With a 20:1 reduction ratio, it steps down input speed by a factor of 20 while multiplying torque by roughly the same factor, minus the 94% efficiency loss — meaning about 6% of the input power is lost as heat in the gear mesh. Continuous output torque is 120 N.m at 100 rpm and 30°C ambient; the gearbox can deliver up to 192 N.m peak under the same conditions, but the duty cycle must respect the thermal limits of the black anodized aluminium housing. ## Backlash, service life, and mounting constraints Maximum torsional backlash is 14 arcmin — this is a standard-precision grade, not a zero-backlash unit. If the application requires positioning repeatability under a few arcminutes, this gearbox introduces enough lost motion to affect final position holding in reversing drives. Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30°C, lubricated for life — no oil changes or regreasing intervals. The shaft output seal is rated IP54, so the gearbox handles dust and splash but not pressurized washdown or submersion. Maximum radial force on the output shaft is 650 N at mid-span for the full 30,000-hour life, or 950 N if you accept a 10,000-hour service interval. Axial force is limited to 1200 N for 10,000 hours or 900 N for 30,000 hours — overloading the bearings shortens life faster than the gear teeth wear. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Schneider Electric lists the GBX0800201004F as obsolete — no longer in active factory production. Available through independent surplus and broker channels. Quantities are lot-specific; each unit is inspected for runtime and condition before quoting. The 30,000-hour service life rating means a low-hours pull from a decommissioned line still has substantial remaining life for a new installation. No stock-holding claim; each procurement is a fresh cross-check against the surplus market.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX0800201004F Planetary Gearbox, 20:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX0800201004F planetary gearbox, 20:1 reduction, 120 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, 14 arcmin backlash.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"60 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"20:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"6.5 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"1699.3 lbf.in (192 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":"1200 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C 900 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"650 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 950 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"1062.09 lbf.in (120 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"3.1 in (80 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"14 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/bf2272fa22fdb48a647ff488e66629df.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ca/en/product/GBX0800201004F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-80-mm-reduction-201-14arcmin-120-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX0800201004F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX0800201004F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 120 N.m at 100 rpm and 30°C ambient.
