Environmental protection
The equipment must be disposed of in accordance with national legislation.
It’s recommended to dismantle
the product as much as possible before disposal. Never attempt to dismantle the battery.
10.1 Packaging, transport, and storage
The battery must be packaged and transported according to the current regulations for lithium-ion batteries.
These are also applicable when the product is re-packaged in case of a return delivery.
10.1.1 Packaging
The packaging must be labelled with a UN3480 lithium-ion battery label as shown. If packaged with other
components, the LOGICcell must remain in its primary packaging. In this scenario, the battery label must be
placed on the external packaging.
10.1.2 Transport
Regulations for transporting lithium-ion batteries are set for road transport (ADR), air transport (IATA) and
sea transport (IMDG). The Battery Pack must be handled with care to minimize the risk of malfunction,
damage, and injuries. IATA rules, as of April 2016, that lithium batteries may only be charged to a max. 30%
if they are to be transported by air (passenger and freight aircraft).
10.1.3 Storage
It is important that batteries meant for long duration storage regularly are charged, with the time between
charging varying between different storage conditions. Batteries that arrive by air must be charged prior to
storage. In ideal storage conditions, the batteries must be recharged once every 4 months. Depending on
temperature, the time between charging may be more frequent.
