Reformatted packing instructions

The packing instructions have undergone an extensive review by the Dangerous Goods Panel (DGP) which will result in
revisions to their design and content. The new packing instructions will become applicable on 1 January 2011; they are
presented here for information purposes only.

The new packing instructions use a more rational numbering system and remove many of the anomalies and inconsistencies
which exist in the present system. As much as possible, they are consistent in structure and facilitate the allocation of packing
instructions to substances which might be added to the dangerous goods list. Particular points of note include:

a) IP codes for inner packagings have been removed from the packing instructions. This is consistent with the approach
taken in the UN Model Regulations. The packing instructions contain a reference to Part 6;3.2 which describes the
requirements for the different inner packagings.

b) The packing instructions will retain the three numeric numbering scheme with the first number identifying the applicable
class. To ensure that there is no confusion between the current packing instructions and those which are new, all new
numbers have been applied. Table A-3 provides a cross reference between the existing and new packing instruction
numbers listed by UN number and packing group. This list can also be downloaded from
www.icao.int/anb/FLS/dangerousgoods/packinginstructions in Excel worksheet format.

c) The requirement for inner liners, which had been introduced for liquid dangerous goods, are removed from all packing
instructions except those for substances in Packing Group I. This is replaced by a requirement that there must be
positive means of ensuring that closures remain effective; a liner will still be required where secondary means of
closure cannot be applied. This requirement is specifically identified in each packing instruction by reference to 4;1.1.4,
which will be amended as follows:

1.1.4 The body and closure of any packaging must be so constructed as to be able to adequately resist the
effects of temperature and vibration occurring in normal conditions of transport. Closures must be held securely, tightly
and effectively in place by secondary means. Examples of such methods include: adhesive tape, friction sleeves,
welding or soldering, positive locking wires, locking rings, induction heat seals and child-resistant closures. The closure
device must be so designed that it is unlikely that it can be incorrectly or incompletely closed.

1.1.4.1 When secondary means of closure cannot be applied to an inner packaging containing liquids the inner
packaging must be securely closed and placed in a leakproof liner and then placed in an outer packaging.

Comments on the reformatted packing instructions are welcome and should be submitted through the ICAO packing
instructions website at www.icao.int/anb/FLS/dangerousgoods/packinginstructions. These will be reviewed by the DGP in
October 2009 and minor amendments may be made based on this review.

— The generator, without its packaging, must be capable of withstanding a 1.8 m drop test onto a rigid, non-
resilient, flat and horizontal surface, in the position most likely to cause actuation, without loss of its contents and
without actuation. For portable breathing equipment (PBE), which are in a vacuum-sealed bag as part of their
containment system, this test may be conducted on the PBE in the vacuum-sealed bag.
— When a generator is equipped with an actuating device, it must have at least two positive means of preventing
unintentional actuation. For PBE, which are in a vacuum-sealed bag as part of their containment system, the
vacuum-sealed bag may be considered the second positive means of preventing unintentional actuation.
— The generator(s) must be transported in a package which will meet the following requirements when one
generator in the package is actuated:

1) other generators in the package will not be actuated;


2) packaging material will not ignite; and
3) the outside surface temperature of the completed package will not exceed 100°C.

Note.— To enable tests 1), 2) and 3) to be conducted on PBE, it is acceptable to break the vacuum-sealed
bag to actuate the generator before placing it in the package.

TESTING

Batteries can be considered as non-spillable provided that they are capable of withstanding the vibration and
pressure differential tests given below, without leakage of battery fluid.

Vibration test: The battery is rigidly clamped to the platform of a vibration machine and a simple harmonic motion
having an amplitude of 0.8 mm (1.6 mm maximum total excursion) is applied. The frequency is varied at the rate of
1 Hz/min between the limits of 10 Hz to 55 Hz. The entire range of frequencies and return is traversed in 95 ± 5
minutes for each mounting position (direction of vibration) of the battery. The battery must be tested in three
mutually perpendicular positions (to include testing with fill openings and vents, if any, in an inverted position) for
equal time periods.

Pressure differential test: Following the vibration test, the battery is stored for six hours at 24°C ±4°C while subjected
to a pressure differential of at least 88 kPa. The battery must be tested in three mutually perpendicular positions (to
include testing with fill openings and vents, if any, in an inverted position) for at least six hours in each position.

Note.— Non-spillable type batteries which are an integral part of, and necessary for the operation of, mechanical
or electronic equipment must be securely fastened in the battery holder on the equipment and protected in such a
manner so as to prevent damage and short circuits.

