Lithium batteries with a mass of 12 kg or greater and having a strong, impact resistant outer casing, or assemblies of such batteries, may be packed in outer packagings or protective enclosures not subject to the requirements of Section 6 of the IATA DGR. U. Can I ship recalled, damaged or non-conforming cells or batteries?
Measures in case of accidental release of the battery content (spillage in absence of fire) The potential hazard offered by damaged lithium batteries in absence of fire is mainly the release of an electrolyte containing a corrosive salt. Measures should also be taken to protect operators from inhalation of volatile organic substances.
Inner packaging must be packed in strong, rigid outer packaging like wood, fiberboard, or metal boxes. This provides impact and crush protection. Lithium batteries require both inner and outer packaging, along with sufficient cushioning material. Packages must be sealed securely and be able to contain leaks in the event of electrolyte spills.
G. Section II in Packing Instructions 967 and 970 states that “the lithium battery mark is not required on consignments of two packages or less where each package contains no more than four cells, or two batteries installed in equipment.” What is the intent of this provision?
A guiding principle is that lithium ion batteries must be packaged to eliminate movement or contact with other materials, and each package must display a hazard communication label. Battery Type
