It is made from plastic, uses full insulating materials, and includes 2 adaptors 08491 for 8000 standard modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a boat, this type of enclosure works well where you need a clean surface-mounted switch point instead of cutting a recess into a bulkhead or panel. IP40 makes it a better fit for interior areas that stay protected, such as cabins, nav stations, console interiors, and service spaces behind doors or panels, rather than exposed deck locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-module surface enclosure for Vimar Idea modules or 2 Vimar 8000 special modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied with 2 adaptors 08491 for installations using 8000 standard modules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP40 enclosure rating for interior installations where direct spray and washdown are not expected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic housing with full insulating materials\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact enclosure format, approximately 68 x 93 x 56 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in more than one colour configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe listed versions differ by colour.

This box accepts 2 Idea modules directly, or 2 8000 special modules. Where the installation uses 8000 standard modules, the supplied 08491 adaptors are part of the fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat makes it useful for refit work as well as small repairs, especially on boats where older switch locations may already use Vimar components from the Idea or 8000 range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and onboard use\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a surface enclosure, it is useful where there is not enough depth for a flush box behind the panel. That can simplify work on finished joinery, fiberglass liners, and retrofit panels where access behind the mounting surface is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a sensible choice for owners, electricians, and yards who need a tidy 2-module box in a protected onboard location and want to stay within the Vimar Idea or 8000 ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Ivory","offer_id":52370955174069,"sku":"QBP170462-V5","price":4.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Grey","offer_id":52370955206837,"sku":"QBP170462-V6","price":5.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1314931_qbp170462.jpg?v=1774056548","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp170462","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
