Shell Morlina S1 B 100
Shell Morlina S1 B 100 is a high-performance industrial bearing and circulating oil designed to provide reliable lubrication and protection for a wide range of industrial machinery applications. Formulated using carefully selected solvent-refined base oils, the product delivers dependable performance in industrial circulation systems where equipment reliability and long service life are essential. The oil is particularly suited to applications where effective water separation is critical for maintaining equipment performance and protecting system components.
One of the key advantages of Shell Morlina S1 B 100 is its ability to provide reliable wear protection for bearings and circulating systems. Industrial machines often operate continuously under load, placing significant stress on bearings and lubrication systems. Shell Morlina S1 B 100 forms a stable lubricating film that helps reduce friction and minimise wear between moving metal surfaces. By maintaining this protective oil film, the lubricant helps extend the service life of bearings and associated components while supporting consistent equipment performance.
The oil also provides excellent water separation characteristics, which are essential in industrial environments where moisture contamination can occur. Effective demulsification allows water to separate quickly from the lubricant, ensuring that the oil film remains intact between loaded components. This capability helps protect equipment from corrosion and ensures reliable lubrication performance even when water contamination is present. Water that separates from the oil can then be removed easily through standard filtration or centrifuge systems.
Another important benefit of Shell Morlina S1 B 100 is its good air release characteristics. Air entrained within lubrication systems can lead to cavitation, reduced lubrication efficiency and potential pump damage. The oil is formulated to release air quickly, helping maintain stable lubrication performance and ensuring efficient operation of circulating pumps and oil distribution systems. This contributes to improved system reliability and reduced maintenance requirements.
Shell Morlina S1 B 100 also offers good resistance to oxidation, helping extend oil service life and reduce maintenance costs. By resisting thermal degradation and oxidation, the oil maintains its protective properties for longer periods, allowing machinery to operate efficiently over extended service intervals. This stability contributes to improved equipment reliability and lower operating costs for industrial facilities.
The oil is suitable for a range of industrial applications including machine circulation systems, oil-lubricated plain and rolling element bearings, roll-neck bearings and lightly loaded enclosed gear systems where extreme pressure performance is not required. It meets the Morgan MORGOIL® lubricant specification and the DIN 51517-1 Type C standard, confirming its suitability for use in a wide range of industrial lubrication systems.
Physical characteristics include an ISO viscosity grade of 100 with a kinematic viscosity of approximately 100 mm²/s at 40°C and 11.2 mm²/s at 100°C. The oil has a density of approximately 877 kg/m³ at 15°C, a flash point of approximately 243°C and a pour point of approximately –9°C, supporting reliable lubrication performance in typical industrial operating environments.
