Published device depth is 32.5 mm, so it takes a little less room behind the panel while keeping the same switching layout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis insert is for protected interior positions rather than exposed exterior panels. IP40 suits locations behind a cover plate in a dry cabin or similar sheltered area, not places that see spray, washdowns, or open-weather exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, check that your boat uses the Vimar IDEA modular system and that the circuit matches the published 250 V, 16 AX rating. This is a good match for refits or new interior panels that need an IDEA reduced-module switch for cabin lighting or other onboard AC loads in a clean, built-in installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt mounts flush and clips into place, with screw terminals at the rear. The built-in depth is 23.3 mm, so it can work in tighter panel cavities, but the full device depth still needs to be checked against the chosen color variant.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Gray","offer_id":52370949603509,"sku":"QBP146671-V6","price":30.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Ivory","offer_id":52370949636277,"sku":"QBP146671-V8","price":30.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1314826_qbp146671.jpg?v=1774056414","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp146671","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
