Vimar 8000 1-Module Cover Plate, Anodized Aluminum, Bronze Finish

Overview

The Vimar VM08505.BR is a 1-module cover plate for a Vimar 8000 Series insert on a 60 mm round mounting box, secured with screw fixing.

It uses anodized aluminium with a matt bronze finish (similar to RAL 1036) and measures 79.5 mm by 79.5 mm with a 6 mm depth. With an IP00 rating, it is intended for dry, protected locations such as interior helm panels, cabin bulkheads, or enclosed consoles.

The plate can be mounted horizontally or vertically, and it includes a label area on the face for clear circuit identification.

Compatibility and fit

This plate is a 1-module format for the Vimar 8000 Series. It is specified for use with mounting frame 08501 and is intended to finish a single insert while keeping the front flush and square.

Before ordering, confirm you are matching the same Vimar series and that your mounting box is the 60 mm round style used with screw-fixed plates.

Installation and setup

Fit the mounting frame and device insert in the box first, then align the plate and secure it with the fixing screws. Tighten evenly so the plate sits flat without twisting.

Because the plate is IP00, avoid mounting where it can be hit by spray, washdowns, or condensation that collects on the surface. In exposed areas, use a protected enclosure or relocate the device to a drier panel position.

Materials and finish

The anodized aluminium surface holds up well in humid cabins and covered cockpits when it is kept clean. For routine care, wipe with a soft cloth and mild cleaner, and avoid abrasive pads that can mark the matt finish.

Use on board

This is a good match for refits where an existing Vimar 8000 Series plate needs a like-for-like replacement, or for new interior switch and outlet panels where a bronze-toned finish is part of the cabin look.

This part is marked as will be discontinued, so when you are matching an existing installation it can be worth adding a spare plate for future service work.
