IEC 60086-1
Code of practice for packaging and shipment of primary batteries given in IEC 60086-1:
The packaging shall be adequate to avoid mechanical damage during transport, handling and stacking. The materials
and pack design shall be chosen so as to prevent the development of unintentional electrical conduction, corrosion of
the terminals and ingress of moisture.
Shock and vibration shall be kept to a minimum. For instance, boxes should not be thrown off trucks, slammed into
position or piled so high as to overload battery containers below. Protection from inclement weather should be
provided.
15. Regulatory information
Marking consideration:
According to
“DIRECTIVE 2006/66/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT
AND OF THE COUNCIL of 6 September 2006 on batteries and accumulators
and waste batteries and accumulators and repealing Directive 91/157/EEC” the
batteries have to be marked with the crossed bin.
For the state of California the battery types CR 123 A -R and CR 2 -R
have to be
marked as “containing perchlorate”.
International safety standards:
The basis cells are recognized components according to UL 1642.
Water hazard class:

applicable as Lithium primary batteries are articles and not substances, thus
there is no risk of water pollution, except the batteries are violated or
dismantled..
