In addition to storing intact lithium batteries, the Lio Guard XS-Box 2 Classic transport container is particularly suitable for damaged cells, which pose a significant hazard both during transport and handling. The plastic battery containers in the Lio Guard series are ideal for applications such as e-bike batteries, power tools and laptops that use lithium-ion batteries.
Size and capacity of the battery transport container
The Lio Guard XS-Box 2 Basic transport container has a volume of 22 litres and can hold 11 kg of dangerous goods with a maximum size of 318 x 218 x 188 mm. The empty weight is 2.0 kg, with a maximum gross weight of 13 kg. This is the larger of two models in the XS series of Lio Guard plastic transport containers. Based on experience with commercially available and everyday lithium-ion batteries, the total capacity of all batteries stored in the GENIUS XS-Box 2 Basic should not exceed 0.8 kWh in total.
Compact dimensions ensure flexibility in use for storage and transport of batteries.
The battery container is extremely handy and flexible in use. The Lio Guard XS-Box 2 Basic transport and storage container is particularly compact with external dimensions of 400 x 300 x 285 mm and internal dimensions of 358 x 258 x 228 mm (length x width x height), making it ideal for use in confined spaces and with a small number of lithium-ion batteries. In addition, the boxes can be stacked up to a height of three metres, thus taking up minimal storage space.

Wide temperature range from -20°C to +80°C
The container is made of robust polypropylene and can be used in a temperature range from -20°C to 80°C. However, batteries should always be stored at a temperature between 15°C and 30°C for longer periods of time
.
Use battery containers in combination with PyroBubbles ®
Individual and expensive transport solutions can be replaced by using this economical and standardised product. The boxes are permanently reusable and are available in Basic, Advanced and Premium versions. The battery storage and transport box is filled with PyroBubbles extinguishing granulate ®, which forms a closed and thermally insulating layer around a source of fire.
Delivery includes Pyrobubbles – the battery box is ready for immediate use
This version of the box comes with 23 small PE filling cushions weighing 0.22 kg (0.70 litres) each. The cushions are surrounded by thin, needle-punched polyethylene (PE) film, which dissolves in the event of a fire, releasing the extinguishing agent. Tension straps with quick-release fasteners ensure that the lid remains closed. Even in the event of a chain reaction (thermal runaway), the surrounding area is reliably protected.
Packaging group, special provisions and packaging instructions
Lithium batteries fall into dangerous goods class 9, which means that the goods pose a significant risk to the environment during transport. Numerous regulations and guidelines must therefore be observed when transporting lithium batteries. The transport boxes in the Lio Guard series have been specially designed to comply with the relevant safety regulations.
Battery container is certified for packaging group II
The containers in the Lio Guard series meet the requirements of packaging group II, which means that substances with a medium hazard potential may be transported in them. To achieve this classification, the box must be type-tested and withstand a drop height of 1.2 metres.
Suitable for transport in accordance with SV 376 of the ADR and packaging instruction P 908
All lithium-ion cells or batteries and lithium metal cells or batteries that have been damaged and no longer comply with the applicable regulations in accordance with their manual must comply with the provisions of Special Provision 376 (SV 376). This applies, for example, to cells that have leaked or degassed, suffered external or mechanical damage, or have been identified as defective for safety reasons, or could not be diagnosed prior to transport. These cells must then be packed in accordance with packing instruction P 908. According to this guideline, it must be ensured, for example, that any electrolyte that is released is absorbed and that a non-electrically conductive thermal insulation material protects the environment from dangerous heat build-up.
For storage, transport and recycling in accordance with SV 377 of the ADR and packaging instruction P 909
Special provision SV 377 regulates the transport of lithium-ion cells or batteries and lithium metal cells or batteries that are being transported for disposal or recycling. Similar to packaging instruction P 908, P 909 requires compliance with guidelines for packaging group II. In addition, restrictions apply to the nominal energy and weight of lithium-ion cells and batteries.
Prototype transport according to SV 310 of the ADR and packaging instruction P 910
Special provision SV 310 regulates the transport of prototypes of lithium-ion cells or batteries and lithium metal cells or batteries. Packaging instruction P 910 then specifies requirements for packaging and dangerous goods mass, among other things.

Premium Line
battery boxes – for even greater stability and safety
The Premium Line battery boxes from Genius' Lio-Guard series feature a powder-coated steel insert that is embedded in the box. A 10 x 10 mm grid is incorporated into the base of the steel insert, keeping the battery cells stored in the container away from the outer walls of the container. In the Premium Line, this steel insert is not removable.
Advanced Line battery containers – for particularly efficient handling
The Advance Line boxes offer maximum efficiency in the handling of lithium-ion batteries. Here, a powder-coated steel basket is embedded in the container, which, unlike the Premium Line containers, is removable, making it much easier to fill and remove the Li-ion batteries.
