Transportation
WARNING:
Fire hazard. Transporting
batteries can possibly cause fire if the battery terminals
inadvertently come in contact with conductive materials.
When transporting batteries, make sure that the battery
terminals are protected and well insulated from materials
that could contact them and cause a short circuit.
NOTE: Lithium-ion batteries should not be put in
checked baggage.
Trend batteries comply with all applicable shipping
regulations as prescribed by industry and legal standards
which include UN Recommendations on the Transport
of Dangerous Goods; International Air Transport
Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations,
International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG)
Regulations, and the European Agreement Concerning
The International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by
Road (ADR). Lithium-ion cells and batteries have been
tested to section 38.3 of the UN Recommendations on
the Transport of Dangerous Goods Manual of Tests and
Criteria.
In most instances, shipping a Trend battery pack will
be excepted from being classified as a fully regulated
Class 9 Hazardous Material. In general, only shipments
containing a lithium-ion battery with an energy rating
greater than 100 Watt Hours (Wh) will require being
shipped as fully regulated Class 9.
All lithium-ion batteries have the Watt Hour rating
marked on the pack. Furthermore, due to regulation
complexities, Trend does not recommend air shipping
lithium-ion battery packs alone regardless of Watt Hour
rating. Shipments of tools with batteries (combo kits) can
be air shipped as excepted if the Watt Hour rating of the
battery pack is no greater than 100 Whr.
Regardless of whether a shipment is considered
excepted or fully regulated, it is the shipper's
responsibility to consult the latest regulations for
packaging, labelling/marking and documentation
requirements.
The information provided in this section of the manual
is provided in good faith and believed to be accurate
