Shell Turbo Oil T 100 Main Applications
- Industrial steam turbines & light duty gas turbines which require no enhanced anti-wear performance for the gearbox;
- Hydroelectric turbine lubrication;
- Numerous applications where strong control over rust and oxidation is required.
- Centrifugal and axial, dynamic turbo-compressors and pumps where an R&O type or turbine oil is recommended.
Shell Turbo Oil T 100 Performance, Features & Benefits:
- + Strong Control of Oxidation
- + High Resistance to Foaming and Rapid Air Release
- + Positive Water-Shedding Properties
- + Excellent Rust & Corrosion Protection
Performance, Features & Benefits of Shell Turbo Oil T 100
+ Strong Control of Oxidation
The use of inherently oxidatively stable base oils together with an effective inhibitor package provides high resistance to oxidative degradation. The result is extended oil life, minimising the formation of aggressive corrosive acids, deposits and sludge, reducing your operating costs.
+ High Resistance to Foaming and Rapid Air Release
The oils are formulated with an anti-foam additive, which generally controls foam formation. This feature coupled with fast air-release from the lubricant reduces the possibility of problems such as pump cavitation, excessive wear and premature oil oxidation, giving you increased system reliability.
+ Positive Water-Shedding Properties
Robust demulsibility control such that excess water, common-place in steam turbines, can be drained easily from the lubrication system, minimising corrosion and premature wear, lowering the risk of unplanned maintenance.
+ Excellent Rust & Corrosion Protection
Prevents the formation of rust and guards against onset of corrosion ensuring protection for equipment following exposure to humidity or water during operation and during shut-downs, minimising maintenance
