It delivers 16.5 N.m continuous output torque and peaks at 26 N.m maximum, with 94 % efficiency across the operating range. The continuous torque rating of 16.5 N.m is the figure that governs steady-state operation; the 26 N.m maximum output torque covers peak loads during acceleration or momentary overloads. Torsional rigidity is 1.1 N.m/arcmin — this tells you how much the output shaft twists under load, which matters for positioning accuracy in indexing or servo applications. Maximum torsional backlash is 35 arcmin — this is the angular play between input and output when direction reverses. For precision positioning, a lower-backlash gearbox would be needed; this unit suits applications where some lost motion is acceptable, such as conveyor drives or simple rotary indexing. Service life is rated at 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. The axial and radial force limits are 200 N at 100 rpm for 10,000 hours, derating to 160 N for the full 30,000-hour life — these are the loads the output shaft bearings can sustain when the force is applied at mid-span. ## Mounting, environment, and integration notes The gearbox can be mounted in any position, which simplifies panel or machine layout. The housing is black anodized aluminium; the output shaft is C45 steel. Shaft output sealing is IP54 — this means it is protected against dust ingress and splashing water, but not pressurized washdown. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C. The unit is lubricated for life — no maintenance refill schedule. Noise level is 55 dB at 1 m under no-load conditions, which is quiet enough for most indoor machinery without additional acoustic enclosures.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400090402D planetary gearbox, 9:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400090402D planetary gearbox, 9:1 reduction, 16.5 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, 55 dB noise.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"55 dB at 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"9:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Moment Of Inertia":"0.03 g.cm²","Mounting position":"Any position","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"1.1 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"26 N.m","Service life in hours":"30000 h at 100 rpm at 30 °C","Additional information":"Lubricated for life","Maximum axial force Fa":"200 N at 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C 160 N at 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C","IP degree of protection":"Shaft output: IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"200 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C 160 N at 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"16.5 N.m","Gearbox external diameter":"40 mm","Product or component type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"35 arc.min","Ambient Temperature For Operation":"-25...90 °C"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":null,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/22d7fa54dfd3e656f17137b82199b00b.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nl/en/product/GBX0400090402D/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-91-35arcmin-16-5-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0400090402D/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX0400090402D?","answer":"The continuous output torque is 16.5 N.m, with a maximum peak torque of 26 N.m."},{"question":"What is the efficiency and noise level of this gearbox?","answer":"Efficiency is listed at 94 %.
