Morlina S 4 B

Advanced Bearing & Circulating Oils

Performance Benefits

Long oil life – Maintenance saving

The use of highly stable synthetic base oils in conjunction with a robust rust and oxidation inhibitor package helps provide excellent oxidation and thermal stability. This provides Shell Morlina S4 B with extending maintenance capability compared to conventional oils.

In addition it resists the formation of harmful products of oxidation at high operating temperatures, to help maintain system cleanliness and therefore reliability of the equipment.

Excellent wear & corrosion protection

Shell Morlina S4 B has been formulated to provide excellent anti-wear performance and provides high levels of wear protection for plain and rolling element bearings and moderately loaded gearboxes, compared to mineral oil-based products. This helps provide superior gear and bearing component life.

In addition it also provides outstanding rust and corrosion protection of all metal surfaces.

Enhancing system efficiency

Shell Morlina S4 B can help improve the efficiency of lubrication in bearing and circulating systems. The superior low temperature performance and reduced change in viscosity with increase in temperature in comparison to mineral oil-based products provides better lubrication at low start-up temperatures and the opportunity for energy savings through reduced pumping and flow losses during normal operating conditions. Rapid water shedding and air release properties further enhance the efficiency of the lubrication system by helping maintain critical oil films between loaded components.

Applications

Severe operating conditions

Shell Morlina S4 B is recommended for systems incuding moderately loaded gearboxes, operating under severe conditions such as low or high temperatures or with wide temperature variations.

Lubricated for life systems

The long oil life of Shell Morlina S4 B makes is suitable for use in certain ‘lubricated-for-life’ systems.

Bearing and circulating oil systems

Suitable for use in systems containing plain or rolling element bearings, including those highly loaded bearings found in such as those found in cement or quarrying applications.

Seal & Paint Compatibility

Shell Morlina S4 B is compatible with all seal materials and paints normally specified for use with mineral oils.

Change over procedure

Shell Morlina S4 B is compatible with petroleum mineral oils and no special change-over procedure is necessary. However, to realise the full benefits, it should not be mixed with other oils. It is also advisable to ensure that oil systems are clean and free from contamination to optimse potential service life.
