AUTOMOTIVE LUBRICANTS
Donax* TC – Premium transmission fluid
for caterpillar Powershift transmissions –
caterpillar TO-4 approved 1.31

Donax TC was specifically designed for modern Caterpillar


transmissions. It provides excellent compatibility with
transmission components and premium frictional characteristics
to maximize equipment performance.
Applications:
• Donax TC is specifically designed for Caterpillar
transmissions with Variable Capacity Torque Convertors
(VCTC), which are more sensitive to fluid quality
• It is also recommended for torque convertors, hoists brakes
and hydraulic systems lubricated from a common sump,
which are typically found in 777B, 785 and 789 series off-

AUTOMOTIVE
highway trucks
• Donax TC exceeds the requirements of Caterpillar TO-2 and
TO-4 for powershift transmissions
• Donax TC 10W and 30 are Allison C-3/C-4 approved

Advantages:
• Improved Transmission Life – a key factor limiting
transmission life in modern equipment is the compatibility of
new friction materials such as F-37 and Rayflex with engine
oils
• Active nitrogen containing components commonly found in
many engine oils, can cause these friction materials to become
brittle and break up resulting in reduced transmission life.
Donax TC is formulated without aggressive nitrogen
containing components to ensure maximum life of clutch
frictional materials
• Superior Frictional Characteristics – improved efficiency
– a second concern being encountered with newer
transmissions, particularly in transmissions with VCTC’s, is
the phenomenon of “torque convertor stall”. Effectively the
clutch slips at heavy loads limiting the performance of the
equipment. Donax TC is specially balanced formulation with
frictional characteristics to help consistently maximize the
output of your equipment, particularly when moving heavy
loads
• Versatility – Donax TC is formulated as an SAE 10W, 30,
and 50 to provide you with seasonal flexibility. These oils are
not formulated with Viscosity Index Improvers and hence
comply with Caterpillar’s lubrication recommendations.
(Multi-graded oils are no longer recommended for powershift
transmissions by Caterpillar)

Donax* TC Multi-Season – Premium multigrade
transmission fluid for Caterpillar transmissions 1.32

Donax TC Multi-Season is specifically designed for modern


Caterpillar transmissions. It provides excellent compatibility
with transmission components and premium frictional
characteristics to maximize equipment performance. It utilizes
the same performance additive package used in Shell Donax
TC single grades, all of which are fully approved for Caterpillar
TO-4 transmission fluid specifications
Applications:
• Donax TC Multi-season is specifically designed for
Caterpillar transmissions that require Caterpillar TO-4 fluids
but also require better low temperature flow.
• Donax TC Multi-season meets Allison C-3/C-4 fluid

AUTOMOTIVE
requirements as well as Caterpillar TO-2 specifications for
powershift transmissions. Caterpillar’s TO-4 transmission
fluid specifications do not include the opportunity for formal
approval of multigrade oils, however Caterpillar does have
recommendations for the use of multigrades provided they
use the same performance additive package as approved single
grades.

Advantages:
• Improved Transmission Life - A key factor limiting
transmission life in modern equipment is the compatibility of
new friction materials such as F-37 and Rayflex with engine
oils. Active nitrogen containing components commonly
found in many engine oils can cause these friction materials
to become brittle and break up resulting in reduced
transmission life.
• Donax TC Multi-season is formulated without aggressive
nitrogen containing components to ensure maximum life of
clutch frictional materials.
• In addition Donax TC Multi-season is formulated to provide
superior anti-wear protection, anti-foaming characteristics
and oxidation stability resulting in longer equipment life.

Omala* F –
Premuim Quality Industrial Gear Oil 6.13

Omala F oil is a premium quality, lead-free, extreme-pressure


oils designed, primarily, for the lubrication of heavy-duty
industrial gears. Their high load carrying capacity and anti-
friction characteristics combine to offer superior performance in
gears and other industrial applications.

Omala F is formulated using high viscosity index, solvent


refined, base oils and incorporate a special sulphur-phosphorus
additive to provide an extreme pressure performance
significantly better than that provided by leaded gear oils.
Omala F oil is formally approved by Flender AG.

