What are dangers for shipping lithium battery?

With the continuous improvement of modern living standards, traveling by plane has become the choice of more and more people. Recently, the security checkpoint of Haikou Meilan International Airport (referred to as Meilan Airport) has ensured that passengers have passed the inspection and found that a tourist team has a charging treasure in the upper part of the passenger checked baggage. When the staff asked the passenger to take out the charging treasure and ask him to carry it with him, many passengers said that they did not understand that the charging treasure was not a lithium battery. Is charging battery a lithium battery? Give everyone a science today!

What are the hidden dangers of lithium battery shipping?

Charging treasure belongs to lithium battery polymer storage device, which is equivalent to a large-capacity lithium battery device backup battery. Like lithium batteries contained in mobile phones, iPads, notebook computers, cameras, cameras, etc., it is very hot after being exposed to heat in high altitude environment. It is easy to cause spontaneous combustion. If the lithium battery is directly transported into the baggage and the baggage is squeezed or collided in a small cargo space, the lithium battery will spontaneously ignite, which seriously threatens flight safety.

According to the statistics of Meilan Airport security checkpoint, about 800 cases of lithium-ion battery products in checked baggage are required to be inspected daily, accounting for 61% of the inspection work for security inspection. Due to the potential dangers of lithium battery product consignment, passengers need to wait and cooperate with the treatment, which reduces the work efficiency of the check-in counter to a certain extent, resulting in the phenomenon of slow check-in, long queues and missteps in the airport, which also affects invisibly. Everyone's travel.

What should you pay attention to when carrying a lithium battery?

1. According to the relevant regulations of the Civil Aviation Administration, spare lithium batteries with a rated energy value of less than 100Wh are only allowed to be carried by hand or carried, and should be discharged after being insulated.

2. A spare lithium battery with a rated energy of 100Wh. The limited carrying capacity shall not exceed 2 pieces, and the excess part refuses to be transported;

3. The rated energy value is greater than 160 wh. Lithium battery electronic equipment and spare lithium battery are prohibited from transportation. [Rated energy value (Wh) = battery core or battery capacity (Ah) × nominal voltage (v)];

4. Lithium batteries and spare lithium batteries in portable electronic medical devices for passengers and crews are limited in lithium content and rated energy when transported as luggage: lithium metal or lithium alloy batteries, lithium content should not exceed 8g; lithium batteries the rated energy should not exceed 160Wh. At the same time, the detachable lithium battery in an electric wheelchair or similar travel tool should have a rated energy of no more than 300Wh.

Which types of lithium batteries and "charging treasures" are prohibited from being carried?

1. A lithium battery without a rated energy value or lithium content;

2. "Charging treasure" without indicating the specification information;

3. "Charging treasure" that cannot measure the rated energy value of the battery through the specification information.

Lithium battery energy reference list:

1. The energy of mobile phone lithium battery is generally 3Wh ~ 10Wh;

2. The energy of the SLR camera lithium battery is mostly 10Wh~20Wh;

3. Portable camera lithium battery energy is 20Wh ~ 40Wh;

4. Professional camera lithium battery energy may exceed 100Wh;

5. Laptop lithium battery energy is 30Wh ~ 100Wh.

Meilan Airport reminds all travelers that for your flight safety, please purchase good quality lithium battery products and carry them with you, and check whether your baggage contains lithium batteries before traveling to avoid inconvenience on your travel.
