High Quality Industrial Steam & Gas Turbine Oils
Shell Turbo Oils T have long been regarded as the industry standard turbine oil. Building on this reputation, Shell
Turbo Oils T have been developed to offer improved performance capable of meeting the demands of the most
modern steam turbine systems and light duty gas turbines, which require no enhanced anti-wear performance for
the gearbox. Shell Turbo Oils T are formulated from high quality hydrotreated base Oils and a combination of
zinc-free additives that provide excellent oxidative stability, protection against rust & corrosion, low foaming and
excellent demulsibility.
Performance, Features & Benefits
- 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.
Main Applications
