Shell Corena S3 R 46 VG 46

• Long oil life - Maintenance savings
• Shell Corena S3 R offers oil change intervals of 4,000 hours (based on the OEM recommended maintenance interval), even at operating temperatures above 100°C. Under certain conditions, this can be extended to 6,000 hours.

The advanced formulation of Shell Corena S3 R contributes to long oil life by :

• Resisting the formation of carbonaceous deposits in diaphragm compressors.
• Resisting the formation of deposits on rotating components in screw compressors.
• Resisting thermal breakdown and maintaining excellent cleanliness of internal surfaces, particularly in oil/air separators and coalescence filter systems.
• The maintenance interval depends on the quality of the intake air, operating and environmental conditions. For hot and humid climates such as those found in the Asia-Pacific region, an oil change interval of less than 4,000 hours is recommended (consult OEM recommendations).
• Excellent wear protection
• With years of successful application, Shell Corena S3 R provides effective protection of internal metal surfaces against corrosion and wear. It contains an advanced ashless anti-wear system that extends the life of critical components such as bearings and gears.
• Maintaining system efficiency
• Air separation capacity and anti-foaming properties are essential performance characteristics for a compressor oil to ensure reliable start-up and continuous availability of compressed air.
• Shell Corena S3 R provides rapid air separation without excessive foaming for efficient operation, even under severe operating conditions.
• In addition, Shell Corena S3 R provides excellent water separation to ensure continuous efficient operation of the compressor, even in the presence of water.
