Radium LED Tubes

Radium LED Tubes — Brand Promise & Market Position

Radium, Germany’s historic lamp manufacturer, has positioned its LED Tube range under the “LED Neo” and “Star/HO” series. These linear light sources are designed for high-volume industrial, commercial and retrofit use: standard T5/T8 dimensions, broad voltage compatibility, and long service life.
For B2B buyers (wholesalers, electrical distributors, machine-builders) the Radium LED Tube line offers a strong value-proposition: compatibility with existing luminaires, premium manufacturer brand, large SKU range and long-term availability.

Radium Tube Series & Technical Classes

Radium LED Neo Series

• The LED Neo tubes fit standard G5 (T5) or G13 (T8) holders and match classic tube dimensions.
• Performance highlights: up to ~192 lm/W, luminous flux up to ~6 200 lm per tube, rated service life up to 100 000 h (L70B10) in some versions.
• Versions: T5 (17 mm), T8 (27 mm or 28 mm), multiple lengths (549 mm, 849 mm, 1149 mm etc) supporting various fixture geometries. 

Radium LED Star / HO Series

• “Star” and “HO” (High Output) variants target replacement of older fluorescent tubes in high-ceiling or high-lux zones.
• Example: RL-T5 49 HO, 26 W, ~3 950 lm, base G5, lifetime ~60 000h
• These provide a progressive path for retrofit of large installations where performance and service intervals matter.

Specification & Procurement Considerations for B2B Buyers

When specifying Radium LED Tubes, procurement teams should evaluate:

• Socket/Base compatibility: T5 (G5) vs T8 (G13) mounting — confirm your fixtures’ lamp holders.
• Length & diameter: Ensure size matches existing luminaire housing (e.g., 600 mm, 1200 mm lengths, diameters 17 mm, 27 mm, 28 mm).
• Operating mode & driver compatibility: Some Radium tubes require replacement of the ballast/driver; for LED-Neo this is emphasised. 
• Luminous flux & efficacy: E.g., LED Neo achieves up to ~192 lm/W. This matters when calculating replacement pay-back and maintenance reduction.
• Service life: Rated up to ~100 000h in certain series — important for large area lighting where lamp replacement cost is high
• Pack size & SKU management: For distributors and OEMs, order in master packs (e.g., 10- or 25-packs) and standardise SKUs across projects.
• Spare-parts strategy: Choose a few core lengths/voltages and colour temperatures to reduce inventory complexity.
• Brand & support: Radium offers datasheets, compatibility lists, and German manufacturing heritage — reassuring for tenders and specification. 

Operational & Maintenance Advantages

• Retrofit possibility: Since LED Neo fits standard tube holders, the fixture shell can often be reused—reducing cost and waste.
• Reduced downtime: Longer service life means fewer lamp changes in high-access cost zones (industrial hall ceilings, plant corridors)
• Energy savings: High efficacy leads to lowered power consumptions and supports sustainability targets.
• Simplified spares: When one brand covers multiple sizes/voltages, stocking becomes easier and technician training simplifies.
• Improved documentation: Using Radium across builds improves repeatability, traceability and standardisation for multi-site projects.

Integration into Panel-Build and Industrial Projects

For machine builders, panel integrators and facility contractors:

• Use Radium LED Tubes for machine-room lighting, control-panel enclosure lighting or inspection benches.
• For OEM machine packs delivered to customers, specifying Radium LED tubes supports a premium component list and simplifies future service
• For retrofit or upgrade projects in factories, leveraging existing T5/T8 fixtures with Radium LED tubes minimises overhaul expense and extends system life.
