Philips MasterColor CDM-Tm Elite Mini 35W/930

The Philips MasterColor CDM-Tm Elite Mini is a 35-watt ceramic metal halide discharge lamp with a GU6.5 base. It delivers 3900 lumens at a 3000K colour temperature and offers a rated life of 15000 hours. Designed for professional accent and display lighting, it provides high colour rendering with a CRI of 90.

Ideal for retail display and accent lighting

This lamp suits retailers, galleries and showrooms that need crisp white light with excellent colour fidelity for merchandise or artwork. The compact T4 form factor fits tight fixture designs where space is limited. It is not for buyers who need a screw-in base or standard mains-voltage LED replacement. Buyers requiring instant restrike or dimming capability should consider alternative technologies.

GU6.5 base with ANSI C130/E code

The single-ended GU6.5 bi-pin base and ANSI C130/E designation are the critical compatibility factors for this lamp. Verify that your fixture specifies this exact base type and ANSI code before purchase. The 35-watt power rating and 3900-lumen output must match the ballast specifications. Using an incorrect ballast or base will prevent operation and may damage the lamp or fixture.

Questions about this item

Do I need a GU6.5 socket and an electronic ballast rated for the C130/E ANSI code to run this 35 W CDM-Tm Elite lamp?

Yes, the lamp uses a GU6.5 base and requires an electronic ballast compatible with the C130/E ANSI code for proper ignition and stable operation.

Will this 3000 K, CRI 90 lamp match the colour appearance of my older 3000 K metal-halide bulbs?

The 3000 K colour temperature matches, and the CRI 90 rating typically exceeds older standard metal-halide lamps, so colours may appear more vivid while the white tone stays consistent.

How can I confirm the lamp is delivering its rated 3900 lm output after installation?

Verify the ballast is a C130/E electronic type, allow a few minutes for warm-up, then measure illuminance at a known distance; the reading should align with 3900 lm for a 35 W CDM-Tm Elite lamp.
