Javier,

0:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alvin, Rebecca,

0:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

excellent.

0:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alfredo,

0:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

all right.

0:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Looks like that is the majority of us.

0:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Rodrigo,

0:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

everyone, welcome back.

0:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We'll go ahead and get started.

0:12

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Now,

0:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we've already discussed packaging non -damaged and damaged batteries

0:18

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

in inner packaging.

0:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So the next portion we'll cover is packaging those inners into

0:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

outer packagings for shipment.

0:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

As you can see,

0:27

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

again,

0:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

our BSO is wearing base PPE for packing the UN3090 non

0:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

-damaged batteries.

0:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Again,

0:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that base PPE is a hard hat,

0:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

safety glasses,

0:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

coveralls,

0:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and steel -toed shoes or boots.

0:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Some bases may also allow the lab coats.

0:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I'll first talk about inspecting outer packagings.

0:48

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

BSO must evaluate the condition of the exterior and

0:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

interior of the outer packaging before starting the packaging process.

0:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

When inspecting fiberboard boxes,

0:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

make sure the box is intact,

1:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

no holes,

1:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

tears, visible dents or creases,

1:05

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

water damage,

1:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

oil damage.

1:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure that the flaps are fully intact and not missing.

1:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

If one flap is missing,

1:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

fiberboard box is considered damaged and cannot be used.

1:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure the structural integrity is not compromised either.

1:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

When you are inspecting drums,

1:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

wear cut -resistant work gloves to avoid injury from the sharp edges

1:27

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of the drums.

1:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Our BSO is donning the cut -resistant work gloves.

1:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now we're going to check for rust.

1:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

cracks or other dents,

1:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

deformities to the exterior of our steel drum.

1:40

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

The

1:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

lids must also be carefully inspected.

1:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure the lever locks are complete and intact,

1:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

not warped.

1:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Do not replace the required O -rings on drums with any kind of tape.

1:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Talked about that yesterday.

1:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

O -ring is designed that uses a nut and a bolt.

2:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure that those are the correct size as well.

2:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So our BSO is checking the spot welds on the lever lock there.

2:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

It gave us a thumbs up and said this one is good to go.

2:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You also want to check the lid itself.

2:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Check the seal.

2:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure it's in good condition,

2:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that it's not rusted.

2:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

These lids,

2:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

they'll be lined with a rubber O -ring on the inside.

2:22

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So make sure that it's not warped.

2:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

It's in good condition as well.

2:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Give us a thumbs up,

2:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

so we are good to go.

2:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Next, let's talk about the UN certification,

2:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

so the PG rating.

2:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

UN -3090 lithium metal batteries must be packed in UN

2:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

-certified outer packagings for shipment.

2:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

If you recall from Module 6 .1,

2:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

certified outer packagings that will be marked with this UN testing certification.

2:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

At a minimum,

2:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the outer packaging is required to be PG -2 or Y -rated.

2:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1 or X -rated is also acceptable,

2:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and PG -3 or Z -rated outer packagings may only be

3:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

used in a handful of situations.

3:03

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

So,

3:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

for instance, the PG -3 may be used as the Strong Outer Packaging,

3:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

or SOP,

3:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

for UN3091 lithium metal batteries and equipment.

3:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -3 outer packaging may also be used when non -damaged

3:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

3090 lithium metal batteries are shipped domestically within the

3:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

United States.

3:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We're inspecting the certification here on this fiberboard box.

3:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

As you can see,

3:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1 rated with a maximum gross weight rating

3:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of 29 kilograms.

3:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We want to ensure that that UN certification is fully visible and

3:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that no labels are covering it and it's not torn.

3:38

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Okay,

3:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we'll now look at the UN certification of our metal drum.

3:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

all right so we have a short video that will uh show the interior and the exterior

3:48

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of the drum so we can kind of get a sense of what that looks like in real time

3:52

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

okay so

4:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

it's pg or this metal drum is also pg1 rated the maximum

4:05

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

allowable gross weight rating of 435 kilograms

4:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now, it's important to remember that the gross weight of any outer packaging,

4:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

despite the UN certification,

4:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

may never exceed 400 kilograms.

4:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That's per IMDG,

4:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

United States HMR,

4:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Transport Canada,

4:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and ADR regulations.

4:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Remember that the outer packagings containing 3090 lithium metal batteries

4:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

do not exceed a gross weight of 400 kilograms.

4:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

There's the UN certification on the inside,

4:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

outside, physically embossed.

4:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

into the structure.

4:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You win 182X435.

4:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So now do a little whiteboard quiz,

4:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

mini quiz of some of the UN markings.

4:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I talked about this yesterday,

4:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

but we're going to go ahead and recap some of that material that we discussed.

4:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So feel free to go.

5:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

ahead and navigate back to those modules there module 6 .1 or

5:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

if you feel confident with the material go ahead and help us out

5:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

here so have our BSO bring in a whiteboard

5:13

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

may recognize this table here for this particular portion

5:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of the training feel free to unmute yourselves you can use the chat room either of

5:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

those options is fine but your participation here is highly encouraged so

5:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

please do participate

5:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alright, so we have this table.

5:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We saw this in module 6 .1.

5:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We have XYZ.

5:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

In the second column,

5:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we have the packing groups.

5:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

On the right side,

5:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we have the level of hazard that would be permitted in that outer packaging.

5:42

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So let's start at the bottom.

5:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

What packing group corresponds with the letter Z?

5:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Rebecca, excellent.

5:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Thank you.

5:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

ZPG3 rated outer packaging.

5:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now,

5:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

is that for generally the high,

5:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

medium, or low hazard materials,

6:00

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

Rebecca?

6:00

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

The low.

6:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That's right.

6:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Low hazard materials.

6:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You got it.

6:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Said you were going to study.

6:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Looks like you did.

6:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

All right.

6:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now we have X at the top.

6:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's do that one next.

6:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG1 or 2.

6:20

S… Speaker 4 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1.

6:22

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1.

6:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

All right,

6:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

excellent.

6:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1,

6:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and that, of course,

6:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

is for what hazard of materials?

6:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

High hazard.

6:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

All right,

6:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

looks like we're all on the same page here.

6:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Excellent.

6:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

But that information was coming through clear yesterday.

6:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

This is very important stuff that you will see on your quiz as well.

6:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG -1 or X -rated outer packaging for your high hazard materials.

6:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

For my United States participants,

6:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

damaged batteries fall into that classification.

6:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Of course, that means Y is PG -2,

6:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and that is for our medium hazard materials.

6:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just remember that PG -2 rated outer packagings are required at

7:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

a minimum outside of the United States for non -damaged

7:05

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

or damaged batteries.

7:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Great job,

7:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

everyone.

7:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's turn up the heat a little bit.

7:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

On the other side of the whiteboard,

7:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we have some actual UN certifications of some outer packagings.

7:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We've seen a couple of these already so far in Field

7:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Practical Part 2 in the intro.

7:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's go ahead and break down these certifications.

7:29

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So what kind of outer packaging is this?

7:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

What level was it tested to?

7:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's help out with what each individual number and letter means in these

7:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

certifications.

7:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's start with number one.

7:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We have 4GVX29.

7:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Any takers?

7:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Yep.

7:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Feel free.

7:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You don't need to raise your hands.

7:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just kind of,

7:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I guess we could keep it organized.

7:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alfredo, your hand was up first.

7:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Do you want to help me out with this one?

7:59

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Yeah,

8:03

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

once.

8:04

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

So the four

8:08

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

is box,

8:09

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

and then it's fiber.

8:11

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

What was that?

8:13

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

Fiber board variation.

8:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Excellent.

8:18

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alfredo,

8:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

yes.

8:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Four, box.

8:22

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

And it's a PG -1?

8:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That's right.

8:26

S… Speaker 5 (0917 (1)-1)

With a max rating of 29 kilograms?

8:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Absolutely.

8:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Excellent.

8:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alfredo, that's perfect.

8:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

And I see Rebecca has that answer in the chat room as well.

8:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Box made of the fiberboard variation.

8:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Excellent.

8:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Great job, everyone.

8:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Remember,

8:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

gross weight,

8:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that's the completed weight of the combination packaging,

8:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

inner packaging,

8:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

cushioning material,

8:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and the weight of the outer packaging itself.

8:48

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Alfredo,

8:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

thanks for the help there.

8:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Appreciate that.

8:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

all right number two we have four dv y12

box.

9:38

S… Speaker 6 (0917 (1)-1)

And Y means PG2,

9:42

S… Speaker 6 (0917 (1)-1)

packing group 2.

9:44

S… Speaker 6 (0917 (1)-1)

And 12 means it's 12 kgs maximum

9:48

S… Speaker 7 (0917 (1)-1)

load. Sandeep,

9:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

perfect, excellent.

9:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Plywood box,

9:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we can go ahead and assume that that is a crate of some kind,

9:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

PG2,

9:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

maximum allowable gross weight of 12 kg.

10:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I see that your hand is raised.

10:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Did you have a question or did you want to take a shot at number three?

10:06

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

I wanted to take a shot at number

10:10

go ahead.

10:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

This one's a little bit trickier.

10:13

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

The floor is yours.

10:14

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

Okay.

10:16

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

So this is going to be a steel drum and

10:21

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

it's going to be like open head with a like or a removable head.

10:25

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Absolutely.

10:27

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

Based on what I do.

10:28

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

And then it's going to be PG one with a maximum weight of over

10:32

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

35 kilograms.

10:33

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

All right.

10:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Ayesha,

10:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

excellent job.

10:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I've got one more question for you.

10:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now,

10:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

let's say you have this exact same steel drum on site at your base

10:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

location.

10:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You're packaging your batteries in there,

10:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

getting it ready for shipment.

10:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

You place it on the freight scale and the weight comes out to 417

10:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

kilograms.

10:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Is that going to be okay to proceed with shipment?

10:55

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

No,

10:59

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

because the maximum weight,

11:01

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

allowable weight is like 400 kilograms,

11:04

S… Speaker 3 (0917 (1)-1)

right? So that's going to be okay.

11:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Ayesha,

11:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

excellent.

11:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Wow, look at this.

11:09

S… Speaker 4 (0917 (1)-1)

Luis,

11:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

fantastic class.

11:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Everyone on the same page here.

11:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I actually feel good about this.

11:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That was probably the best seeing everyone grasp material.

11:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So give yourselves a round of applause.

11:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Great job,

11:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

everyone.

11:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Appreciate all the participation there.

11:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Great job.

11:27

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

A lot of this will be on the exam after the course is

11:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

completed as well.

11:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So y 'all are all in great shape.

11:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Have a lot of faith that everyone's going to pass with

11:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

flying colors there.

11:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So no worries.

11:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now, if you recall from the modules,

11:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we'll package the batteries in what we call a combination packaging,

11:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

which consists of the three parts,

11:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the inner packaging,

11:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

cushioning material,

11:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and the outer packaging.

11:53

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Now,

11:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the cushioning we select must be absorbent,

11:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

non -conductive,

11:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and non -reactive.

11:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Remember that a list of the approved cushioning materials can be found in Appendix

12:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

H in the Packaging Guide.

12:05

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

So,

12:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

here's an example of the combination packaging,

12:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

box,

12:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

outer packaging.

12:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Inner packaging on fiberboard tube,

12:13

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

heavy -duty craft paper,

12:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that's an approved cushioning material.

12:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Those three components,

12:18

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

you're good to go.

12:19

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

All right,

12:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

so these are just some of the options that you can use.

12:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So we'll go ahead and demonstrate the packaging and layering procedure for

12:27

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

three common outer packagings now.

12:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We'll first look at examples of layering methods inside

12:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of the outer packagings,

12:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and then we'll go ahead and do one as a group as well.

12:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So, first example I want to look at is a wood crate.

12:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now,

12:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

for demonstration purposes only,

12:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we have cut this wood crate in half and installed plexiglass on the

12:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

inside just to aid with the visual aspect of what the

12:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

outer packaging should look like when they're correctly layered.

12:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Again,

12:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we're all on the same page here.

13:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Please do not alter your outer packaging in any way,

13:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

shape, or form.

13:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That will void the UN certification.

13:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

All right, so let's go ahead and look at the craft paper side there first.

13:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Very straightforward.

13:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We remember craft paper there at the bottom,

13:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

base layer all the way around,

13:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and you can place your first layer of batteries,

13:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

fiberboard tubes.

13:20

S… Speaker 4 (0917 (1)-1)

Photos,

13:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos, photos.

13:22

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Next layer of craft paper.

13:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We have some batteries and mylar bags there.

13:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Another layer of craft paper.

13:29

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Looks like we have some PE bags,

13:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

some batteries wrapped in craft paper,

13:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and then fill the void space.

13:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Much cushioning material as you possibly can towards the top before

13:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

securing the lid into place.

13:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

This looks good.

13:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just photos throughout that entire process.

13:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

And again,

13:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

you can use different types of inner packagings and different types of

13:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

batteries within the same outer packaging.

13:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So long as they are all UN3090,

13:55

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

they're all non -damaged.

13:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Let's take a look at the vermiculite side.

14:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Pretty straightforward process here as well.

14:05

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just remember we have that one extra step.

14:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So you have that base layer of vermiculite,

14:08

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

then you can place your first layer of batteries,

14:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

more vermiculite on top.

14:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

I'm not sure if you're able to see here,

14:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

but we have separating layers of craft paper after

14:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

each of those vermiculite layers there.

14:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Vermiculite batteries,

14:22

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

vermiculite,

14:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

separating layer of craft paper,

14:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

liner board,

14:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

plastic sheeting.

14:29

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

vermiculite next layer of batteries vermiculite separating layer and

14:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

then vermiculite as close as you can to the top of the outer packaging before securing

14:37

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the lid into place as a reminder that's just like

14:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

that so the vermiculite does not sift towards the bottom of the outer packaging as

14:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

you'll see in a second it does have a tendency to do that you don't have the separating

14:50

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

layers but both of those look good excellent i would sign off

14:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

on that ready for shipment

15:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

okay so the next example we'll look at here is going to be using a

15:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

metal drum all right also cut in half installed some plexiglass just

15:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

for demonstration purposes right here

15:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we have some bundles in this particular instance craft paper

15:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

at the bottom first layer of bundles craft paper bundles and

15:32

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

then craft paper at the very top before the lid goes on photos photos

15:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos you're good to go

15:38

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

What I really wanted to look at here was the opposite side,

15:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the vermiculite side here.

15:42

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now the BSO that packaged this side of our metal drum didn't

15:46

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

take that extra couple of seconds to really pay attention to the cushioning

15:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

material. And you can really see the drastic difference here,

15:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

right?

15:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So there's vermiculite at the bottom,

15:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

some inner packagings,

15:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

no separating layer really,

16:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

more vermiculite on top,

16:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and then just a ton of inner packagings thrown at the top.

16:06

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now, the BSO probably did cover those batteries with additional

16:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

vermiculite,

16:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

but again,

16:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

it's a very dry,

16:13

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

fine particulate.

16:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

It has a tendency to want to sift towards the bottom of the outer packaging.

16:18

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So again,

16:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

just a reminder here,

16:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

make sure that your batteries are sufficiently cushioned,

16:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

not only from the interior walls of the outer packaging,

16:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

but all the way towards the top,

16:28

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and in fact,

16:29

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

even press down a little bit.

16:31

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

to make sure that they're not shifting around during transit that can lead to the batteries

16:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

bumping into each other walls of the outer packaging they can become damaged

16:40

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and that can create unnecessary hazard for others later on

16:44

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

down the line in your shipment not to mention some potential fees and

16:48

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

penalties that may be assessed if that were to be flagged and stopped

16:52

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

at the port of entry in any country all right

16:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

But I think we're on the same page here.

