The NEFAB transport packaging is standard packaging for lithium-ion batteries and is specially designed for the safe and efficient transportation of used batteries, urgent shipments, prototypes, batteries for recycling or batteries for second-life applications.

Size and capacity of the battery transport container

The plywood transport container has external dimensions of approx. 1215 x 815 x 487 mm (LxWxH). Inside the box, the dimensions are 1164 x 764 x 275 mm (LxWxH). The entire internal volume can be used, i.e. 1164 x 764 x 275 mm. The tare weight of the transport container is approx. 30 kg. The maximum permissible total weight is 430 kg. The base frame can be retracted on 4 sides for industrial trucks. The container can be stacked up to a maximum load of 2362 kg (static). The dynamic load is 1312 kg.

Difference between static and dynamic stacking

With static stacking, goods are stacked on top of each other permanently and unchanged. The arrangement remains constant and there is no movement or reorganization during storage.

With dynamic stacking, on the other hand, the stacked goods are regularly moved, rearranged or removed.

Durable, foldable box for up to 100 cycles

The box is a reusable plywood box. The lid and pallet are made of plastic. When the box is not in use, it is foldable and can be easily stored. Experience has shown that the packaging can be used for approx. 100 cycles, depending on the application.

Use of the NEFAB 1208RP transport container

The lid must be secured with 2+2 25 mm/800 daN tension belts with a clamp lock. The battery is secured to the pallet with the same straps. The straps are not included in the scope of delivery, but can be ordered from the accessories.

The integrity of the container and all components must be checked before each use. Only trained and instructed personnel may be entrusted with the installation, storage, relocation and transportation.

Certified for packaging group I

The 1208RP transport container meets the requirements of packaging group I, which means that substances with a high hazard potential may be transported in it. To achieve this classification, the packaging must be type-tested and have withstood a drop height of 1.8 m. All packaging with the code "X" may be used for packaging groups I (II and III). Please note: certification for dangerous goods of packaging group I is only given if the box is closed with 25 mm/800 daN tension belts! When closed with plastic straps, the box is only approved for packaging group II! Please contact us if you have any questions!

Suitable for lithium batteries in green and yellow condition --> Accessories are required for "yellow" condition

This transport container can be used for the ADR-compliant transportation of new (green) batteries in accordance with packaging instruction LP 903. An individual inner packaging set for yellow status is required for transporting defective, prototype or end-of-life batteries (yellow). Please contact us if you would like to use the packaging for this! info@lion-care.com , or +49 7151 256 4811 or +49 7151 256 4817.

Suitable for transportation in accordance with SV 376 of the ADR and packaging instruction LP 904

All lithium-ion cells or batteries and lithium-metal cells or batteries that have been damaged and no longer comply with the applicable regulations according to their manual must comply with the provisions of Special Provision 376 (SV 376). This applies, for example, to cells that have leaked or degassed, have suffered external or mechanical damage or have been identified as defective for safety reasons or could no longer be diagnosed prior to transportation. These cells must then be packed in accordance with packing instruction LP 904. According to this directive, for example, it must be ensured that any electrolytes released are absorbed and a non-electrically conductive thermal insulation material must ensure that the environment is protected from dangerous heat development.

Prototype transports according to SV 310 of the ADR and the packaging instruction LP 905

The special provision SV 310 regulates the transportation of prototypes of lithium-ion cells or batteries and lithium-metal cells or batteries. Packing instruction LP 905 then specifies, among other things, requirements for packaging and the mass of dangerous goods.

Transport instructions

All legal regulations as well as any markings and labels must be observed during transportation. All handling operations and transportation of the container must be carried out using suitable and safe means. Before transportation, make sure that the cover is firmly attached to the base frame.

Repair and disposal

Damaged transport containers must not be reused. Repairs may only be carried out by specialists authorized by the manufacturer or by the manufacturer himself. Contaminated components must be disposed of properly in accordance with their contamination.

Certification and guidelines

Lithium batteries fall into dangerous goods class 9. Numerous specifications and guidelines must therefore be observed when transporting lithium batteries.

Future-oriented

Lithium-ion batteries will be indispensable in all industrial applications in the coming years. However, if used improperly, batteries can pose a potential hazard during production, storage and transportation that should not be underestimated. By purchasing these boxes, you protect yourself against major financial losses right from the start.

FAQ
Fragen & Antworten zum Artikel ... mehr
How many batteries can be transported in one container?

That depends on various factors that need to be considered:

  • size of the battery(ies)
  • condition (e.g. non-critical, defective, critically defective or prototype)
  • power

Transport boxes are available in many different sizes and specifications. The packaging group for which the box is suitable is indicated for each product.

https://www.lion-care.com/aktuelles/blog/transportvorschriften-regeln-und-sicherheitsmassnahmen

Even if the batteries are not critical, remember to protect them from shocks and to order appropriate filling material if it is not already included in the box.

Do the individual batteries / rechargeable batteries have to be separated by a layer, e.g. PyroBubbles or vermiculite cushions?

Yes. Should a battery reach a critical state and cause a fire, separating the batteries will prevent the fire from spreading and multiplying.

Generally, the insulation and protection material should line all sides of the container. The batteries are stored between individual layers.

We also have containers in our program that already have the protective material integrated into the outer wall. No further protective layer is necessary here.

What is the difference between storage and transportation containers for lithium-ion batteries?

The technical principles for storage and transportation solutions are very similar. The transport boxes are also subjected to extensive tests in accordance with ADR (drop test, fire test, etc.) to confirm compliance with the ADR regulations. The packaging regulations are extensive and regulated by law.
There are currently no comparable regulations for storage. Nevertheless, manufacturers of storage boxes regularly carry out appropriate tests.
The right container depends on the type and size of the battery to be shipped or stored.

What do you need to bear in mind when transporting lithium-ion batteries?

The transportation of batteries is subject to ADR regulations.

The number, size and weight, energy density and condition of the batteries are crucial parameters for finding a suitable transport container for lithium-ion batteries. The selection process is complex and should be carried out by appropriately trained personnel. We have a trained hazardous materials officer on our team. Please feel free to contact us.

What is the difference between metal and plastic containers?

Plastic containers are cheaper but not as durable as metal containers. They are suitable, for example, for non-critical batteries, defective batteries, prototypes and end-of-life batteries. They can be used for both storage and transportation.

Metal containers are required, for example, when dealing with critically defective batteries.

The exact packaging instructions for these cases can be found in the ADR or by consulting a certified hazardous materials specialist.

What must be considered when storing lithium-ion batteries?

To date, there are no legal requirements for the storage of lithium-ion batteries, which does not mean that they should be stored without suitable protective measures.

It is best to check with your insurer to find out which measures they recognize as suitable in the event of a claim.

For example, a suitable box could already be recognized as spatial separation.
