Overview

The Vimar 8000 Series 4-module snap-fixing cover plate is a finishing plate for 4-module flush mounting boxes, built to work with mounting frame 08532. It can be installed horizontally or vertically, and its front size is 145 x 75.5 mm with a depth of 6 mm.

This range is the visible outer plate that finishes a modular switch or outlet installation once the frame and mechanisms are in place. Across the range, the plate is halogen-free and uses the same 4-module format, while the finish changes by variant through anodized aluminium in bronze or gold, or resin in ivory.

Because this is a cover plate with IP00 protection, it belongs in protected interior locations rather than open deck or washdown areas. On board, that makes it a sensible fit for cabin switch panels, interior bulkheads, galley controls, and other flush-mounted points where a clean finished face matters as much as the electrical layout behind it.

Key features

• Fits 4-module flush mounting boxes and mounting frame 08532.
• Snap-fixing front plate for quick finishing once the frame and devices are installed.
• Can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
• Front dimensions are 145 x 75.5 mm with 6 mm depth.
• Halogen-free construction.
• Available in anodized aluminium or resin, depending on the selected finish.

Variants

This product is offered in multiple configurations that keep the same 4-module layout and mounting format while changing the visible finish and plate material.

Across these listed variants, the front size, snap-fixing design, compatibility with frame 08532, and horizontal or vertical mounting remain the same. The differences are the color and the face material.

• VM08638.BR: Bronze, anodized aluminium. This version has a darker metallic finish that works well where the switch plate needs to sit quietly against warm interior joinery or darker panel trims.
• VM08638: Gold, anodized aluminium. This version keeps the metallic face and gives the panel a lighter, brighter appearance.
• VM08638.A: Ivory, resin. This version changes to a non-metallic face with a softer ivory look that suits lighter interiors and traditional electrical layouts.

Compatibility and fit

This plate is made for Vimar 4-module flush mounting boxes and mounting frame 08532, so fit depends on that underlying hardware being part of the installation. It is also suitable for built-in installations, wall ducts, and subfloor installation duct boxes where the same 4-module geometry is used.

For refit work, the important check is not just the outside size of the cover plate but the frame behind it. If the boat already uses the Vimar 8000 modular layout with frame 08532, this plate finishes the opening cleanly without changing the device count or mounting direction.

Use on board

This range makes sense for boats that use modular interior switchgear and want a clean, finished plate over a 4-module electrical point. It suits owners, yards, and refit teams matching cabin and saloon switch plates to the surrounding interior while keeping the same underlying Vimar layout.
