It suits boats and yachts that distribute 120 V power on board and need straightforward light control in interior spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rotary potentiometer gives manual dimming with a locator that stays visible in darkness, which is useful at night in cabins, passageways, and enclosed helm areas. This is a practical replacement or refit choice when the existing circuit uses incandescent loads or magnetic transformers and you want a control that matches the Plana device format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe body is compact at 22.3 mm wide, 49 mm high, and 58.5 mm deep, with flush mounting and IP40 protection. That makes it better suited to protected interior locations than to exposed deck areas or washdown zones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e120 V~ 50 to 60 Hz dimmer for 30 to 500 W incandescent lamps and 30 to 300 VA ferromagnetic transformers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotary potentiometer control with a locator visible in darkness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-mounted format with click-in mounting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP40 protection for protected interior installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact housing size of 22.3 x 49 x 58.5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAvailable in white or silver finish within the Plana range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in two finish options for the same Plana dimmer format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcross both variants, the electrical rating, mounting method, dimensions, and rotary control layout stay the same.

This dimmer is intended for incandescent lamps and ferromagnetic transformers, so it is important to confirm the connected load type before replacing an existing control.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn board, it makes the most sense in protected interior spaces where a flush-mounted wall or panel device is appropriate. It is a sensible fit for cabins, saloons, companionways, and enclosed control areas where light levels need to be adjusted without adding a more complex control system.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"White","offer_id":52370965725365,"sku":"QBP911353-9","price":67.87,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Silver","offer_id":52370965758133,"sku":"QBP911353-7","price":67.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1319967_qbp911353.jpg?v=1774056904","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp911353","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
