Planetary gearbox, 80 mm frame, 4:1 reduction
The GBX0800041401F is a Schneider Electric planetary gearbox with straight-cut teeth, 80 mm outer diameter, and a 4:1 reduction ratio. It delivers 115 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum intermittent torque of 184 N.m under the same conditions. Rated efficiency is 94 %, and the unit is lubricated for life — no maintenance schedule for oil changes. The housing is black anodized aluminium; the output shaft is C45 steel.
Load ratings and service life at 100 rpm
Service life is 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C ambient. At that operating point, the maximum axial force on the output shaft is 1200 N for 10,000 hours, or 900 N for the full 30,000-hour life. Maximum radial force (applied mid-shaft) is 950 N for 10,000 hours, or 650 N for 30,000 hours. Torsional rigidity is 6 N.m/arcmin, and maximum torsional backlash is 9 arcminutes. The IP54 rating on the shaft output means it resists dust ingress and splashing water — suitable for environments where washdown is occasional, not continuous. Noise level at 1 m, no-load, is 60 dB — comparable to a quiet office environment.
Obsolete — sourcing through independent channels
Schneider Electric lists the GBX0800041401F as obsolete. This gearbox is available through independent surplus and broker channels. Quantities are confirmed at RFQ — each unit is inspected for runtime and condition before it ships. The lubricated-for-life design means no oil degradation from shelf storage, so a low-hours pull can still deliver the full 30,000-hour service life.
