BW Outdoor Case Type 6040, Special case for transport of Lithium Ion batteries with Cirrux Inlay

**Special case for the safe transport of Lithium Ion batteries **About six million in Nordic countries already own an e-bike or pedelec. The industry is booming. Dealers are therefore increasingly faced with the challenge of storing and transporting lithium-ion batteries as an energy source for these bikes. For transport they need a certified and safe solution, because lithium ion batteries are always classified as dangerous goods, regardless of whether they are new and intact, used or even damaged. Safe storage is also important for owners of e-bikes and pedelecs, for example if they do not use their bikes for a long time outside the season and have removed the batteries.B&W International has now developed the outdoor.case type 6040 with Cirrux fiberglass inlay - the first case that is also certified for the transport of defective lithium-ion batteries over land, water and in the air (certificate no. 190313, Belgian Packaging Institute BVI). As the batteries are highly flammable and have explosive properties even when intact, the special case had to pass extensive tests for hazardous goods packaging in order to be certified for the transport of lithium ion batteries including lithium ion polymer batteries according to UN regulation 3480. The case is certified for the transport or storage of two Li-Ion batteries with a capacity of up to 750Wh per battery.For the outdoor.case type 6040, B&W International uses an adapted Cirrux fiberglass cushion as an inlay. This special padding material is characterized by the fact that it is neither flammable nor conductive and serves as thermal insulation. The cushion filled with glass fibers is protected against short circuits and is absorbent. Even leaking battery acid has no negative consequences. Since Cirrux as a cushion is more pressure-elastic than granulates, the material can neither dust nor crumble.**All features at a glance*** Extremely stable case: Polypropylene (PP) housing* certified according to STANAG 4280, DEF STAN 81-41 and ATA 300* stackable* dustproof* watertight (IP 67 protection)* Temperature stable from -30 °C to +80 °C* Airworthy for flight: automatic air pressure compensation valve* 2 eyelets for padlock* Inner dimensions: 476 x 356 x 124 mm* Outer dimensions: 512 x 420 x 148 mm* Weight: 6 Kg* Volume: 21.0 L* Ergonomic two-component handle* Two-stage closures* Optional lift-off hinge for removable lid* 30 years warranty* color: black*The shown case content is not included in the delivery.*
