Overview
The Vimar VM14814 is an IP40 surface mounting box that supports an 8-module (2+2+2+2) layout for Vimar Eikon and Plana devices.
It is a grey plastic enclosure meant for protected, dry locations on board where surface mounting makes more sense than cutting into a bulkhead or console. IP40 suits interior areas that stay out of spray and washdowns.
The box can be installed horizontally or vertically, then finished with the appropriate Eikon or Plana mechanisms and cover plate to match the 8-module format.
Key features
- 8-module surface enclosure (2+2+2+2) for Vimar Eikon and Plana series devices
- IP40 protection level for sheltered interior mounting
- Horizontal or vertical installation to match your panel layout
- Plastic body with insulating construction for surface-mount switchgear and controls
Compatibility and fit
This mounting box is for installations built around the Vimar Eikon and Plana modular system, sized specifically for an 8-module arrangement. Confirm the total module count of your planned device combination so it fills the enclosure correctly.
If your existing hardware is from a different Vimar family, verify series compatibility before ordering, since cover plates and mechanisms are series-specific.
Installation and setup
Dry-fit the enclosure on the bulkhead or console first so cable routing and device placement are clear. After the box is secured, install the mechanisms, complete wiring terminations, and finish with the matching 8-module cover plate.
For marine use, keep the mounting position away from direct weather, deck wash, and any area that routinely sees dripping gear or hose-downs.
Where it works well on board
This style of surface enclosure is a solid match for refits and tight-access panels where there is limited clearance behind the mounting surface. It suits cabins, nav stations, internal consoles, and other sheltered spaces where you still want a clean, serviceable control point.
Maintenance and care
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild cleaner. Avoid harsh solvents that can haze plastic, and recheck mounting screws after the first few trips if the box is installed in a spot that sees vibration.
