Vimar IP55 4-Module Surface Enclosure, For Eikon/Arké/Plana

Overview

The Vimar VM14904 is an IP55 4-module surface mounting box used to install Vimar Eikon, Arké, or Plana devices on a bulkhead or panel when you do not have a recessed wall box. The grey plastic enclosure measures 13.6 x 8.3 x 6.6 cm, so it is straightforward to plan clearance for wiring and the finished footprint on board.

This format is commonly used for switch groups, small control stations, and protected outlets in areas that see occasional spray or washdowns. It is not meant for locations that can be submerged; keeping the seal depends on using the correct front components for the chosen series and keeping cable entries properly sealed.

Key features

• IP55 enclosure format for protected installations in damp and exposed areas on board when assembled and sealed correctly
• 4-module (4M) capacity for Vimar Eikon, Arké, and Plana series mechanisms and plates
• Surface-mount layout for refits and for panels where cutting a recessed box is not practical
• Plastic housing in grey, with full insulating materials for a properly isolated installation
• Overall dimensions: 13.6 x 8.3 x 6.6 cm
• Approximate unit weight: 150 g

Compatibility and fit

This enclosure is sized for 4-module layouts within the Vimar Eikon, Arké, and Plana ranges. Match it with the correct 4M mounting frames and cover plates from the same series to maintain proper alignment and a clean seal at the front.

Installation and sealing

Mount the box to a flat, solid surface where the front plate can sit flush without rocking. Route conductors with enough slack to avoid strain on terminals, and keep bends gentle so the device sits squarely in the opening. For wet-area use, take care with cable entry points and any penetrations through the mounting surface, since those details are what typically make or break the IP55 performance in real boat installs.

Use on board

This style of surface box is a good match for helm and cockpit switch panels under a hardtop, utility areas, and lockers that get damp air and occasional splashes. It also works well in refits where you want a protected mounting point without opening up the structure behind a liner or insulated panel.

Maintenance and care

Rinse salt residue off the outside during routine washdowns and check the front seal periodically, especially after heavy vibration or repeated access for wiring changes. If you ever remove the front plate, re-seat it carefully so the sealing surfaces stay clean and even.

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.
