1. Amended clause 2.9.4 of lithium battery

For battery cells or battery packs produced after June 30, 2003, the manufacturer and subsequent distributors shall provide the test summary specified in Section 38.3.5 of Section 38.3 of Part III of the Manual of Tests and Standards.

2. Add special clauses 390

If the package contains both a lithium battery pack with a built-in device and a lithium battery pack packaged with the device, the outer box markings and documents need to meet the following requirements:

1. The package should be marked with UN3091 lithium metal battery pack packed with equipment or UN3481 lithium ion battery pack packed with equipment as appropriate. If there are both lithium-ion battery packs and lithium metal battery packs with built-in equipment in the package, the package should mark both types of battery packs as required. But the button battery installed in the device (including the circuit board) does not need to be considered.

2. The transport document should indicate "UN3091 lithium metal battery pack packed with equipment" or "UN3481 lithium ion battery pack packed with equipment" as appropriate. If the package contains both lithium-ion battery packs and lithium metal battery packs with built-in equipment, the transport document should indicate both "UN3091 Lithium metal battery packs packed with equipment" and "UN3481" Lithium-ion battery pack packaged with equipment".

3. Revised special terms 360

Vehicles powered only by lithium metal battery packs or lithium ion battery packs should be classified as UN3171, battery-powered vehicles. The lithium battery pack installed on the cargo transport unit that is designed to be used only as an external power source for the cargo transport unit should be classified as UN3536 lithium battery pack installed on the cargo transport unit.

4. Special provisions were revised 376

Note: When evaluating whether a battery or battery pack is damaged or defective, it should be evaluated or evaluated in accordance with the safety standards provided by the battery, battery pack or product manufacturer, or by a technical expert who knows the safety features of the battery or battery pack .

Evaluation or evaluation may include, but is not limited to, the following criteria:

1. Acute hazards, such as gas, fire or electrolyte leakage;

2. Use or improper use of batteries or battery packs;

3. Signs of appearance damage, such as deformation of the battery or battery pack casing, or discoloration of the casing;

4. Prevent external and internal short circuits, such as voltage or insulation measures;

5. Conditions for the safety features of the battery or battery pack;

6. Damage to any built-in safety components, such as battery management system.

5. Special provisions were revised 388

Examples of this type of equipment are lawnmowers, cleaning machines or model boats or model airplanes. Equipment powered by lithium metal battery packs or lithium ion battery packs should be installed in accordance with UN3091, lithium metal battery packs installed in the equipment, or UN3091, lithium metal battery packs packaged with the equipment, or UN3481, according to the situation. The lithium ion battery pack in the device, or UN3481, the lithium ion battery pack packaged with the device. Lithium ion battery packs or lithium metal battery packs installed in cargo transport units that are designed to be used only for this or as an external power source for the device shall be classified under entry UN3536 Lithium ion battery packs or lithium ion battery packs or lithium battery packs installed on freight devices Metal battery pack.

6. Revised PI903

For packages that have both batteries or battery packs packaged with the equipment and built into the equipment:

a. For batteries and battery packs, the packaging completely encapsulates the batteries or battery packs, and then places them together with the equipment in a packaging that meets the requirements of paragraph (1) of this packaging guideline;

b. The packaging that meets the requirements of paragraph (1) of this packaging guide is then placed together with the equipment in a strong outer packaging made of appropriate materials. The packaging must have sufficient strength and design for its capacity and intended use. The structure of the outer packaging should be able to prevent accidental startup during transportation, and does not need to meet the requirements of 4.1.1.3. The equipment should be fixed in the outer packaging to prevent movement.

7. Change of lithium battery logo

The mark must be within the outline of the rectangle or square shadow. The size must be at least 120mm (100mm) wide × 110mm (100mm) high. If the package size has special requirements, the size/line thickness can be reduced to no less than 105mm (100mm) wide × 74mm (70mm) high. When it is not the specified size, all elements must be displayed in approximate proportions.

8. Add clause 5.5.4

Dangerous goods in equipment used or intended to be used during transportation, dangerous goods contained in equipment (such as lithium batteries, fuel cell cartridges), such as data loggers and cargo tracking devices, attached or placed in packages, collective packaging , Containers or loading bins are not subject to any provisions of this regulation except 7.3.5 and the following provisions:

1. The equipment should be used or intended to be used during transportation;

2. The dangerous goods contained (such as lithium batteries, fuel cell cartridges) shall meet the construction and test requirements specified in the applicable requirements and this code; and

3. The equipment should be able to withstand the shocks and loads normally encountered during transportation, and should be used safely in potentially exposed dangerous environments. 5.5.4.2 When such equipment containing dangerous goods is transported as consignment goods, the relevant entries in the list of dangerous goods in Chapter 3.2 shall be used, and all applicable provisions of this code shall be applied.