108 Reformatted packing instructions (applicable from 1 January 2011

ADDITIONAL PACKING REQUIREMENTS

Magnetized material will be accepted only when:

a) devices such as magnetrons and light meters have been packed so that the polarities of the individual units
oppose one another;

b) permanent magnets, where possible, have keeper bars installed;

c) the magnetic field strength at a distance of 4.6 m from any point on the surface of the assembled
consignment:

1) does not exceed 0.418 A/m; or

2) produces a magnetic compass deflection of 2 degrees or less.

Magnetized material may be shipped in a unit load device or other type of pallet prepared by a single shipper
provided that the shipper has made prior arrangements with the operator. The shipper must provide the operator
with written documentation stating the number of packages of magnetized material contained in each unit load
device or other type of pallet.

Note.— For loading restrictions, see 7;2.10.

Determination of shielding requirements

The magnetic field strength of magnetized materials must be measured using measuring devices having a sensitivity
sufficient to measure magnetic fields greater than 0.0398 A/m within a tolerance of plus or minus 5 per cent, or with
a magnetic compass sensitive enough to read a 2 degree variation, preferably in 1-degree increments or finer. If the
maximum field strength observed at a distance of 2.1 m is less than 0.159 A/m or there is no significant compass
deflection (less than 0.5 degree), the article is not restricted as a magnetized material. Methods of determining if a
magnetized article meets the definition of a magnetized material include:

a) When an oersted meter is used, it is placed on one of two points positioned 4.6 m apart and located in an
area that is free from magnetic interference other than the earth’s magnetic field. The oersted meter is then
aligned with the second point and “balanced” to a zero reading. The magnetic article is then placed on the
other point and the magnetic field strength is measured by reading the meter while rotating the package 360
degrees in its horizontal plane. If the maximum field strength observed is 0.418 A/m or less, the article is
acceptable for air transport. When the maximum field strength exceeds 0.418 A/m, shielding should be
applied until a reading of 0.418 A/m or less has been attained.

b) When a magnetic compass is used as a sensing device, it should be placed on one of two points positioned
4.6 m apart which are aligned in an East/West direction and in an area that is free from any magnetic
interference other than the earth’s magnetic field. The packaged item to be tested is placed on the other point
and rotated 360 degrees in its horizontal plane for indication of compass deflection. When the maximum
compass deflection observed is 2 degrees or less, the article is acceptable for air transport. When the
maximum compass deflection of an item exceeds 2 degrees, shielding must be applied until the maximum
deflection is not more than 2 degrees.

Packing Instruction 963


Passenger and cargo aircraft for ID 8000 only

Consumer commodities are materials that are packaged and distributed in a form intended or suitable for retail sale for
the purposes of personal care or household use. These include items administered or sold to patients by doctors or
medical administrations. Except as otherwise provided below, dangerous goods packed in accordance with this
packing instruction do not need to comply with 4;1 or Part 6 of these Instructions; they must, however, comply with all
other applicable requirements.

a) Each packaging must be designed and constructed to prevent leakage that may be caused by changes in
altitude and temperature during air transport.

b) Inner packagings that are breakable (such as earthenware, glass or brittle plastic) must be packed to
prevent breakage and leakage under conditions normally incident to transport. These completed packagings
must be capable of withstanding a 1.2 m drop on solid concrete in the position most likely to cause damage.

c) When filling receptacles for liquids, sufficient ullage (outage) must be left to ensure that neither leakage nor
permanent distortion of the receptacle will occur as a result of an expansion of the liquid caused by
temperatures likely to prevail during transport. Unless specific requirements are prescribed in national rules or
international agreements, liquids must not completely fill a receptacle at a temperature of 55°C. At this
temperature a minimum ullage of 2 per cent should be left. The primary packaging (which may include
composite packaging), for which retention of the liquid is a basic function, must be capable of withstanding,
without leakage, an internal pressure which produces a pressure differential of not less than 75 kPa or a
pressure related to the vapour pressure of the liquid to be conveyed, whichever is the greater. The pressure
related to the vapour pressure must be determined by the method shown in 4;1.1.6.1. Tests on sample
receptacles must be carried out to demonstrate the capability of the primary packaging to withstand the above
pressure.

d) Stoppers, corks or other such friction-type closures must be held securely, tightly and effectively in place by
positive means. The closure device must be so designed that it is extremely improbable that it can be
incorrectly or incompletely closed and must be such that it may be easily checked to determine that it is
completely closed.

