Proven Performance of Mobilgear SHC XMP 320 starts With its Expertly Balanced Formulation

For wind turbine operators, the importance of using the right lubricants cannot be overstated.

Wind turbines are highly engineered and sophisticated pieces of machinery and whether they are located onshore or offshore, they are often subjected to some of the most demanding operating conditions.

To best protect critical wind turbine components, such as the main gearbox, it is essential to use a high-performance synthetic lubricant, like Mobilgear SHC XMP 320. To help maximise productivity and reduce unscheduled downtime, Mobilgear SHC XMP 320 has been formulated to offer high levels of performance in all the critical areas required to keep a gearbox working efficiently. This includes outstanding oxidative stability and water tolerance as well as excellent long term filterability, gear and bearing protection.

Today, Mobilgear SHC XMP 320 is used to protect more than 30,000 wind turbine gearboxes worldwide and is the initial-fill gear oil of choice for the majority of the world's top wind turbine builders. Even when Mobilgear SHC XMP 320 is not the initial fill gear oil, wind turbine operators frequently choose it for second-fill applications when the initial turbine warranty is up, usually after three to five years.

By comparison, as the chart to the left shows, some competitive synthetic gear oils are formulated specifically to deliver exceptional results in one area but often sacrifice performance in many other areas. Only by selecting an oil which has a balanced formulation can operators look towards maximising productivity. Source: ExxonMobil Research

It’s the balanced performance of Mobilgear SHC XMP 320 that offers the real value to wind turbine operators, supporting their efforts to reduce the total cost of operations and increase productivity.

In addition to Mobilgear SHC XMP 320, ExxonMobil offers a wide range of lubricants that are formulated to deliver exceptional protection for all parts of a wind turbine, including synthetic greases to lubricate bearings and hydraulic oils that help pitch rotor blades.
