That multiplies motor torque by roughly the ratio, minus the 94 % efficiency loss, so a motor delivering 2 N.m at the input sees about 17 N.m at the output shaft. Continuous output torque is 16.5 N.m; the gearbox can handle peaks up to 26 N.m for short-duration loads. The continuous figure is the one to size against — exceeding it for sustained periods shortens the 30,000-hour service life at 100 rpm and 30 °C. ## Backlash, stiffness, and positioning precision Maximum torsional backlash is 35 arcmin — that is the angular play between input and output when the direction reverses. For a 9:1 gearbox this is a standard commercial-grade figure; if your application indexes to a hard stop or reverses frequently, budget for that lost motion in the position loop. Torsional rigidity is 1.1 N.m/arcmin — the shaft twists 1 arcmin for every 1.1 N.m of applied torque. This stiffness keeps windup low under steady load but matters most during acceleration where the reflected inertia (0.03 g.cm² at the input) resists the motor's torque ramp. ## Mounting, sealing, and environmental limits Mounts in any position — horizontal, vertical, or angled — with no derating. The black anodized aluminium housing is corrosion-resistant for indoor machine builds; the shaft output seal is rated IP54, meaning it keeps out dust and splashing water but is not submersible. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so there is no oil-change interval to schedule. The C 45 steel output shaft handles axial loads up to 200 N and radial loads up to 200 N (both at 100 rpm, mid-span, 10,000-hour life target). ## Noise, efficiency, and service life trade-offs Noise level is 55 dB at 1 m, no-load — quiet enough for a packaging line or lab environment. The straight-tooth cut is inherently noisier than helical at higher speeds, but at the output speeds this 9:1 ratio produces from a typical servo motor (300–600 rpm output), the noise stays within that 55 dB envelope. Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm output speed and 30 °C ambient. Derate the life if running at higher speeds, higher ambient temperatures, or continuous torque above 16.5 N.m — the axial and radial force ratings drop from 200 N to 160 N when extending life from 10,000 to 30,000 hours.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0400090582D Planetary Gearbox, 9:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0400090582D planetary gearbox, 40 mm diameter, 9:1 reduction, 16.5 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, IP54 shaft output.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Active","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"title":"GBX0400090582D","Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"55 dB at 1 m, no-load","description":"gearbox with straight teeth GBX- Ø 40 mm- reduction 9:1- < 35arcmin- 16.5 N.m","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,"stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/a044b4ebf32fc6aab70e2b41528b6346.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX0400090582D/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-40-mm-reduction-91-35arcmin-16-5-n-m/"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is GBX0400090582D's listed efficiency?","answer":"The gearbox is rated at 94 % efficiency.
