54 2.1.2_II LITHIUM METAL CELLS CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT (including lithium alloy cells) Small cells excepted UN 3091 Applies to: Lithium metal cells contained in equipment with a lithium metal content not exceeding of 1 g/cell UN No., Proper Shipping Name UN 3091, LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT Class 9 Small excepted Packing Group Not assigned Hazard Label Not required 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 970 section II • Cells when installed in equipment shall be protected from damage and short circuit, must be secured against movement within the outer packaging. • The equipment must be equipped with an effective means of preventing accidental activation. • Devices such as radio frequency identification (RFID) tags, watches and temperature loggers, which are not capable of generating a dangerous evolution of heat, may be transported when intentionally active. When active, these devices must meet defined standards for electromagnetic radiation to ensure that the operation of the device does not interfere with aircraft systems. The devices must not be capable of emitting disturbing signals (such as buzzing alarms, strobe lights, etc.) during transport. Packaging The equipment must be packed in strong outer packagings constructed of suitable material of adequate strength and design in relation to the packaging's capacity and its intended use unless the cell is afforded equivalent protection by the equipment in which it is contained. Where multiple pieces of equipment are packed in the same outer packaging, the equipment must be packed and protected against contact with other equipment so as to prevent damage; For lithium metal cells co tained in equipment, a stacking test (3m height for 24 hours) of completed package is required. Weight limit cells/package No limit No limit 5 kg Net 5 kg Net Marking and Labelling of Packages Minimum dimensions: 100 × 100 mm Where the packages are of dimensions such that they can only bear smaller labels the label dimensions may be reduced to 100 mm × 70 mm Marking is not required for packages containing: • button cell installed in equipment (including circuit boards), • ≤ 4 cells installed in equipment , where there are not more than two packages in the consignment. Overpack OVERPACK + same labels as above OVERPACK + same labels as above OVERPACK + same labels as above OVERPACK + same labels as above Provision: see § 1.9.4 Documents Transport document is not required MDGF is not required Shipper’s declaration is not required; The words “Lithium metal batteries in compliance with Section II of PI 970” must be included in “Nature and Quantity of Goods” box of the air waybill. Instructions to personnel Any person preparing or offering cells for transport must receive adequate instruction on these requirements commensurate with their responsibilities. Figure 5.2.1.8.3 Environmentally hazardous substance mark The mark shall be in the form of a square set at an angle of 45° (diamond-shaped). The symbol (fish and tree) shall be black on white or suitable contrasting background. The minimum dimensions shall be 100 mm × 100 mm and the minimum width of the line forming the diamond shall be 2 mm. If the size of the package so requires, the dimensions/line thickness may be reduced, provided the mark remains clearly visible. Where dimensions are not specified, all features shall be in approximate proportion to those shown. NOTE: The labelling provisions of 5.2.2 apply in addition to any requirement for packages to bear the environmentally hazardous substance mark. 5.2.1.9 Lithium battery mark 5.2.1.9.1 Packages containing lithium cells or batteries prepared in accordance with special provision 188 of Chapter 3.3 shall be marked as shown in Figure 5.2.1.9.2. 5.2.1.9.2 The mark shall indicate the UN number preceded by th letter "UN", i.e. ‘UN 3090’ for lithium et l cells or batteries or ‘UN 3480’ for lithium ion cells or batteries. Where the lithium cells or batteries are contained in, or packed with, equipment, the UN number preceded by the letters "UN", i.e. ‘UN 3091’ or ‘UN 3481’ as appropriate shall be indicated. Where a package contains lithium cells or batteries assigned to different UN numbers, all applicable UN numbers shall be indicated on one or more marks.