Applications:
• Steel gear transmissions
• Industrial gear drives where a full EP performance is required
• Bearings
• Circulating and splash lubricated systems
• Omala F should not be used for automotive hypoid gears.
The appropriate Spirax* Oil should be used for this purpose

Advantages:
• Excellent load carrying and anti-friction characteristics –
reduces gear tooth and bearing wear on both steel and bronze
components
• Outstanding oxidation and thermal stability – withstands
high thermal loading and resists the formation of sludge
and other harmful products of oxidation. Extended oil life,
even with bulk oil temperatures up to 100°C in certain
applications
• Effective corrosion inhibition – protects both steel and
bronze components, even in the presence of contamination
by water and solids
• Lead-free – operator acceptability. Reduced health risk
• Resistant to micro-pitting – standard setting anti micro-
pitting performance to reduce the risk of premature failure
through surface distress
• Water shedding properties – Omala F oils have excellent
water separation properties. Excess water can be drained
easily from lubrication systems. (Water can greatly accelerate
surface fatigue on gears and bearings as well as promoting
ferrous corrosion on internal surfaces. Water contamination
should be avoided or removed as quickly as possible after the
occurrence)

customers improve the energy efficiency of their hydraulic
systems without compromising the protection of the system
or maintenance procedures of their equipment and operations.
Tellus EE has been found to improve energy efficiency in
applications such as plastic injection molding and metal
pressing by an average of 8%. In addition, Tellus EE is also
designed to help equipment service life and lower maintenance
costs through providing outstanding wear protection and long
oil life capability.
Tellus EE hydraulic fluids are available in ISO 22 and 46
grades.

Applications:
• Industrial hydraulic systems
• Mobile hydraulic fluid power transmission systems
• Marine hydraulic systems

Advantages:
• Energy efficiency: The formulation adopted allows to achieve
energy savings, on average up to 8% as demonstrated in
field trials, thanks to the following three elements: the fluid
density, the frictional properties and high viscosity index. The
first two are the drivers for systems operating in a stationary
condition while the third one playa a key role in the case
of variable operating conditions. Tellus EE hydraulic fluids
contain a patented additive technology
• Help the environment: Achieving energy efficiency means
reducing CO2 emissions thus contributing to reducing
environmental impact
• Reduce maintenance costs Tellus EE hydraulic fluids offer
outstanding performance in all the properties relevant to an
hydraulic fluid, enabling you to operate your machinery in a
reliable and efficient manner
As with other fluids in the next generation Tellus range, use
of Tellus EE hydraulic fluids helps you minimize problems
such as: sludge build up, valve sticking, increased wear, filter
blocking, corrosion and contamination
By using Tellus EE you can therefore: guard against
equipment damage (pump, filter, seals, valve, hose)
avoiding premature failure and replacement thus increasing
productivity while reducing maintenance costs
• Longer oil drain intervals: The usage of synthetic base fluids
in the formulation increases the oil drain interval achievable

ILSAC Specifications

THE ILSAC MINIMUM PERFORMANCE STANDARDS


FOR PASSENGER CAR ENGINE OILS

The Japan Automobile Manufacturers Association, Inc. and


representatives from DaimlerChrysler Corporation, Ford Motor
Company and General Motors Corporation, through an organization
called the International Lubricants Standardization and Approval
Committee (ILSAC), jointly develop and approve Lubricants to ILSAC
specifications. Development and use of ILSAC specifications began in
the 1990s. Oils conforming to ILSAC specifications display the API
Certification Mark, also known as the ILSAC Starburst.
While the Starburst remains the same for oils complying with ILSAC,
the specification upgrades are identified by “GF-?” codes. These codes

are often referred to in product label text, or in printed product data


sheets in order to communicate the version of ILSAC specification
with which a product conforms. Older ILSAC specifications become
obsolete as newer ones are developed and the performance defined by
newer specifications is acceptable for applications where older versions
are specified.

Many ILSAC members only specify engine oil requirements by


ILSAC specification or the starburst. API specifications are often no
longer even quoted in owners manuals. Another unique feature of
the ILSAC system is that its performance requirements are limited
to 0W-xx, 5W-xx, 10W-xx oil viscosity grades that actually pass the
ILSAC requirements. So there can never be an ILSAC approved 15W-
APPENDIX

40 as this grade is not included in the ILSAC definition. So where a


manufacturer recommends an ILSAC approved engine oil they are not
only specifying engine performance, but also restricting the viscosity

349
APPENDIX
ILSAC Specifications

grades of oil used to those specified by the latest ILSAC definition.


“Similar” performance to an ILSAC Specification can be found in
heavier viscosity grades identified with the API Service Symbol
Classification(the API “S” classification) corresponding to the ILSAC
“GF-x” version.

ILSAC GF-1: (corresponds to API SH)

ILSAC GF-2: Introduced in 1997(corresponds to API SJ), it


upgraded requirements for phosphorus content, as well as improved
low temperature operation, high temperature deposits and foam
control.

ILSAC GF-3: Introduced in 2001(corresponds to API SL) ), it


upgraded requirements for long-term emission system durability and
improved fuel economy as well as improved performance in the areas
of volatility and deposit control, viscosity retention, additive depletion
over the oils service life and reduced oil consumption rates.

