Overview

The Vimar VM30008 is a Linea series 1-pole, normally-open push button mechanism rated 10 A at 250 V~ for flush-mounted switch panels.

Pressing the button closes the circuit only while held, which suits momentary functions on board such as relay triggers, door releases, and other press-and-hold controls. It fits a 1-module position and must be completed with a separate Linea 1-module button.

The body is halogen-free thermoplastic with a matt black finish (RAL similar 7024) and an IP40 rating for protected locations. Overall size is 22.30 mm wide, 52.80 mm high, and 28.90 mm deep.

Key features

• 1-pole, normally-open push button contact for momentary control
• 10 A, 250 V~ rating for switching or control circuits
• Flush-mounted modular device for Vimar Linea systems, to be completed with a 1-module button
• Screw terminals for straightforward wiring inside a panel or wall box
• Engage (snap) fastening for quick fit into the compatible support frame
• IP40 rating for protected installations; not a sealed device for spray or washdowns
• Halogen-free thermoplastic body with a matt black finish (RAL similar 7024)
• Lightable with a compatible Linea LED unit when night visibility is needed

Compatibility and fit

This mechanism is sized for a 1-module position in the Linea series, so it is intended to be installed with the matching Linea mounting frame and cover plate for your layout. The visible button is a separate part, so match the button style and color to the rest of your Linea modules.

With IP40 protection, mount it in dry interior areas or behind a protected helm or cabin panel. For exposed cockpit mounting, use an enclosure or a switch with a higher ingress rating.

Installation and wiring

The unit fastens into the support frame with a snap-in engage system and wires via screw terminals. Keep conductors properly strain-relieved, and use ferrules on fine-strand marine cable so the terminal clamps evenly.

Because the contact is normally open and momentary, it is often used to control a relay, contactor coil, or a low-current control input rather than feeding a heavy load directly. Confirm load type, inrush, and circuit protection before commissioning.

Use on board

This push button is a good match for refits that want a consistent Linea look while adding momentary controls at the nav station, in the cabin, or on an interior switch panel. It also works well for inputs that need a brief trigger rather than an on-off latch.

If you add the illumination accessory, it can make the control easier to find at night without leaving other lights on.
