Rated for 230 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 368 N.m at the same speed and temperature. ## Torque, backlash, and service life Continuous torque is 230 N.m (2035.7 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C; maximum output torque reaches 368 N.m (3257.07 lbf.in) under the same conditions — the margin above continuous is about 60% for short-duration peaks. Maximum torsional backlash is 12 arc.min, and torsional rigidity is 13 N.m/arcmin — the stiffness figure tells you how much wind-up you get under load, which matters for positioning accuracy in indexing or servo-follower applications. Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, and the gearbox is lubricated for life — no maintenance oil changes, which simplifies installation in sealed or hard-to-access locations. ## Shaft loads and IP protection Maximum axial force (Fa) on the output shaft is 2100 N for the 30,000-hour life rating, or 2800 N for a 10,000-hour duty cycle at 100 rpm and 30 °C. Maximum radial force (Fr) applied at mid-distance from the output shaft is 1500 N for 30,000 hours, or 2000 N for 10,000 hours at the same speed and temperature. Shaft output is rated IP54 — suitable for indoor industrial environments with dust and splash exposure, but not for washdown or submersion. ## Lifecycle and sourcing Available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities are lot-specific and confirmed at RFQ.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1200400554F Planetary Gearbox, 40:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1200400554F planetary gearbox, 40:1 ratio, 230 N.m continuous torque, 94% efficiency, 65 dB noise.","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":"40:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"13 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"3257.07 lbf.in (368 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":"2035.7 lbf.in (230 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/39b5f6cb87d172009b7b797ed37a4be8.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX1200400554F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-120-mm-reduction-401-12arcmin-230-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1200400554F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX1200400554F?","answer":"Continuous output torque is 230 N.m (2035.7 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C."},{"question":"What is the noise level of this gearbox?","answer":"Noise level is 65 dB at 1 m, no-load — roughly the sound of a quiet office or a small fan."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX1200400554F","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/schneider/GBX1200400554F when reusing this data.
