Overview
The Vimar Eikon 20000.FX is a 1-way, 1-pole rocker switch module rated 10 AX at 250 V~ for switching AC circuits in an Eikon modular plate. It uses screwless terminals with a push-in clamp connection, and the insert is lighTable for optional LED illumination so you can find the switch in low light.
This style of switch is commonly fitted in protected interior panels on boats where an AC circuit needs a clean, replaceable rocker that matches other Eikon devices. With an IP40 protection level, it belongs in dry locations such as cabins, galleys, nav stations, or inside an enclosed console, not on exposed decks or anywhere it can take spray or washdowns.
The insert has a thermoplastic body that is halogen-free with a matt finish, and it sits shallow behind the panel with a built-in depth of 26.9 mm. The family is offered with different button widths and front finishes so the switch can match the rest of the faceplate layout without changing how it wires or operates.
Key features
- 1-pole, 1-way switching for AC loads, rated 10 AX at 250 V~
- Screwless terminals with push-in clamp connection for straightforward wiring in tight panels
- LighTable insert that supports optional, exchangeable LED lighting for control and orientation
- Replaceable rocker/button front, useful when updating a panel look without changing the wiring insert
- IP40 protection level suited to interior or otherwise protected mounting locations
- Thermoplastic, halogen-free construction with a matt surface finish
- Built-in depth of 26.9 mm to help when clearance behind the panel is limited
Variants
This switch range is available in different front finishes and in both 1-module and 2-module button widths. The module width affects how much space the rocker occupies in the faceplate, which matters when you are filling a multi-gang frame or matching existing cutouts on a refit.
Across the range, the function stays the same as a 1-way, 1-pole rocker switch rated 10 AX at 250 V~ with screwless terminals and support for optional LED illumination. The visible differences are the color finish on the front and whether the button is a 1-module or 2-module format.
Compatibility and fit
This is a modular Eikon insert intended for flush mounting in compatible Eikon frames and cover plates. Plan your layout around the module width you need, and leave room behind the mounting surface for the mechanism depth and cable bend radius, especially in helm and cabin panels where harnesses are often bundled tightly.
Because it is a 1-pole switch, it interrupts a single conductor. On shore power and inverter-fed AC systems, that typically means switching the live conductor, but the correct approach depends on your boat wiring scheme and local requirements.
Electrical and on-board use notes
Confirm the circuit type before ordering. This insert is for 250 V~ AC applications and is rated 10 AX, which is commonly used for lighting circuits and other switched loads that can have inrush. For self-ballasted lamps, the maximum load is 100 W.
The optional locator or orientation light can be helpful on a boat at night so the switch position is easy to find without turning on overhead lighting. If your panel is exposed to humidity swings, mount it in a covered area and keep the faceplate sealed and well-fitted, since IP40 is not a water barrier.
Installation and setup
Use the screwless push-in terminals as intended, with cleanly stripped conductors and a firm pull-check after termination. On boats, vibration can work loose anything that is not seated fully, so take time to route conductors with strain relief and avoid side-loading the terminals once the insert is snapped into the frame.
This is a good match for boats already using Vimar Eikon plates and inserts where you want consistent switch feel and a front finish that matches the rest of the cabin or console panel.
