Overview

The Vimar Idea 17098 Rondò cover plate is a 1-module or 2-reduced-module trim plate for the Vimar Idea wiring range. It can be mounted horizontally or vertically, uses clamp mounting, and measures 91 x 80 x 9 mm.

It gives a compact switch or control point a finished front face without adding bulk. The plate is suitable for built-in installation, wall ducts, and subfloor duct boxes, and it includes a label space that helps identify circuits or functions on small panels.

The body is halogen-free thermoplastic. With an IP00 rating, it belongs in protected interior locations rather than exposed wet areas, so it makes more sense for cabins, corridors, and enclosed service panels than for open deck positions.

Key features

• Fits 1 module or 2 reduced modules in the Vimar Idea range
• Can be mounted horizontally or vertically
• Clamp mounting for a straightforward fit
• 91 x 80 x 9 mm overall size
• Halogen-free thermoplastic construction
• Suitable for built-in installation, wall ducts, and subfloor duct boxes
• Integrated label space for circuit or function identification
• IP00 rating for protected interior use

Variants

This range is offered in several color and finish combinations, with black, bright white, graphite gray, and Idea white across the listed options. The visual difference comes from both color and surface finish rather than from a change in plate size or mounting format.

The technopolymer versions have an untreated glossy surface, while the Silk versions have a lacquered matt surface. Across the listed variants, the layout stays the same at 1 module or 2 reduced modules with horizontal or vertical mounting, clamp mounting, and the same 91 x 80 x 9 mm dimensions.

Compatibility and fit

This plate is meant for installations built around the Vimar Idea system. It suits layouts that need either one full module or two reduced modules, making it a practical match for compact switch and control points where the front finish needs to stay consistent across a panel or room.

It also works well in refits where the existing support and device arrangement are already based on the Idea format. The rounded Rondò shape keeps the look softer than a square-edged plate, which can help when matching existing interior trim.

Installation and location

Clamp mounting keeps installation simple when replacing an existing plate or finishing a new assembly. Because it is suitable for built-in boxes, wall ducts, and subfloor duct systems, it can be used in a range of interior electrical layouts without changing the basic module arrangement.

This is a sensible choice for interior switch panels and enclosed control areas where the surface stays dry and protected. It is less appropriate for washdown zones or any location that is directly exposed to spray or weather.
