Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2
Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 is based on carefully selected, highly refined mineral oils chosen for their ability to provide
superior performance in indirect closed fluid heat transfer systems.
System efficiency Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 can be used in high temperature
Low viscosity enables excellent fluidity and heat transfer over a continuous heat transfer equipment with the following
wide temperature range. Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 also has application limits:
a low vapour pressure so resists cracking. This minimises the
formation of volatile decomposition products; these would
Max. film temperature : 320C
require recovery via expansion chamber and condensate Max. bulk temperature : 300C
collector. Specifications, Approvals & Recommendations
Pour Point 0
C ISO 3016 -12
Autoignition temperature 0
C DIN 51794 332
These characteristics are typical of current production. Whilst future production will conform to Shell's specification, variations in
these characteristics may occur.
Health, Safety & Environment
Avoid contact with skin. Use impervious gloves with used oil. After skin contact, wash immediately with soap and water.
Guidance on Health and Safety is available on the appropriate Material Safety Data Sheet, which can be obtained from

Additional Information
Advice
The life of Shell Heat Transfer Oil S2 depends on the design and usage of the system. If the system is well designed and not
subjected to abnormal workloads, the life can be for many years.
It is important to monitor oil condition regularly as rates of change in physical characteristics are more significant than actual
values. The properties that should be monitored are viscosity, acidity, flash point (open and closed) and insolubles content.
