{"product_id":"qbp881269","title":"Vimar Plana 1P NO Push Button Mechanism, For 1-3 Module Buttons, 10A 250V, Lightable, Flush Mount, IP40, Halogen-Free","description":"\u003ch6\u003eOverview\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vimar VM14008.0 is a Plana series 1-pole normally open (1P NO) push-button mechanism rated 10 A at 250 V~. It is a momentary contact, so the circuit closes only while the button is pressed, which is useful when you want a clean trigger instead of a latching on-off switch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a lightable mechanism and completes with compatible Plana 1, 2, or 3-module buttons and the matching mounting hardware. The body is halogen-free thermoplastic with a glossy white finish (RAL 9003), and the front is rated IP40 for protected interior locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhysical size is 22.3 mm wide, 49.0 mm high, and 38.4 mm deep, which helps when you are checking clearance behind a helm panel, cabin switch bank, or bulkhead trim panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-pole, normally open push-button action (momentary make contact)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 10 A at 250 V~\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightable mechanism for use with compatible Plana lighting components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade to complete with Plana 1, 2, or 3-module buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-mounted installation with snap-in engage fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP40 rating for protected interior panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalogen-free thermoplastic body with glossy white finish (RAL 9003)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOverall size: 22.3 mm (W) x 49.0 mm (H) x 38.4 mm (D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eCompatibility and fit\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis mechanism is part of the Vimar Plana modular system, so fit depends on using the matching Plana supports, buttons, and cover plates. It occupies a 1-module space at the mechanism level, while the visible button can be a 1, 2, or 3-module style depending on the look and panel layout you are building.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBefore ordering, confirm you have enough depth behind the panel for the mechanism body and wiring bend radius, especially in tight helm consoles where harnesses and network cabling share the same cavity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eInstallation and setup\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe snap-fit fastening is helpful when you are building a clean switch bank and want consistent alignment across multiple modules. Because this is a normally open momentary contact, it is commonly wired to a control input, relay coil, contactor circuit, or logic module, rather than switching large DC loads directly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eElectrical work on board should follow local regulations and be carried out by a qualified installer, particularly when the circuit includes AC power or critical equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn boats, a momentary push button is often used for horn circuits, door and locker releases, triggering a lighting scene controller, or as the command input for a windlass, thruster, or pump control relay. In low light, pairing it with a compatible lighting accessory can make it easier to find at the helm without leaving bright cabin lights on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a good match for owners refitting a Plana switch panel or adding a consistent, modular control point in cabins, pilothouses, or other protected areas where spray and washdowns are not hitting the front of the device.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eMaintenance and care\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor routine cleaning, wipe the visible surfaces with a soft, lightly damp cloth and avoid aggressive solvents that can haze glossy plastics. If installed in a saltwater environment, keeping the area dry and reducing salt buildup around the panel helps maintain smooth button action over time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52269531136181,"sku":"QBP881269","price":7.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1300382_qbp881269.jpg?v=1771544458","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp881269","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
