Overview

This Vimar LED signalling unit is a 110-250V, 50/60 Hz, 0.3W insert for axial switches and switch or push-button applications. It adds a built-in LED light at the switch point, which helps the control stand out in low light on AC circuits that use this insert format.

On board, it makes the most sense in cabin, passageway, galley, or service-area switch positions that already use Vimar axial controls. The range comes in five LED colors, so panel indication can stay consistent across the boat without changing the electrical rating of the insert.

Key features

• 110-250V AC, 50/60 Hz operating range for mains-voltage switch circuits
• 0.3W LED insert with built-in light source
• Made for axial switches and used on switch or push-button control points
• Available in light blue, white, amber, green, and red
• Listed variants keep the same electrical rating and change only the LED color

Variants

This product is offered in multiple color configurations under the same LED signalling unit range.

Across the listed variants, the change is the LED color. The 110-250V, 50/60 Hz, 0.3W axial-switch format stays the same.

• VM00938.B: light blue LED. This version gives the switch a cooler-looking indicator that is easy to distinguish from warmer panel lights.
• VM00938.W: white LED. This keeps the indication neutral on panels that use a standard white locator light.
• VM00938.A: amber LED. This adds a warmer visual cue on panels where amber is part of the existing color coding.
• VM00938.G: green LED. This suits panels that already use green as the visual code for a given circuit or control point.
• VM00938.R: red LED. This gives a strong color contrast where red is used as a distinct panel marker.

Compatibility and fit

This is an insert for axial switchgear, not a standalone panel lamp and not a low-voltage indicator. Before ordering, match the insert format already in the switch and make sure the circuit is a 110-250V AC application rather than a 12V or 24V DC system.

It works well for refits, repairs, or color standardization on boats that already use Vimar axial switchgear in interior spaces. Where the installation mixes switch families or system voltages, checking the existing insert first helps avoid a mismatch.

Installation and setup

Wiring method matters with these signalling units. Series wiring is used with incandescent or halogen loads; when the controlled circuit uses other lamp types, the connection method should be checked against the circuit layout before installation.

The unit sits within the switch assembly, so protection comes from the surrounding switch location rather than from the insert itself. For boat installations, that usually points to interior panels and other sheltered positions instead of exposed spray areas.
