The 80 mm housing diameter and 16:1 reduction ratio match it to a 750 W to 1.5 kW motor class, depending on the duty cycle. Continuous output torque is 120 N·m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 192 N·m under the same conditions — the margin covers acceleration peaks without oversizing the gearbox. ## Backlash and torsional rigidity Maximum torsional backlash is 14 arcmin — standard precision for a straight-tooth planetary. For a positioning application with a 10:1 belt or ballscrew after the gearbox, that translates to roughly 0.2 mm of lost motion at the load; if the axis needs tighter repeatability, a low-backlash or helical planetary is the next step up. Torsional rigidity is 6.5 N·m/arcmin, meaning the gearbox wind-up under full continuous torque is about 18 arcmin — the system stiffness budget must account for this when tuning the servo loop. ## Lifecycle and sourcing Available through independent surplus and broker channels. The gearbox is lubricated for life and sealed to IP54 at the shaft output, so it can be dropped into a legacy machine without re-engineering the mounting or lubrication circuit. ## Operating envelope and noise Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — typical for a continuous-duty indexing table or conveyor drive. Noise level is 60 dB at 1 m, no-load — quiet enough for a machine tending cell or packaging line where operator exposure limits apply. The black anodized aluminium housing and C45 steel shaft resist corrosion in washdown-adjacent areas, though the IP54 shaft seal is not rated for direct spray.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0800161004F Planetary Gearbox, 16:1","metaDescription":"Obsolete Schneider Electric GBX0800161004F planetary gearbox, 80 mm diameter, 16:1 ratio, 120 N·m continuous torque.
