Overview

The Vimar VM09951.A is a 1-module surface cover with 45 mm depth for installing one Vimar 8000 standard module on a wall or ceiling. The housing measures 78.5 x 32 mm and carries an IP40 rating for sheltered interior locations on board.

It includes a rear cable inlet so wiring can drop in behind the cover, which helps keep runs tidy when you are surface-routing cable in conduits or behind panels. The body is halogen-free plastic with an ivory RAL 9001 finish that blends into common cabin and wheelhouse interiors.

Compatibility and fit

This cover is sized for a single 8000 standard module, so it is a good fit when you are adding one switch, outlet, or control point without cutting a recessed box into the surface. Before ordering, match your device to the 8000 standard format and confirm it is not one of the excluded module codes listed above.

Installation and placement

Mount the cover to a flat surface and leave enough clearance for the 45 mm projection plus wiring bend radius at the rear inlet. With an IP40 rating, it belongs in dry, protected areas such as cabins, saloons, nav stations, or inside sheltered electrical spaces rather than exposed decks or wet heads.

On-board use notes

This part makes sense for refits and new installs where you want Vimar modular controls on a fiberglass liner or a thin bulkhead that does not have room for a flush box. It also works well when wiring is run in surface conduit and you want a clean termination point without opening up finished joinery.
