Product information „BAUER TYPE LIP-F 2800 Transport and storage container“
Brief overview
The BAUER TYPE LIP-F 2800 is a transport and storage container for critically defective lithium-ion batteries. The packaging complies with the requirements of ADR Packaging Instruction LP906 for BEV batteries with a maximum battery capacity of 144 kWh. This makes the container particularly suitable for large-format traction batteries from electric vehicles, as well as for applications in the automotive industry, battery servicing and dangerous goods logistics.
The protection concept combines a sturdy, hot-dip galvanised base frame with a sheet steel cover and integrated fire protection panels. A spill tray with a fire protection plate is provided to contain any leaking electrolyte. 18 lashing points and four straps supplied with the unit enable the battery to be secured within the container. Thanks to the base frame, which is accessible from all four sides, as well as two drive-in pockets and four crane eyes on the hood, the LIP-F 2800 is designed for the mechanical handling of large-format batteries. Two adjustable pressure relief valves complete the design features.

Safety and protection features
The BAUER TYPE LIP-F 2800 transport and storage container features a structurally integrated protection system for the transport of critically defective lithium-ion batteries. The sheet steel cover is fitted with fire protection panels. The base frame contains a drip tray with a fire protection plate capable of containing any leaking electrolyte.
There are 18 lashing points and four lashing straps available for securing the load. This allows the large-format battery to be secured within the container to prevent movement during handling and transport.
The cover is secured to the base frame using angle lever locks. A positioning aid assists in correctly fitting the cover. Two slotting pockets and four crane eyes are provided for its mechanical handling. Additionally, there are drill holes for attaching shackles and a collision protection device.
A distinctive feature of the LIP-F 2800 is its two adjustable pressure relief valves. These form part of the container’s structural safety features.
Areas of application
The BAUER TYPE LIP-F 2800 transport and storage container is specifically designed for the transport of critically defective lithium-ion batteries, provided that the requirements of ADR packing instruction LP906 are met for the specific transport operation.
Typical areas of application include:
- Automotive industry and vehicle manufacturers
- Workshops and service centres
- Battery manufacturers and battery service providers
- Hazardous goods logistics
- Take-back of critically defective BEV batteries
- Recycling and waste management companies
- In-house handling of large-format traction batteries
- Preparation of damaged batteries for onward transport
Approvals / Standards
- UN packaging code: UN 50A/X/****/GB/BAUER-7276/0/1947
- ADR packaging instruction: LP906
- Max. tested battery capacity: 144 kWh
- Battery type: BEV batteries
Instructions for use
Before use, the base frame, cover, lashing points, fastenings, pressure relief valves and the components intended for handling should be checked for damage and to ensure they are functioning correctly. The battery to be transported must be secured against movement inside the container using the designated lashing points and straps.
For internal handling, the base frame is accessible from all four sides. The cover can be lifted using the two integrated lifting pockets or the four crane eyes. In addition, there are drill holes for attaching shackles. Due to its own weight of approx. 980 kg, suitable lifting and industrial handling equipment must be used.
Before transport, the hood must be correctly fitted and secured to the base frame using the lever-type fasteners.
Conclusion
The BAUER TYPE LIP-F 2800 transport and storage container offers a packaging solution specifically designed for the transport of large-format, critically defective lithium-ion batteries. A hot-dip galvanised base frame, a sheet steel cover with fire protection panels, an electrolyte collection tray, integrated load securing and two adjustable pressure relief valves form the key components of the system.

FAQ
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.

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.
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.
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.

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.
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.
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.
