Vimar Line-End Pushbutton, For Flat Cable, 1P NO, 2[16]A, 250V, White

Overview

The Vimar VM00114.B is a line-end 1-pole, normally open (NO) rocker pushbutton for flat cable, meant to sit on a flexible cord so you can add a momentary control point without a wall plate.

It is rated 250 V AC with a nominal current of 2 A (marked 2[16]A) and is listed for loads up to 500 W, which keeps it in the lane for small loads and control wiring on board. The matte white thermoplastic body is halogen-free and blends in well in cabins and nav stations.

Because this style of cord switch is not a sealed deck control, plan to place it where it stays dry and is not getting direct washdowns. It works best when the cord is supported so the switch is not carrying the weight of the cable run.

Key features

• Line-end flexible-cord pushbutton for flat cable runs
• 1-pole, normally open (NO) momentary contact with a rocker-style actuator
• Electrical rating: 250 V AC, 2 A nominal; marked 2[16]A
• Load range listed up to 500 W
• Thermoplastic housing with a matte white finish; halogen-free material
• White color matched to RAL 9003 (similar)

Compatibility and fit

This pushbutton is made for flat cable terminations on portable cords. Check that your cable profile and thickness match the internal channel and that you have enough slack to route the cable into the housing without sharp bends.

The contact is normally open and momentary. It closes only while you are pressing the rocker, so it fits horn or bell triggers, relay coils, and control inputs rather than on-off switching.

Installation and setup

Disconnect power at the source, then fit the flat cable into the cord channel and clamp it so the conductors cannot pull out under vibration. Leave a small service loop so the cable is not under tension when the button is pressed.

After wiring, confirm that the rocker returns freely and that the cable jacket is doing the strain relief work, not the copper conductors. Mount it inboard or under a coaming where it is protected from spray and UV.

Electrical and system notes

Use the pushbutton within its 250 V AC, 2 A rating and protect the circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection. For higher-current loads, use the button as a control signal and let a relay or contactor carry the load.

Use on board

On boats it is commonly fitted on portable or semi-portable cabin lighting cords, chart table task lights, or other small accessories where you want a quick momentary control at hand level.

This is a good match for refits that need a compact cord-end pushbutton on a flat cable run, especially in interior spaces where you want a clean look without cutting in a bulkhead switch.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
