The box measures 79.5 mm long by 36.5 mm wide and is rated IP20 for protected interior locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse it when you need a clean surface mount on a bulkhead or headliner and there is no room or no desire to recess a box into the panel. The cover screws on, which helps it stay put on boats that see vibration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis enclosure is intended for dry, indoor-type areas on board. Keep it out of direct spray and washdowns, and plan a different enclosure where water protection is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAccepts one 8000 standard module (1M) when used with the appropriate mounting frame and cover plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40 mm depth for surface installs where wiring needs extra space behind the module.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall size: 79.5 x 36.5 x 40 mm (L x W x D).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall or ceiling mounting for flexible placement on bulkheads and headliners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP20 enclosure rating for interior spaces that stay dry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalogen-free plastic housing with an untreated surface finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIvory color matched to RAL 9001.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking temperature range: 0 to 60 C.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrew-fastened cover for a secure closure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eWhat’s included\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurface mounting box body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackplate (bottom)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis box is for 8000 standard 1-module devices. It is used with the matching mounting frame and cover plate chosen for the specific switch, socket, or accessory you are installing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDevices with codes starting 08064 or 08065 are not supported by this box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the enclosure only. Electrical ratings, circuit protection, and marine compliance depend on the installed module and the way the circuit is built on the boat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurface mounting keeps the panel intact, but plan wire routing first so you have enough slack for terminations once the module is seated in the mounting frame. Keep bends gentle and avoid pinching conductors at the box edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a boat, mount the box to a flat, solid surface so the finished plate sits square. If the mounting surface is thin, adding backing material behind the screws helps prevent looseness over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaterials and protection\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe plastic body is halogen-free and the enclosure is IP20, so it belongs in protected spaces. In salty environments, keeping the installation dry and easy to wipe down helps the connected device stay clean and trouble-free.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis type of box is a good match for refits where a single Vimar module is being added without cutting into a bulkhead, such as at a nav station, cabin entry, or inside a dry locker. It also works well when you want the module to sit proud of the surface for easier access to wiring behind the device.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269542637749,"sku":"QBP878550","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300351_qbp878550.jpg?v=1771544518","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp878550","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
