It is built for compact switch banks where you want clean, consistent control of a single circuit from one location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt fits a 1-module opening (22.0 mm wide) and keeps depth requirements reasonable for bulkheads and furniture panels, with a 35.5 mm overall device depth and a 24.0 mm built-in depth. With an IP40 rating, it belongs in protected interior locations such as cabins, saloon panels, or sheltered helm consoles rather than areas exposed to spray or washdowns.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1P, 1-way switching for controlling one circuit from a single location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10AX, 250 V AC rating, including self-ballasted lamp loads up to 100 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-module format (22.0 mm device width) for tight multi-switch layouts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact body: 50.1 mm height, 35.5 mm depth, 24.0 mm built-in depth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrewed terminal connections for secure wiring in installations that see vibration\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalogen-free thermoplastic construction with untreated matte finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeige color (similar to RAL 9001) with a label area for clear circuit identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a modular insert intended for the Vimar 8000 system, snapping into a compatible 1-module support and finishing with the matching cover plate and frame. If you are matching an existing panel, confirm the series and module system before ordering so the device geometry and color line up with what is already installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and wiring\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe switch uses screw terminals, which makes it straightforward to terminate solid or stranded conductors when the correct ferrules and strip lengths are used. As with any onboard AC switching, isolate the circuit, verify zero voltage, and follow marine electrical best practices for conductor sizing, protection, and routing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis device is rated for 250 V AC and 10AX loads, so it should be matched to the circuit voltage and the connected load type. After commissioning, it is worth re-checking terminal tightness during routine panel inspections, especially on boats that see frequent pounding.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eVM08000 suits dry interior switching points such as cabin lighting zones, head or utility area lights, and equipment enable circuits located inside a protected panel. It is also a good match for refits where you are standardizing multiple control points around the boat on a consistent 1-module switch format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eClean the face with a soft cloth and mild cleaner, and avoid solvents that can haze or soften thermoplastic surfaces. If a switch starts to feel loose in the panel, remove power and check the snap-in seating and the condition of the surrounding support and cover plate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269552959669,"sku":"QBP871640","price":7.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300306_qbp871640.jpg?v=1771544564","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp871640","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