16:57

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Don't need to worry about that.

16:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just make sure you get plenty of photos throughout the whole process and that you cushion your batteries

17:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

efficiently and you'll be good to go.

17:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now that we've seen the two approved layering methods

17:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

inside of wood crate,

17:11

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

metal drum,

17:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

our BSO will demonstrate how those layers are actually prepared

17:16

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and just some tips and tricks for how to have your batteries

17:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

packaged as efficiently and as effectively

17:24

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

as possible.

17:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Our BSO will grab the completed intermediate packagings from the

17:29

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Field Part 1 demonstration and then begin placing them inside of

17:33

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

this wood crate with some non -conductive cushioning material.

17:36

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

First

17:58

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

step here,

17:59

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we

18:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

want to inspect the entire UN certification marking.

18:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure that that's still visible.

18:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

And of course,

18:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

inspect your crate to make sure that it's not damaged,

18:12

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the hinges are intact,

18:13

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the metal flanges at the top.

18:15

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Those are in good shape and that you're good to go.

18:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

And then you'll place that layer of non -conductive cushioning material in the bottom of the wood crate.

18:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We are using craft paper as our approved cushioning material.

18:26

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Just remember,

18:27

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

if you use loose cushioning material like vermiculite,

18:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

line the box first with plastic sheeting or craft paper

18:35

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

or place duct tape at the seams to prevent any spillage and use those separating

18:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

layers.

18:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now we can place our first layer of the bundles in the outer packaging.

18:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure to try to leave at least one inch of space between the walls

18:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

of the outer packaging and the layer of the batteries so

18:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

you can sufficiently cushion them inside the outer packaging.

18:57

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Put some

19:03

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

void space towards the back,

19:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we'll fill that up.

19:05

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Photos,

19:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos, photos.

19:10

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now you'll notice our BSO is going to take the next piece of craft paper and fold

19:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

it along the back and the sides of the batteries as well,

19:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

kind of protecting it from the interior walls,

19:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the outer packaging,

19:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

completely across the top.

19:24

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Looks

19:34

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

good.

19:34

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Next layer of batteries,

19:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we'll throw an intermediate gallon size bag in there,

19:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

or bundles of PE bags,

19:42

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos,

19:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos, photos,

19:43

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

and fill

19:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

the remaining volume of the wood crate with as much craft paper as possible.

19:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

before you place that link.

20:01

S… Speaker 7 (0917 (1)-1)

Looks good.

20:02

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Get that crate on,

20:04

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

our crate lid.

20:05

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Before

20:14

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

we secure that lid down with the metal clips,

20:17

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

you want to first check the maximum gross weight of the crate.

20:20

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Make sure that you haven't exceeded the UN certification permissible

20:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

gross weight.

20:25

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Grab a scale,

20:28

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

grab some

20:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

photos, and you are good to go.

20:41

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now this is an example of the types of crates that are available from

20:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Jet.

20:45

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

This is a very small one.

20:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

This is the smallest size that we supply,

20:49

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

but they do get much bigger.

20:51

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

They are all designed in the same way,

20:53

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

though. At the top,

20:54

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

they have those little metal clips here.

20:56

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So I'll put a little overhead shot so you can kind of see what we're

21:00

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

talking about.

21:01

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

What you want to do is grab a hammer and hit those outwards

21:05

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

and downwards all the way along the top,

21:07

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

outwards and downwards.

21:09

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

That'll secure the lid into place.

21:18

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

And you are good to go.

21:19

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Now that is the approved layering process.

21:21

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

We've seen a couple examples there.

21:23

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Do we have any questions?

21:24

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Thumbs

21:30

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

up. Good to go.

21:32

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

Excellent.

21:34

S… Speaker 2 (0917 (1)-1)

All right.

21:36

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

Well, now that we've seen the layering of the batteries inside,

21:39

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

let's look at the labeling aspect now.

21:43

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

So we'll first look at the non -damaged batteries outer

21:47

S… Speaker 1 (0917 (1)-1)

packaging labeling.
