Overview

The Vimar VM10280 is a 1-pole, 2-way push button rated 10 A at 250 V~ with directional arrows, a central OFF position, and a 22 x 36 x 43.5 mm body.

It is a built-in (flush) control meant for Linea Classica switch panels where you need a clear up and down command without adding separate labeled buttons. On a boat, it is commonly used in protected interior locations such as cabins, saloons, and helm consoles where the switchgear is part of a modular wall plate system.

Key features

• 2-way push button with directional arrows and a center OFF position for straightforward up and down control
• Electrical rating: 10 A at 250 V~
• 3-terminal connection layout to support changeover-style control circuits
• Built-in mounting with snap-in engage fastening for clean, flush installations
• Thermoplastic construction that is halogen-free
• White, matt finish (RAL 9001 similar) to match classic Linea Classica plates and trim
• Label space on the front for clear circuit identification

Compatibility and fit

This device is part of the LINEA Classica traditional wiring system and is intended to be installed with matching Linea Classica mounting frames and cover plates. Plan for the device depth in the cavity, and leave extra room for wiring bends behind the mechanism so the module can seat fully and the snap-in engagement can lock properly.

If the location is exposed to spray, washdowns, or constant sun, install it inside a protected panel or enclosure that keeps moisture and UV off the mechanism and trim.

Installation and wiring

Use the directional arrows as the functional reference for wiring so the up and down actions match what the crew expects at the panel. Isolate power before installation, and confirm the switching requirements of the circuit being controlled. The device is rated for 250 V~; if it is being used on a 12 V or 24 V DC circuit, verify the DC switching rating for the connected load and control method.

Use on board

This push button is a good match for refits and new builds that are already standardized on Linea Classica plates and want consistent controls throughout the interior. The center OFF position helps when controlling equipment that should not be left running between directions, such as lift or shade controls that work through an appropriate controller or relay.

Maintenance and care

Wipe the front with a lightly damp cloth and avoid strong solvents that can haze the matt finish. During periodic electrical checks, confirm the module remains firmly seated in its support and that the terminals are tight, especially in areas with vibration.