ILSAC GF-4: Introduced in 2005 (corresponds to API SM),


it upgraded requirements for improvement in emissions system
durability, low temperature oil pumpability, robustness in high
temperature high load performance, as well as fuel economy and fuel
economy retention.

API SERVICE CI-4:


CI-4 oils are formulated to sustain engine durability where exhaust
gas recirculation (EGR) is used and are intended for use with diesel
fuels ranging in sulphur content up to 0.5% weight. Introduced in
September, 2002 for high speed 4-cycle diesel engines designed to
meet 2004 emission standards, implemented in 2002.

API SERVICE CI-4 PLUS:


Oils conforming to this specification have been upgraded from API
CI-4 with additional viscosity retention and soot control for EGR
equipped high speed 4-cycle diesel engines. Introduced in September
2004.

API SERVICE CATEGORY CJ-4:


API Service Category CJ-4 describes oils for use in high-speed
four-stroke cycle diesel engines designed to meet 2007 model year
on-highway exhaust emission standards as well as for previous model
years. These oils are especially effective at sustaining emission
control system durability where particulate filters and other advanced
aftertreatment systems are used.
API CJ-4 engine oils can be used in all applications with diesel fuels
ranging in sulfur content up to 500 ppm (0.05% by weight). Use of
greater than 15 ppm (0.0015% by weight) sulfur fuel in 2007 engines
may impact exhaust aftertreatment system durability. When using
CJ-4 oil with higher than 15 ppm sulfur fuel, consult the engine
manufacturer for the recommended service interval.
API CJ-4 oils exceed the performance criteria of API CI-4 with CI-4
PLUS, CI-4, CH-4, CG-4 and CF-4 and can effectively lubricate
engines calling for those API Service Categories.
Introduced October 2006.

Grease Thickeners

Greases generally consist of a base oil with additives plus a thickening


agent to create the semi-solid nature of a grease. The thickeners may
contain lithium, calcium, aluminum or barium components or be
made of polyurea or clay etc. “Complex” greases are a newer type of
thickener technology (than “Simple Soap”) and tend to improve the
high temperature capability of the grease.

About Shell Canada’s major greases:

Lithium soap greases have been around for many years and
their multipurpose nature allows them to satisfy over 80% of all
applications. However, for severe applications, other technologies may
have advantages.

Lithium Complex greases maintain most of the multipurpose nature


of lithium greases but perform better at high temperatures and can
have better mechanical stability. In general, “Complex” greases
tend to have greater compatibility problems with other greases than
conventional soap greases.

Calcium soap greases have better water resistance and mechanical


stability than lithium greases, but are not suitable for high
temperatures.

Calcium Sulfonate greases are known for their outstanding water


resistance and corrosion protection as well as being excellent high
temperature greases.

Mixed Lithium Calcium greases combine the advantage of both


technologies, with excellent high temperature and mechanical stability
properties.

“Microgel” clay greases are excellent multipurpose products with


extreme high temperature and mechanical stability capabilities.

Polyurea greases have excellent long life and natural antiwear


properties but are better suited to some specialized applications rather
than multipurpose use.

APPENDIX
Grease Compatibility

Different greases may not be compatible with each other.


Incompatibility may be caused by the different thickening agents used
or by the different additives used in greases. Thickener incompatibility
usually results in the mixture becoming thinner than anticipated.
Other detrimental effects are possible.

Due to the complexity of this problem and its potential seriousness,


and as opinions vary as to which types of greases are compatible, we
have chosen not to include a grease compatibility chart.

“RULE OF THUMB”
As a general rule of thumb, it is best to assume that all different types
and brands of greases are NOT COMPATIBLE with each other.
When changing from one grease to another it is best to completely
clean the grease cavity and lubricated surfaces. If this is not possible, a
thorough purge of the system should be performed.

Incompatibility problems are more critical in equipment operating at


higher temperatures, speeds and loads.

SHELL CANADA’S GREASES


The Lithium, Calcium and mixed Lithium-Calcium greases, as
manufactured by Shell Canada, are compatible with each other
and our “Microgel” clay based greases. Clay based greases can be
incompatible with a wide range of thickeners and additive technologies
but Shell Canada’s Research has improved this technology beyond that
of other clay based greases, such that compatibility problems are much
less of an issue.

SRS 2000 greases based on calcium sulfonate technology are known


to have compatibility issues with lithium complex and aluminum
complex type greases.

For further information on specific grease compatibility, contact the


Customer Service Center at 1-800-661-1771.
