It is suited to interior lighting circuits on boats where a 230V AC system is already in place, such as a cabin, saloon, or other protected living area.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an IP40 device with a compact body measuring 22.3 x 49 x 62.2 mm, so it belongs in dry, protected locations rather than exposed deck or washdown areas. The control is easy to find in low light thanks to its built-in indicator, and the click-in mounting format keeps the installation neat in a flush electrical panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eKey features\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e230V, 50-60 Hz dimmer for incandescent lamp loads from 100W to 500W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePush-push 2-way switch with rotary potentiometer for on\/off control and light adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlush-mounted body with click-in fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIP40 protection for protected indoor spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisible in the dark thanks to the built-in light indicator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks with buttons, but not with movement sensors, presence indicators, timers, transmission buttons, or infrared buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThermoplastic body with glossy finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch6\u003eVariants\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis product is offered in two finish options.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat changes between the variants is the visible colour and surface treatment.

Before ordering, check that the boat uses a 230V AC lighting circuit and that the connected lamps are incandescent and fall within the 100W to 500W load range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor marine refit work, it makes the most sense in protected accommodation spaces where you want manual light control at the wall plate. It is not the right choice for exposed exterior positions or circuits that rely on sensors or timer-based switching.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch6\u003eUse on board\u003c\/h6\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis range is a good match for boats with residential-style interior switchgear and 230V cabin lighting. It suits owners and installers who want a dimmer that keeps the panel finish tidy and gives straightforward control without adding extra electronics or network integration.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vimar","offers":[{"title":"Silver","offer_id":52371115868341,"sku":"QBP911717-1","price":75.05,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White","offer_id":52371115901109,"sku":"QBP911717-0","price":74.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8171\/1029\/files\/1319972_qbp911717.jpg?v=1774060196","url":"https:\/\/www.qualityboatparts.com\/products\/qbp911717","provider":"Quality Boat Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
