Shell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY - Schmierstoff-Datenbank

Previous Name: Shell Corena EShell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PYSpecial Application Ethylene Gas Compressor Oil• EXTRA PERFORMANCE• IMPROVED EFFICIENCYShell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants are synthetic blends designed for total losslubrication of the cylinders of reciprocating hypercompressors in the manufacture of lowdensity polyethylene (LDPE), including LDPE used in special applications such as food,pharmaceuticals and cable insulation, and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA). Low feed rates andhigh quality components help ensure minimal impact on production quality of the finishedpolymers.Performance Benefits• Outstanding wear protectionShell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants areformulated with an effective load carrying additivesystem to ensure protection of sliding componentseven at low feed rates.• Maintaining production efficiencySince hypercompressor cylinder lubricants are totalloss systems, traces of the lubricant can appear inthe finished LDPE and impact the suitability of thepolymer for certain applications.Shell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants areformulated with medicinal white oil components thatensure suitability of the polymer for the widest rangeof polymer end uses, including pharmaceutical andfood applications, thus providing operators withproduction flexibility.Applications• Extreme high pressure hypercompressorsShell Gas Compressor Oils S3 PY lubricants havebeen in widespread use in hypercompressorapplications for over 10 years.The ISO 220 viscosity grade provides low feed ratesfor lower oil content in the end-polymer but requiresthe use of elevated temperature line heating.The ISO 150 grade allows the use of cylinder feedsystems with standard trace heating.• Food grade applications.Shell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants meetthe requirements of the US FDA for incidentalfood contact.• Pharmaceutical grade applicationsThe oils are suitable for use in manufacture ofpolymers for use in applications where they willbe in contact with pharmaceuticals.• LDPE insulationUse of Shell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PYlubricants enable production of LDPE with gooddielectric properties, suitable for cable insulation.Specifications and ApprovalsShell Gas Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants complywith FDA/USA 21 CFR 178.3570 for incidentalfood contact, and with European Directive2002/72/EC, Annex V, for plastics used in foodcontact. The base fluid meets the requirements ofFDA/USA 21 CFR 178.3620 for medicinal whiteoils.Shell Compressor Oil S3 PY lubricants have beentested by major OEMs for hypercompressors, suchas Burckhardt Compression AG, Dresser-Rand andNuovo Pignone, and approved for certainapplications.More detailed information for specific installationscan be obtained from your Shell representative.Shell LubricantsPage 1 of 201/04/2010
