BlueShape BX4 UN Certified Flight Case for Four V-Mount Lithium-Ion Batteries, 22 lbs Capacity

BlueShape offers an innovative solution for greater convenience and safety when travelling or shipping lithium-ion batteries greater than 100Wh by air. Current IATA regulations for passengers limit batteries to 2 between 100-160Wh and any reasonable number below 100Wh. Any larger batteries or a higher quantity must be shipped with special packaging and markings and under many circumstances cannot be shipped on passenger aircraft.

IATA Regulation, Packing Instructions 965 Section 1A recently amended, states that only cargo flight can accept packages containing Li-ion batteries approved under UN3480 designation. Nowadays this is the only possible way to ship batteries larger than 100Wh by air. The stringent shipping procedures impose the usage of special UN approved packaging.

BlueShape, in cooperation with a leading manufacturer of professional cases, has created a dedicated solution for the best-selling BlueShape larger models BV190HD, BV225, BV270HD, BV190HD SPLASH and BV270HD SPLASH, both GRANITE and GRANITE TWO series. These cases have been certified in accordance with UN regulations and have a unique omologation number from an international body, thus guaranteeing the user, more peace of mind for transporting batteries by air.

BX4 case has an impact-resistant outer case. The interior has high-density cushioning foam to eliminate and chance of interior contact. Each battery is segregated in individual compartments. When a BlueShape battery is shipped in this case with the provided contact covers in place, the chance of damage during flight is reduced to zero. The number of batteries allowed in each case is specifically calculated to comply with the UN3480 regulations.

The BlueShape unique omologation number and the UN3480 designation are printed on the cases, while the other mandatory markings are offered in the package as robust stickers that the user can apply and remove if needed: 5x CAO stickers (Cargo Aircraft Only), 5x Class 9 stickers, 5x Shipper/Consignee sticker, to be villed in every time the case is used to ship batteries.