e) Inner packagings must be tightly packed in strong outer packagings and must be so packed, secured or
cushioned so as to prevent any breakage, puncture or leakage of contents into the outer packaging(s) during
normal conditions of transport. Absorbent material must be provided for glass or earthenware inner
packaging(s) containing consumer commodities in Class 2 or 3 or liquids of Division 6.1, in sufficient quantity to
absorb the liquid contents of the largest of such inner packagings contained in the outer packaging. Absorbent
and cushioning material must not react dangerously with the contents of the inner packagings. Notwithstanding
the above, absorbent material may not be required if the inner packagings are so protected that breakage of
the inner packagings and leakage of their contents from the outer packaging will not occur during normal
conditions of transport.

f) Inner packagings containing liquids, excluding flammable liquids in inner packagings of 120 mL or less, must
be packed with their closures upward and the upright position of the package must be indicated by “Package
orientation” labels (Figure 5-26). These labels, or pre-printed package orientation labels meeting the same
specification as either Figure 5-26 or ISO Standard 780-1997, must be affixed to, or printed on, at least two
opposite vertical sides of the package with the arrows pointing in the correct direction.

g) Packagings (including closures) in direct contact with dangerous goods must be resistant to any chemical or
other action of such goods; the materials of the receptacles must not contain substances which may react
dangerously with the contents, form hazardous products or significantly weaken the receptacles.

h) Each completed package as prepared for shipment must not exceed a gross mass of 30 kg G.

i) Class 2 substances must be further limited to aerosol products containing non-toxic compressed or liquefied
gas(es) that are necessary to expel liquids, powders or pastes, packed in inner non-refillable non-metal
receptacles not exceeding 120 mL capacity each, or in inner non-refillable metal receptacles not exceeding
820 mL capacity each (except that flammable aerosols must not exceed 500 mL capacity each), subject in
either case to the following provisions:

1) the pressure in the aerosol must not exceed 1 500 kPa at 55°C and each receptacle must be capable of
withstanding, without bursting, a pressure of at least 1.5 times the equilibrium pressure of the contents
at 55°C;

2) if the pressure in the aerosol exceeds 970 kPa at 55°C but does not exceed 1 105 kPa at 55°C, an inner
IP.7, IP.7A or IP.7B metal receptacle must be used;
Reformatted packing instructions (applicable from 1 January 2011) 121

3) if the pressure in the aerosol exceeds 1 105 kPa at 55°C but does not exceed 1 245 kPa at 55°C, an
IP.7A or IP.7B metal receptacle must be used;

4) if the pressure in the aerosol exceeds 1 245 kPa at 55°C, an IP.7B metal receptacle must be used;

5) IP.7B metal receptacles having a minimum burst pressure of 1 800 kPa may be equipped with an inner
capsule charged with a non-flammable, non-toxic compressed gas to provide the propellant function. In this
case, the pressures indicated in 1), 2), 3) or 4) do not apply to the pressure within the capsule. The quantity
of gas contained in the capsule must be so limited such that the minimum burst pressure of the receptacle
would not be exceeded if the entire gas content of the capsule were released into an aerosol;

6) the liquid contents must not completely fill the closed receptacle at 55°C;

7) each aerosol exceeding 120 mL capacity must have been heated until the pressure in the aerosol is
equivalent to the equilibrium pressure of the contents at 55°C, without evidence of leakage, distortion or
other defect; and

8) the valves must be protected by a cap or other suitable means during transport.

j) For aerosols containing a biological or medical preparation which will be deteriorated by a heat test and
which are non-toxic and non-flammable, packed in inner non-refillable receptacles not exceeding 575 mL
capacity each, the following provisions are applicable:

1) the pressure in the aerosol must not exceed 970 kPa at 55°C;

2) the liquid contents must not completely fill the closed receptacle at 55°C;

3) one aerosol out of each lot of 500 or less must be heated until the pressure in the aerosol is equivalent
to the equilibrium pressure of the contents at 55°C, without evidence of leakage, distortion or other
defect; and

4) the valves must be protected by a cap or other suitable means during transport.

k) Except for aerosols, inner packagings must not exceed:

1) 500 mL for liquids; and

2) 500 g for solids.

l) Consumer commodities shipped according to these provisions may be shipped in a unit load device or other
type of pallet prepared by a single shipper provided they contain no other dangerous goods. The shipper
must provide the operator with written documentation stating the number of packages of consumer
commodities contained in each unit load device or other type of pallet.

m) The gross mass on the dangerous goods transport document must be shown as:

1) for one package, the actual gross mass of the package;

2) for more than one package, either the actual gross mass of each package or as the average mass of the
packages. (For example, if there are 10 packages and the total gross mass of them is 100 kg, the
dangerous goods transport document may show this as “average gross mass per package 10 kg”.)
