The continuous output torque is 700 N.m at 100 rpm (30 °C ambient), with a maximum intermittent torque of 1120 N.m at the same speed. The 10 arcmin maximum torsional backlash places it in the standard-precision class — adequate for positioning conveyors, rotary indexing tables, and general motion axes where sub-arcmin repeatability is not required. For applications needing tighter positioning, a lower-backlash variant from the GBX family would be the better fit. ## Torque, life, and overhung load limits at 100 rpm Rated service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with the gearbox lubricated for life — no maintenance re-greasing interval to schedule. The 94 % efficiency means 6 % of input power is lost as heat, which the anodised aluminium housing (black) dissipates; at 700 N.m continuous output, the thermal loss is manageable in a ventilated enclosure. Maximum radial force (Fr) at the output shaft mid-point is 4200 N for the full 30,000-hour life, or 6000 N if you accept a reduced 10,000-hour service life. Maximum axial force (Fa) is 6000 N for 30,000 hours, 8000 N for 10,000 hours. These limits govern belt-drive or chain-sprocket loads directly mounted on the output shaft. Torsional rigidity is 41 N.m/arcmin — the stiffness constant for calculating wind-up under load. The shaft is C45 steel; the output seal is rated IP54, so the gearbox is splash-resistant but not washdown-rated. ## Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels Schneider Electric has marked the GBX1600150702F as obsolete. For a BOM that requires this exact frame size and ratio, the procurement path is a confirmed quote from the independent distribution network — no factory lead time applies.","metaTitle":"Schneider Electric GBX1600150702F planetary gearbox, 15:1","metaDescription":"Schneider Electric GBX1600150702F planetary gearbox, 15:1 ratio, 700 N.m continuous torque at 100 rpm, 94% efficiency, 10 arcmin backlash.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":"Obsolete","categoryPath":["Gear Reducers & Gearboxes"],"specifications":{"Efficiency":"94 %","Noise level":"70 dB 1 m, no-load","Gear box type":"Straight teeth","Housing Colour":"Black","Shaft material":"C 45","Reduction ratio":"15:1","lifecycle_stage":"current","Housing material":"Black anodized aluminium","Device short name":"GBX","Compatibility code":"GBX","Torsional rigidity":"41 N.m/arcmin","Maximum output torque":"9912.8 lbf.in (1120 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":"6000 N 100 rpm, during 30000 hour at 30°C 8000 N 100 rpm, during 10000 hour at 30°C","IP Degree of Protection":"Shaft output IP54","Maximum radial force Fr":"4200 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 30000 hour at 30 °C 6000 N 100 rpm, force applied at mid-distance from output shaft during 10000 hour at 30 °C","Continuous output torque":"6195.5 lbf.in (700 N.m) 100 rpm 86 °F (30 °C)","Gearbox external diameter":"6.3 in (160 mm)","Product or Component Type":"Planetary gearbox","Maximum torsional backlash":"10 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/272bb7e44d09d670d01c5501d8392014.pdf","sourceUrl":"https://www.se.com/ie/en/product/GBX1600150702F/gearbox-with-straight-teeth-gbx-ø-160-mm-reduction-151-10arcmin-700-n-m/","alternativesUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/api/mcp/products/GBX1600150702F/alternatives.json"},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What is the continuous torque rating of GBX1600150702F?","answer":"The continuous output torque is 700 N.m (6195.5 lbf.in) at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient.
