Continuous output torque is 260 N.m at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum of 416 N.m for intermittent peaks — the continuous figure governs the steady-state load, not the peak. Efficiency is listed at 94 %, meaning roughly 6 % of input power is lost as heat through the gear mesh and bearing friction — this matters for thermal management in enclosed cabinets. Noise level is 65 dB at 1 m under no-load conditions; expect a few dB higher under full load, but the straight-tooth design is inherently louder than helical gears at the same ratio. ## Mechanical limits and service life Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C — at higher speeds or ambient temperatures the life derates proportionally. The gearbox is lubricated for life, so no field greasing is required. Maximum axial force on the output shaft is 2100 N for the full 30,000-hour life, rising to 2800 N if you accept a shorter 10,000-hour life at the same speed. Radial force limits are 1500 N (30k h) and 2000 N (10k h), applied at mid-span of the shaft. Shaft output protection is IP54 — suitable for dry indoor environments but not washdown; the seal keeps dust and light splash out but won't survive direct hose spray. Torsional rigidity is 13 N.m/arcmin, and maximum backlash is 12 arc.min — this is a standard-precision gearbox, not a zero-backlash unit for servo positioning loops.","metaTitle":"Schneider GBX1200320552F planetary gearbox, 32:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200320552F planetary gearbox, 32:1 reduction, 260 N.m continuous torque, 94 % efficiency, IP54 shaft output.","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":"32:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"13 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"3681.9 lbf.in (416 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":"2301.2 lbf.in (260 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/53f9f2951eb19930bbf52d3357e504e5.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/uk/en/product/GBX1200320552F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-321-12arcmin-260-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200320552F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"How do I get current pricing and availability for GBX1200320552F?","answer":"Pricing and stock are confirmed at quote time against your required quantity.
