A. Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 is designed for hydraulic systems requiring a high-viscosity-index anti-wear hydraulic oil. The ISO VG 32 viscosity is positioned for mobile-equipment hydraulics and cool-ambient operations, with the high-VI formulation particularly suited to cold-climate mobile hydraulic equipment.
A. Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 is supplied at ISO VG 32 — the lighter mobile-equipment hydraulic viscosity.
A. Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 meets ASTM D6158; and DIN 51524.
A. The 'VX' designation indicates the high-viscosity-index variant of the Shell Tellus S2 range, suited to hydraulic systems operating across varied ambient temperatures.
A. Both are Shell Tellus S2 VX premium high-VI anti-wear hydraulic oils with the same classifications. VX 32 (this product) is ISO VG 32 — the lighter viscosity for cold-climate or mobile hydraulics. VX 46 is ISO VG 46 — the standard general-service viscosity.
A. Yes, Shell Tellus S2 VX 32 is positioned for long oil life. The actual drain interval should be set per the hydraulic equipment manufacturer's recommendation and verified through used-oil analysis.
A. API and ACEA are the universal lubricant performance standards every reputable oil meets. They are your baseline check — match the code your handbook specifies (e.g., API CI-4 or ACEA E7 for heavy-duty diesel) and the oil is technically suitable for your machine. Every oil on our site lists its API and ACEA classifications.
A. An OEM Specification is the lubricant requirement set by a vehicle or equipment manufacturer (e.g., MB 228.3, VW 504.00). When an oil lists the code, the oil manufacturer has developed and tested it to meet the criteria the equipment manufacturer requires. Match the code in your handbook and you have a lubricant engineered for your machine.
A. An OEM Approval means the oil has been formally tested and signed off by the equipment manufacturer and listed on their official approved-products register (e.g., MB-Approval 228.3). An Approval confirms the oil is recognised by the equipment manufacturer for service use in their machines.
