5,000 operating days under normal conditions to maintain peak performance, or sooner if contamination rises. Shelf life is 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage. Its high viscosity index (over 150) ensures consistent operation from arctic cold to hot deserts, cutting maintenance costs and boosting equipment uptime.
