DOT Special Provisions for Air A54 & A55

• A54 Lithium batteries or lithium batteries contained or packed with equipment that exceed the maximum gross weight allowed by Column (9B) of the § 172.101 Table may only be transported on cargo aircraft if approved by the Associate Administrator.

• A55 Prototype lithium batteries and cells that are packed with not more than 24 cells or 12 batteries per packaging that have not completed the test requirements in Sub-section 38.3 of the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria (incorporated by reference; see § 171.7 of this subchapter) may be transported by cargo aircraft if approved by the Associate Administrator

Page 22: Shipping Lithium Batteries Course Outline  Application  Shippers Responsibilities  Consignment Procedures 1.

Other DOT Special Provisions for Air

A100 • Primary (non-rechargeable) lithium batteries and cells are forbidden for transport aboard passenger

carrying aircraft.• Secondary (rechargeable) lithium batteries and cells are authorized aboard passenger carrying aircraft

in packages that do not exceed a gross weight of 5 kg. A101 A primary lithium battery or cell packed with or contained in equipment is forbidden for transport aboard a passenger carrying aircraft unless the equipment and the battery conform to the following provisions and the package contains no more than the number of lithium batteries or cells necessary to power the intended piece of equipment:

(1) The lithium content of each cell, when fully charged, is not more than 5 grams. (2) The aggregate lithium content of the anode of each battery, when fully charged, is not more

than 25 grams. (3) The net weight of lithium batteries does not exceed 5 kg (11 pounds).

A103 Equipment is authorized aboard passenger carrying aircraft if the gross weight of the inner package of secondary lithium batteries or cells packed with the equipment does not exceed 5 kg (11 pounds). A104 The net weight of secondary lithium batteries or cells contained in equipment may not exceed 5 kg (11 pounds) in packages that are authorized aboard passenger carrying aircraft.

Page 23: Shipping Lithium Batteries Course Outline  Application  Shippers Responsibilities  Consignment Procedures 1.

Certification

Each person in the USA who offers a hazmat for transport by air must certify it is in full compliance with– CFR-49– ICAO– IATA

Packing Instructions 965 –General requirements

All Lithium-ion cells or batteries must;1. Be of the type proven to meet the requirements of each test

in the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, subsection 38.3.

2. If identified by the manufacturer as defective for safety reasons or that have been damaged, and that have the potential of producing a dangerous evolution of heat, fire or short-circuit, are forbidden from transport by air (e.g. those batteries being returned to the manufacturer for safety reasons).

3. Cells or batteries must be equipped with an effective means of preventing external short circuits. This includes protection from contacting conductive material in the same packaging

Page 79: Shipping Lithium Batteries Course Outline  Application  Shippers Responsibilities  Consignment Procedures 1.

Section IA Packaging Requirements

• The general packing requirements (5.0.2) must be met.– Packaging Quality– Packaging Test Requirements– Compatibility

• Material of construction

– Temperature & Vibration resistance– Cushioning Material– Friction – Venting– Minimum Size

Page 80: Shipping Lithium Batteries Course Outline  Application  Shippers Responsibilities  Consignment Procedures 1.

Section IA Packaging RequirementsDesign Requirements• Each cell or battery must meet the provisions of 3.9.2.6• Incorporate a safety venting device or be designed to preclude a violent rupture

under conditions normally incident to transport and be equipped with an effective means of preventing external short circuits.

• Each battery containing cells or series of cells connected in parallel must be equipped with an effective means, as necessary, to prevent dangerous reverse current flow (e.g. diodes, fuses).

Packaging Requirements:• cells and batteries must be placed in inner packagings that completely enclose the cell

or battery then placed in an outer packaging & meet the PG II performance standard• Lithium ion batteries with a mass of 12 kg or greater and having a strong, impact-

resistant outer casing, or assemblies of such batteries, may be transported when packed in strong outer packagings and protective enclosures not subject to the requirements of Chapter 6, if approved by the appropriate authority of the State of origin. A copy of the document of approval must accompany the consignment.

Packing Instructions 965- Section II

“Small” Lithium ion cells and batteries may be offered for transport and do not need to comply with other additional requirements of the air regulations if they meet the following

1. Lithium ion cells, Watt-hour rating not more than 20 Wh;

2. Lithium ion batteries, Watt-hour rating not more than 100 Wh;

3. The Watt-hour rating must be marked on the outside of the battery case.

4. Must be packed in strong outer packaging

Page 83: Shipping Lithium Batteries Course Outline  Application  Shippers Responsibilities  Consignment Procedures 1.

Section II - Packing Requirements• Cells and batteries must be packed

in inner packagings that completely enclose the cell or battery then placed in strong outer packaging

• Each packaging must be capable of passing the 1.2M Drop Test in any orientation without shifting, damage or release of contents

• Cells and batteries must be protected so as to prevent short circuits. This includes protection against contact with other batteries in the same package or conductive materials within the same packaging that could lead to a short circuit.
