Vimar IDEA White Prismatic Indicator Unit, For 14770/14771/14776/14777, 230V 3W Max, 3-Module

Overview

The Vimar VM16446 is a 3-module indicator unit with a white prismatic diffuser for Vimar IDEA flush-mounted installations on 230 V AC circuits, rated for lamps up to 3 W.

It is used as a small status light in switch panels and control stations, where you want a clear on indication that stays visible from an angle. With an IP40 rating, it belongs in protected interior locations such as a cabin panel, nav station, or inside a sheltered electrical cabinet rather than in exposed cockpits or washdown zones.

Key features

• 230 V AC indicator unit for a compatible lamp up to 3 W
• Fits a 3-module position in Vimar IDEA modular frames and plates
• White prismatic diffuser spreads the light for easier viewing across a panel
• Works with Vimar lamps 14770, 14771, 14776, and 14777
• Flush-mounted installation with snap-in (engage) fixing
• Halogen-free thermoplastic body with a matte, untreated finish in white (RAL 1013)
• IP40 protection for dry, sheltered areas
• Supplied without the lamp

Compatibility and fit

This module is part of the Vimar IDEA wiring device system and uses a 3-module format. Confirm your support frame and faceplate layout are for IDEA 3-module devices, and note that it is intended for 230 V AC applications, not 12 V or 24 V DC indicator panels.

Installation and setup

Install it like any panel indicator module: isolate the circuit, snap the unit into the flush-mounted support, fit one of the compatible lamps, then wire the lamp according to your panel schematic so it follows the circuit or signal you want to monitor. For onboard AC distribution work, use a qualified marine electrician.

Use on board

This style of indicator is a practical fit on vessels with 230 V shore power or inverter-fed AC circuits where you want quick visual confirmation at a control point, such as AC present or a specific AC load energized, in a location that stays dry and protected.

Maintenance and care

Wipe the diffuser and front surface with a soft cloth. Avoid strong solvents that can haze plastics, and keep the installation away from direct spray since the front is rated IP40.

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.
