Lithium batteries have been widely used around the world, so a large number of lithium batteries need to be transported accordingly. It is also a common way to transport lithium batteries by air, so what details should be paid attention to when lithium batteries are transported by air?
Detailed requirements for air transportation of lithium batteries:
(1) Lithium batteries must pass the UN 38.3 test and the 1.2-meter drop packaging test;
(2) The dangerous goods declaration document provided by the shipper, marked with the UN number;
(3) The outer packaging must be affixed with the operation label "Cargo aircraft only";
(4) The design of the lithium battery should ensure that it prevents bursting under normal transportation conditions, and is equipped with effective measures to prevent external short circuits;
(5) The outer packaging must be strong enough. In the same package, it is necessary to prevent contact with the lithium battery with conductive materials that can cause short circuits;
(6) Additional requirements for transportation of lithium batteries installed in equipment: equipment should be fixed to prevent the batteries from moving in the packaging;
(7) When the weight of a single package is less than 35 kg, lithium batteries should be loaded on pallets to avoid strong vibration during transportation.
At present, dozens of airlines, including Delta Air Lines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, and Singapore Airlines, have voluntarily banned civil airliners from consigning large amounts of lithium batteries.
Lithium-ion battery (LIB) has become the main energy storage solution in modern social life. Among them, lithium iron phosphate batteries are a perfect replacement for lead-acid batteries, and they are the first choice for grid-connected peak shaving, off-grid energy storage, photovoltaic energy storage, UPS, data center and other industries.
