Planetary gearbox, 40 mm, 4:1 reduction, 15 N.m continuous
The GBX0400041403F is a 40 mm-diameter planetary gearbox with a 4:1 reduction ratio, delivering 15 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. Maximum output torque reaches 24 N.m under the same conditions. Efficiency is listed at 94 % — that's the mechanical power transfer through the straight-tooth planetary stage, not counting motor losses. Noise level at 1 m, no-load, is 55 dB.
Lifecycle and sourcing — obsolete, no direct successor
Schneider Electric lists the GBX0400041403F as obsolete. Service life is rated 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with the gearbox lubricated for life — no maintenance re-greasing interval. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C.
Shaft loads and mounting
Maximum radial force (Fr) at mid-distance on the output shaft is 200 N for a 10,000-hour life, or 160 N for 30,000 hours, both at 100 rpm and 30 °C. Maximum axial force (Fa) follows the same derating curve. Shaft output seal is rated IP54 — suitable for dry indoor environments with light dust and splash exposure, but not for washdown. Housing is black anodized aluminium; shaft material is C45 steel.
