Dangerous goods international express

Dangerous goods international express, since January 1, 2017, the mobile power must be classified as a separately shipped lithium battery, where applicable, as a UN 3480 lithium ion battery or UN 3090 lithium metal battery, and the shipment should be Prepared according to the "2017 IATA Lithium Battery Guidance Document" published by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).

"Mobile power supply" refers to a portable device containing a lithium battery or multiple lithium batteries (usually installed with a working circuit protection circuit board). They are used to charge consumer electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

Therefore, the mobile power supply transported by FedEx is transported as the UN 3480 lithium ion battery or UN 3090 lithium metal battery of the fully regulated Section IA or Section IB according to the type of battery used in the power supply. The mobile power bank driven by the lithium metal battery UN3090 needs to be approved by FedEx in advance.

The following are common types of mobile power for reference:

Standard power bank. This type of equipment has a variety of sizes and configurations, which can be customized according to the needs of users and equipment. They usually have a small or micro USB socket for charging, and a full-size USB socket for discharging power.

Solar power bank. This power supply has a photovoltaic panel. When placed in the sun, it can charge the internal battery in a trickle charging mode.

Battery case. Although this type of older equipment has its convenience, its compatibility with the equipment is poor.

For more details, please refer to the 2017 IATA Lithium Battery Guidance Document to understand how these devices must be classified and how to prepare for the air transportation of these devices.
