Lithium battery UN38.3 certification——ZRLK

Introduction to UN38.8

In order to ensure the safety of air transportation and meet the customers' needs for the transportation of goods containing lithium batteries, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the International Air Transport Association "Dangerous Goods Regulations", the operating specifications for rechargeable lithium batteries, namely UN38.3 testing, have been formulated.

According to the requirements of civil aviation regulations, airlines and airport cargo receiving and transportation departments should review the transportation documents of lithium batteries. The most important thing is the UN38.3 safety test report of each type of lithium battery. The report can be provided by a third-party testing agency designated by civil aviation, or by a battery manufacturer with testing capabilities. If this test report cannot be provided, civil aviation will prohibit air transportation of lithium batteries.

Specific requirements:

UN38.3 refers to paragraph 38.3 of the "United Nations Manual of Dangerous Goods Transport Tests and Standards" specially formulated by the United Nations for the transportation of dangerous goods, which requires that lithium batteries must pass high simulation, high and low temperature cycles, Only vibration test, shock test, 55℃ external short circuit, impact test, overcharge test, and forced discharge test can ensure the safety of lithium battery transportation. If the lithium battery and the equipment are not installed together, and each package contains more than 24 battery cells or 12 batteries, it must pass the 1.2-meter free drop test.

Lithium battery UN38.3 certification test certification process

1. Sign the quotation

2. Send samples and submit materials

3. Test

4. Application for appraisal

5. Issue a report

Lithium battery UN38.3 certification test needs to prepare information

1. Fill in the application form (fill in battery information)

2. Battery specification

3. Battery specification

4. Test samples (the model and watt-hour parameters must be marked on the sample nameplate, and must be consistent with the battery during shipment and transportation)

If you need an outbound cargo transportation condition identification report (air/sea/land transportation), the following information is also required

5. Relevant materials such as power of attorney and transportation declaration

6. Packaging picture (outer package picture, outer package opening picture, inner package picture)

(The above information can provide templates)

Lithium battery UN38.3 certification test items

1. Highly simulated test

2. Temperature test

3. Vibration test

4. Impact test

5. External short circuit test

6. Extrusion/impact test

7. Overcharge test

8. Forced discharge test

Because it is necessary to pass the safety battery test of the above 8 items to confirm the safety guarantee of the battery during transportation, and the same batch of test samples must be tested in order from 1 to 5, so the test cycle takes two weeks.
