• Lithium Batteries
This drive contains one small 3V lithium battery on the DPM board.
The battery part # 346567-Q01 or BR2335 contains approximately
0.09 g of lithium metal. These batteries meet shipping regulations at
the time of publication, however there are specific marking and
packaging requirements. Properly packaged single, spare or expired
batteries may be shipped consigned as UN3090 PI 968 Part 1. A
maximum of two spare cells may be packaged with the DPM,
provided they are mechanically separated from each other during
shipment. Shipping cartons shall bear the warning: “Primary Lithium
Batteries – Forbidden for transport aboard passenger aircraft.”
Lithium batteries must be disposed of according to local regulations
and must not be disposed of with general landfill refuse.
• In Case Of Fire
This drive is highly protected against arcing faults and therefore it is
very unlikely the drive would be the cause of a fire. In addition, the
materials in the drive are self-extinguishing (i.e. they will not burn
without a sustained external flame). If, however, the drive is
subjected to a sustained fire from some other source, some of the
polymer materials in the drive will produce toxic gases. As with any
fire, individuals involved in extinguishing the fire or anyone in close
proximity should wear a self-contained breathing apparatus to protect
against any inhalation of toxic gases.
Disposal
When disposing of the drive, it should be disassembled and separated into
groups of recyclable material as much as possible (i.e. steel, copper,
plastic, wire, etc.). These materials should then be sent to local recycling
facilities. In addition, all disposal precautions mentioned above must also
be taken for those particular materials.
