Shell PANOLIN S4 HLP Synth 15 Hydraulic oil biodegradable HEES 209L

Shell PANOLIN S4 HLP Synth 15 is a biodegradable hydraulic oil (ISO VG 15) designed for industrial applications. It offers high viscosity stability, wear protection, and anti-scuffing properties, making it suitable for demanding conditions.

• Pack size: 209 l drum
• Also available in: 20 l canister

Applications

• Suitable for stationary and mobile hydraulic systems, including:
  • Construction, earthmoving, and forestry equipment
  • Hydroelectric engineering
  • Marine and deck equipment (e.g., stabilizers, steering systems)
  • Industrial machinery
• Also used in compressors, bearing lubrication, and oil circulation systems.
• Ideal for environmentally sensitive areas like coastal or marine environments where eco-label compliance is required.

Specifications & Approvals

• ISO 15380 HEES
• ISO 4263-3
• Biodegradable OECD 301B >60%
• Meets the requirements for EU Ecolabel - NL/027/028

Characteristics

• Provides exceptional protection for hydraulic components, reducing wear even under high-pressure conditions.
• Extremely low pour point ensures safe operation and startup in cold climates, minimizing metal-on-metal wear.
• Maintains performance across a wide temperature range, improving hydraulic efficiency compared to conventional mineral oils.
• Prevents gumming and deposits, even at high temperatures, ensuring clean system operation.
• Reduces CO2 emissions due to longer oil life and less frequent fluid replacement.

Product description

Shell PANOLIN S4 HLP Synth EAL has an extended oil life and is designed to help equipment operate without interruptions. Longer oil-drain intervals mean less oil being produced, purchased and disposed of. Shell PANOLIN S4 HLP Synth EAL has good oxidative stability which results in reduced fluid degradation, reducing filter blockage and increased viscosity. This helps prevent component failures, frequent filter and fluid changes, downtime, fluid consumption and parts and labour costs.
Shell PANOLIN S4 HLP Synth EAL has good cold flow behaviour which enables a safe start even in cold conditions, thereby reducing the risk of metal-on-metal wear. In addition to protecting the machine over a wide temperature operating range, high viscosity index fluids help enable increased hydraulic efficiency, in comparison to typical HM mineral oil.

Health and Safety

This product is unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application and good standards of personal hygiene are maintained. Avoid contact with skin. Use impervious gloves with used oil. After skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water.
