Planetary gearbox with 450 N.m continuous torque
The GBX1600051402F is a Schneider Electric planetary gearbox with straight teeth, 160 mm outer diameter, and a 5:1 reduction ratio. It delivers 450 N.m continuous output torque at 100 rpm and 30 °C, with a maximum of 720 N.m under the same conditions. Rated efficiency is 96 %, and torsional rigidity is 38 N.m/arcmin — the gearbox holds position well under load, with maximum backlash limited to 6 arcmin.
Sourcing reality — obsolete, quoted to order
Schneider Electric lists the GBX1600051402F as obsolete. No official successor is recorded. The part is available through independent surplus and broker channels; quantities and pricing are confirmed at RFQ against your BOM line. For a new-build or replacement, confirm the mounting interface and shaft dimensions match your existing installation — the gearbox accepts any mounting position and is lubricated for life, so no field maintenance is needed beyond verifying the input/output alignment.
Load capacity and service life
Service life is rated 30,000 hours at 100 rpm and 30 °C. Maximum axial force Fa is 6000 N (30,000 h) or 8000 N (10,000 h); maximum radial force Fr is 4200 N (30,000 h) or 6000 N (10,000 h), applied at mid-distance from the output shaft. Shaft output sealing is IP54, suitable for dry indoor environments with occasional dust or splash. Ambient operating range is -25 to 90 °C.
