The PHILIPS MASTER TL5 HE 28 W/830 is a T5 fluorescent tube, 1149 mm long (Ø 16 mm), with a G5 cap. It delivers 2,900 lumens of warm white light at 3,000 K, with Ra 85 colour rendering — the benchmark for commercial installations where colours must stay true.
Operation: Electronic HF ballast required — no starter. A rated life of about 24,000 hours and excellent lumen maintenance keep maintenance visits down — which matters when the fitting sits high up or in a technical ceiling.
Direct equivalents at the same wattage and colour code: OSRAM LUMILUX T5 HE FH 28W/830, SYLVANIA Luxline Plus FHE 28W/830. A tube is chosen on three inseparable criteria — length (1149 mm), cap (G5) and ballast type: a tube of the same wattage but a different diameter will not fit the luminaire.

Which ballast do I need?
Electronic HF ballast required — no starter Check the control gear in your fitting before ordering: it is the gear, not the tube, that dictates the type of operation.
Can I replace a T8 with a T5 (or the other way round)?
Not directly. T8 is Ø 26 mm with a G13 cap, T5 is Ø 16 mm with a G5 cap, and their lengths differ: they do not fit the same lampholders. T5 also requires an electronic ballast. Switching between them needs an adapter or a new luminaire.
What does the 830 code mean?
The first digit (8) indicates colour rendering of 80 to 89 — here Ra 85. The next two give the colour temperature: 830 = 3,000 K (warm white).
How is it recycled?
Like all fluorescent tubes it contains a small amount of mercury: take it to a WEEE collection point (recycling centre or store), never put it in household waste, and carry it without breaking it.
