Safety instructions 

2.1

 

Intended use 

The transport container is used for transporting lithium-ion and lithium-metal cells and batter-
ies. The transport container shall be used only in an undamaged and unmodified condition. 
The integrity of the transport container shall be checked before each use.

 

2.2

 

Information about PyroBubbles® 

PyroBubbles®

 

are  multi-cellular  hollow  glass  spheres,  which  are  not  dangerous  (dust  is  not 

respirable) in their solid form (delivery condition). If PyroBubbles® are ground or pulverized 
mechanically, continuous contact with high concentrations of respirable dust can impair lung 
functioning. The general dust limits of 1.25 mg/m

3

 for respirable (A dust) and 10 mg/m

3

 for 

inhalable (I dust) fractions must be observed. An individual time-weighted average must not 
exceed the value of 3 mg/m

3

 for the A-dust fraction. For details, refer to TRGS 900 (or respec-

tive nationally applicable technical rules for hazardous substances). If the dust concentration 
at the place of work exceeds the specified occupational exposure limit values, approved and 
suitable respiratory protection must be used (filter type P2).

 

It is recommended to wear eye protection in the case of dust formation, and to wear gloves in 
the case of skin contact. 

 

PyroBubbles® that no longer correspond to their condition at the time of delivery, must be 
disposed of in accordance with the disposal instructions (see section 6) and shall not be used 
further, because they no longer meet the requirements with respect to sorption capacity and 
thermal insulation.
