Purpose and Specifications

Shell Tellus S2 MX 32 Hydraulic Oil (550045734) is a premium anti-wear fluid designed to protect hydraulic pumps, valves, and motors in industrial and mobile equipment. This VG 32 oil flows smoothly at low temperatures down to -27°C for reliable cold starts, while staying thick enough at high temperatures up to 90°C to prevent wear and maintain system efficiency. It meets tough standards like Denison HF-0/HF-1/HF-2, DIN 51524-2 HLP, and ISO 11158 HM, ensuring compatibility with major brands including Bosch, Eaton, and Fives Cincinnati.

Key practical benefits include outstanding oxidation resistance for fluid life over 5,000 hours in normal use, rapid water separation to avoid corrosion, and low foam for cleaner, more responsive hydraulics. The 20-liter canister makes it ideal for tractors, excavators, presses, and factory machinery, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

When to Use / Replace?

• Use it when: Operating in moderate temperatures (-27°C to 90°C), needing proven pump protection for vane, piston, or gear systems, or matching OEM specs like Eaton E-FDGN-TB002-E.
• Replace every: 4,000-6,000 hours or 12-24 months in industrial setups, or 2,000-4,000 km/6-12 months in mobile equipment like construction gear, depending on contamination and load. Check fluid color and level monthly.
• Shelf life: Up to 5 years unopened in cool, dry storage.
