Each damaged or defective cell or battery or equipment containing such cells or batteries shall be individually packed in inner packaging and placed inside an outer packaging. A cell or battery with a net mass of more than 30 kg shall be limited to one cell or battery per outer packaging. Each inner packaging shall be surrounded by sufficient non-combustible and electrically nonconductive thermal insulation material to protect against a dangerous evolution of heat. Non combustibility shall be assessed according to a standard recognized in the country where the packaging is designed or manufactured. Appropriate measures shall be taken to minimize the effects of vibrations and shocks, prevent movement of the cells or batteries within the package that may lead to further damage and a dangerous condition during carriage. Cushioning material that is non-combustible and electrically non-conductive may also be used to meet this requirement. The inner packaging or outer packaging shall be leak-proof to prevent the potential release of electrolyte. For leaking cells or batteries, sufficient inert absorbent material shall be added to the inner or outer packaging to absorb any release of electrolyte. Cells and batteries LIABLE TO DANGEROUSLY REACT during transport It is forbidden to transport lithium cells and batteries that are damaged or defective and that under normal conditions of transport, are liable to rapidly disassemble, dangerously react, produce a flame or a dangerous evolution of heat or a dangerous emission of toxic, corrosive or flammable gases or vapours 1.3.5 Packages containing a combination of lithium batteries "packed with" and "contained in" equipment IMDG SP390 - When a package contains a combination of lithium batteries contained in equipment and lithium batteries packed with equipment, the following requirements apply for the purposes of package marking and documentation: (a) the package shall be marked “UN 3091” or “UN 3481”, as appropriate. If a package contains both lithium ion batteries and lithium metal batteries packed with and contained in equipment, the package shall be marked as required for both battery types. However, button cell batteries installed in equipment (including circuit boards) need not be considered; (b) the transport document shall indicate “UN 3091 LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT” or “UN 3481 LITHIUM ION BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT”, as appropriate. If a package contains both lithium metal batteries and lithium ion batteries packed with and contained in equipment, then the transport document shall indicate both “UN 3091 LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT” and “UN 3481 LITHIUM ION BATTERIES PACKED WITH EQUIPMENT”. IATA A181 - Air transport regulation clarifies the requirements for this combination of lithium batteries packed with equipment and lithium batteries contained in equipment in the same package: - the package must be marked UN 3091 Lithium metal batteries packed with equipment, or UN 3481 Lithium ion batteries packed with equipment as appropriate. - all applicable parts of both packing instructions must be met. - button cell batteries installed in equipment (including circuit boards) need not be considered. 20 Copyright © www.batteriestransport.org
