The continuous output torque is 210 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, and the maximum output torque reaches 336 N.m under the same conditions — the margin between continuous and peak covers acceleration transients and occasional overloads without oversizing the gearbox. Torsional backlash is rated at 12 arc.min maximum — this is a standard-precision planetary stage, not a zero-backlash unit. For indexing or positioning axes where reversal error matters, the 12 arc.min figure sets the repeatability floor; a servo drive with encoder feedback can compensate, but the mechanical windup is still in the loop. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, which is typical for a single-stage planetary with straight teeth and oil lubrication. The 6 % loss is mostly gear mesh friction and bearing drag; at continuous 210 N.m output, that translates to roughly 13–15 W of heat dissipated inside the housing — the black anodised aluminium body (120 mm OD) radiates that without forced cooling in most panel-mount or machine-frame installations. ## Lifecycle status — obsolete, sourced through independent channels Schneider Electric lists the GBX1200090704F as obsolete. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ. No pin-compatible drop-in replacement is documented — a substitution would require checking the mounting flange, shaft diameter, and input interface against the existing installation. For a line-down situation or a BOM fill, the GBX1200090704F can be quoted to order against your required quantity. No stock-holding claim is made; each order is sourced per RFQ. ## Mechanical ratings — axial and radial load capacity, service life The output shaft (C 45 steel) is rated for a maximum axial force of 2100 N at 100 rpm over a 30,000-hour service life at 30 °C, and 2800 N if the life target is reduced to 10,000 hours. Radial force limits are 1500 N and 2000 N respectively, with the force applied at mid-distance from the output shaft. These are the bearing life limits — exceeding them shortens the L10 life faster than torque overload does. The gearbox is lubricated for life — no oil changes or regreasing intervals. The shaft output seal carries an IP54 rating, meaning it is dust-protected and splash-resistant but not submersible. Ambient operating range is -25 °C to 90 °C, which covers most indoor industrial environments and unheated machine sheds. Noise level is 65 dB at 1 m, no-load — this is the gear mesh whine from straight-cut teeth. Under load the level rises slightly with torque, but the 65 dB figure gives a baseline for machine noise budgeting. The 13 N.m/arcmin torsional rigidity figure means the gearbox twists about 0.077 arcmin per N.m of applied torque — negligible for most conveyor and rotary-indexing axes, but worth checking if the load has a high inertia-to-stiffness ratio.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200090704F Planetary Gearbox, 9:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200090704F planetary gearbox, 9:1 ratio, 336 Nm max 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":"65 dB 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","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"13 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"2973.8 lbf.in (336 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":"2100 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 2800 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"1500 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 2000 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"1858.7 lbf.in (210 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"4.7 in (120 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"12 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/7a4c86ad6754cd0144d0a3fc7241adb9.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/nz/en/product/GBX1200090704F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-91-12arcmin-210-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200090704F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is GBX1200090704F's listed efficiency?","answer":"The GBX1200090704F is rated at 94 % efficiency.
