LITHIUM METAL CELLS (including lithium alloy cells) Small cells excepted UN 3090 Applies to: Lithium metal cells with a lithium metal content not exceeding 1 g/cell UN No., Proper Shipping Name UN 3090, LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES Class 9 IATA Only Packing Group Not assigned Hazard Label • Labels must be in the form of a square set at an angle of 45° (diamondshaped) with minimum dimensions of 100 mm by 100 mm; except for air transport mode, labels dimensions may be reduced in the case of packages of such dimensions that they can only bear smaller labels. • They must have a line 5 mm inside the edge and running parallel with it. Prerequisite • Cells must meet the General Requirements of § 1.3 in particular the test requirements Transport mode ADR IMDG IATA Passenger Aircraft Cargo Exemption conditions SP 188 SP 188 PI 968 section IB Cells must be protected so as to prevent short circuits, including protection against contact with conductive materials within the same packaging that could lead to a short circuit. Cells must be packed in inner packagings that completely enclose the cell. The inner packagings must be packed in strong outer packagings Packaging Drums, Jerricans, Boxes; not required approved packaging Use strong outer packaging, it must be capable of withstanding a 1.2 m drop test in any orientation without damage to cells contained therein, without shifting of the contents so as to allow cell to cell contact and without release of contents.
