Vimar Plana Pull-Cord Push Button, 1P NO, 10A, 250V, 1.5 m Cord

Overview

The Vimar Plana pull-cord push button is a 1-pole, normally-open (NO) momentary switch rated 10 A at 250 V~ with a 1.5 m pull cord for quick activation from a berth, head, or utility space.

It is a flush-mounted modular device that snaps into a Plana mounting frame and sits behind a matching cover plate. The unit is rated IP40 and measures 44.8 mm wide x 49 mm high x 35.2 mm deep, which keeps it practical for protected interior panels rather than spray-exposed locations.

On board, this style of switch is commonly used as a pull-cord call button, a momentary input to a relay, or a trigger point for lights and fans where you want a simple pull action. It is a good match when your boat already uses the Vimar Plana system and you want the pull-cord device to stay consistent with the rest of the switching.

• 1.5 m pull cord for easy reach in cabins, heads, and crew spaces

Variants

This pull-cord push button is offered in multiple finishes to match the rest of a Vimar Plana installation.

The electrical function stays the same across the range: 1P NO momentary contact rated 10 A at 250 V~ with a 1.5 m cord and an IP40-rated device body. The visible difference is the color and surface treatment.

• VM14052: Color White. A straightforward match for white Plana plates and trim in cabins and interior passageways.

• VM14052.SL: Color Silver. A clean fit when your Plana installation uses silver-toned controls and finishes.

• VM14052.AB: Color Antibacterial White. Uses a white finish with antibacterial surface treatment for high-touch areas such as heads and crew cabins.

Compatibility and fit

This device is part of the Vimar Plana modular family and installs behind a compatible Plana cover plate using the proper mounting frame and back box for your installation style. Allow space for the 35.2 mm device depth plus wiring bend radius behind the panel or bulkhead.

IP40 protection points to use in interior areas that stay protected from washdown and direct spray. For damp locations, plan the mounting so the device remains inside a protected panel or enclosure.

Installation and wiring

The contact is normally open and closes only while the cord is pulled, then returns to open when released. This makes it a natural choice for bells, call circuits, and control inputs where you want a brief signal rather than a maintained on/off state.

For loads with high inrush or motor starting current, route the switch to a relay or control circuit rather than switching the load directly. Secure the pull cord so it hangs freely without chafe, and keep it away from doors, locker edges, and moving joinery.

Use on board

This is a practical option for boats that already use Vimar Plana switching and need a pull-cord style control in a head, berth, or utility area where reaching a wall rocker is inconvenient. It also fits installations where a momentary control input is needed for a relay, automation module, or alarm call circuit.

Maintenance and care

Wipe the front surface with a soft cloth and mild cleaner, and avoid solvents that can haze plastic finishes. In high-touch areas, check the pull cord for wear and replace the device if the cord becomes frayed or stiff.

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.
