It delivers a continuous output torque of 15 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 24 N.m under the same conditions. Efficiency sits at 94 %, and the torsional backlash is 30 arcmin — a standard figure for this class of straight-tooth planetary stage. The noise level at 1 m under no-load is 55 dB. ## Shaft loads and service life — what the ratings mean Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C. The maximum axial force (Fa) is 200 N for a 10,000-hour target, dropping to 160 N for the full 30,000-hour life. Radial force (Fr) follows the same pattern: 200 N for 10,000 hours, 160 N for 30,000 hours, with the force applied at mid-distance from the output shaft. The shaft is C45 steel, the housing is black anodized aluminium, and the shaft output seal carries IP54 protection — suitable for indoor environments where dust and splash are present but not pressurized washdown. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no maintenance schedule for oil changes — a sealed unit that runs until the grease degrades at end of service life. ## Sourcing reality — obsolete, sourced to order This part is marked obsolete by Schneider Electric. Availability is through independent surplus and broker channels — quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. For a BOM that calls out this exact order code, the sourcing posture is quoted-to-order against the required quantity. No stock-holding claim; each lot is verified for authenticity and condition before shipment.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400040703F Planetary Gearbox, 4:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400040703F planetary gearbox, 40 mm diameter, 4:1 reduction, 15 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"55 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"4:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"1 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"212.4 lbf.in (24 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Nbr. of units in pkg.":"1","Service life in hours":"30000 h 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"200 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C 160 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"200 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C 160 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"132.8 lbf.in (15 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"1.6 in (40 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"30 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-13...194 °F (-25...90 °C)"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/84cb893cc6bc3f71a229d7fdfa5fefb6.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/us/en/product/GBX0400040703F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-41-30arcmin-15-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0400040703F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is GBX0400040703F's continuous torque rating?","answer":"The continuous output torque is 15 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C.
