Shell Morlina S4 B 220
Shell Morlina S4 B 220 is a high-performance synthetic bearing and circulating oil designed to provide advanced lubrication performance in demanding industrial machinery and circulation systems. Manufactured using high-quality synthetic base fluids and advanced additive technology, the lubricant delivers outstanding reliability, improved energy efficiency and extended service life compared with conventional mineral oil-based products. The oil is engineered to perform effectively in modern industrial equipment operating under challenging conditions where long oil life and reliable component protection are critical.
A key advantage of Shell Morlina S4 B 220 is its exceptional oxidation and hydrolytic stability. Industrial lubrication systems often operate at elevated temperatures and may be exposed to moisture or contaminants. The highly stable synthetic base oils combined with robust rust and oxidation inhibitors help resist oxidation and chemical degradation, even in demanding operating environments. This stability helps extend lubricant life, maintain oil cleanliness and reduce the formation of harmful oxidation products that could compromise equipment reliability.
Shell Morlina S4 B 220 also provides excellent wear and corrosion protection for bearings and circulating lubrication systems. The advanced additive system delivers strong anti-wear performance that helps protect both plain and rolling element bearings as well as moderately loaded gearboxes. By forming a durable lubricating film between metal surfaces, the oil reduces friction and protects components from wear, helping extend the operational life of bearings and gear components. The formulation also provides outstanding rust and corrosion protection for metal surfaces within the lubrication system.
Another important benefit of Shell Morlina S4 B 220 is its ability to enhance system efficiency and potentially reduce energy consumption. The synthetic formulation provides excellent low temperature performance and reduced viscosity variation as operating temperatures change. This allows improved lubrication during cold start conditions while reducing pumping and flow losses during normal operation. As a result, equipment can operate more efficiently and may benefit from reduced energy consumption.
Shell Morlina S4 B 220 also offers excellent filterability, water separation and air release characteristics. These properties help maintain clean lubrication systems by allowing contaminants, air and water to separate quickly from the oil. Maintaining clean oil helps ensure consistent lubrication performance and protects machinery from potential damage caused by contamination.
The lubricant is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications including bearing and circulating oil systems containing plain or rolling element bearings. It can also be used in moderately loaded gearboxes, worm gear drives, vacuum pumps and gear systems operating under varying temperature conditions. Shell Morlina S4 B 220 is commonly used in heavy industrial environments such as cement plants, quarrying operations and manufacturing facilities that require reliable high-performance lubrication.
The product meets or exceeds key industry standards including ISO 12925-1 Type CKD, DIN 51517-3 CLP and ANSI/AGMA 9005. It is also approved by several major equipment manufacturers including Siemens/VAI Morgan “Morgoil®”, Voith Paper and Valmet Paper.
Physical characteristics include a kinematic viscosity of approximately 220 mm²/s at 40°C and 28 mm²/s at 100°C with a viscosity index of approximately 164. The oil has a density of approximately 852 kg/m³ at 15°C, a flash point of approximately 275°C and a pour point of approximately –45°C, supporting reliable lubrication performance across a wide range of industrial operating conditions.
