10 Transport and storage

10.1

Transport

Lithium-ion batteries are dangerous goods. The battery modules are designed and tested in such a way that
they may be transported up to a total weight of 333 kg under compliance with the conditions of ADR 1.1.3.6 (not
transport requiring labelling provided there are no other dangerous goods on or in the vehicle). The other
requirements of GGVSEB and ADR must also be complied with. Delivery takes place in tested dangerous goods
packaging. The lithium-ion batteries were successfully subjected to the UN 38.3 Transport test (UN Manual of
Tests and Criteria, Part III, subsection 38.3) and passed it. The storage cabinet is packed separately from the
battery modules.
