Overview

The Vimar ARKÉ Series is a 2P+E USA outlet rated 15 A at 127 V for flush-mounted installations that use the American and Saudi Arabian socket pattern. It uses screw terminals, takes one module in the ARKÉ system, and carries an IP20 rating for protected interior locations.

On board, this outlet suits boats with a 127 V AC circuit in dry interior spaces such as cabins, galleys, or enclosed helm areas. The body is halogen-free thermoplastic, it operates at 50 to 60 Hz, and the listed versions keep the same compact 22.3 x 49 x 37.1 mm device size.

Key features

Variants

This outlet is offered in three finish options within the same ARKÉ one-module format.

Across the listed variants, the electrical rating, screw-terminal connection, flush-mounted snap engagement, IP20 protection, and overall dimensions remain the same. The change is the visible finish and surface treatment.

• VM19245: Grey finish, similar to RAL 7015. This version has a matte untreated surface and a darker look for technical interiors or darker trim combinations.
• VM19245.B: White finish, similar to RAL 9016. This version has a matte untreated surface that blends into light cabin liners, white panels, and bright interior trim.
• VM19245.M: Metal finish, similar to RAL 9007 aluminium. This version has a matte lacquered surface and a more metallic appearance on visible interior panels.

Installation and fit

Use this outlet where the boat already has a 127 V AC branch circuit and a flush-mounted modular device layout. The one-module body matters when you are matching an existing ARKÉ installation or planning a compact switch and outlet panel.

The IP20 rating places it in dry, sheltered spaces rather than exposed cockpit faces, open deck locations, or any area that sees spray and washdowns. For marine refits, it is a better fit for enclosed accommodation and other protected interior zones.

Use on board

This range fits boats and yachts that use Vimar ARKÉ devices and need a USA-format receptacle in a coordinated finish. It also suits shore-power interiors and service spaces where 127 V distribution is already in place and the outlet needs to stay within a one-module layout.
