Standards & Compliance

The S5C Inflator Pump transport classification was conducted according to the following standards and regulations:

Primary Standards

  • UN Manual of Tests and Criteria, Part III, Sub-section 38.3: The battery type has been proven to meet all requirements of the UN38.3 testing protocol for lithium batteries
  • ADR (European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road): Specifically Special Provision 188 for lithium batteries contained in equipment

Special Provision 188 Requirements

Special Provision 188 applies to lithium batteries contained in equipment where the battery is designed to provide power to the equipment. The provision exempts such goods from dangerous goods classification when:

  • The lithium ion battery does not exceed 100 Wh per battery
  • Equipment is secured against movement and accidental activation
  • Packages are marked appropriately
  • Documentation requirements are met

The S5C product with 57.72Wh battery capacity falls well within the 100Wh threshold and meets all exemption criteria.

Quality Assurance

DGM China (CNAS L1B0078 accredited) conducted the identification and classification based on:

  • Physical sample examination
  • Technical documentation review
  • Quality management system verification
  • Packaging assessment

Frequently Asked Questions

What does ‘Not Restricted’ mean for shipping the S5C inflator pump?

‘Not Restricted’ means the S5C Inflator Pump is not subject to dangerous goods regulations for transport. It can be shipped via standard freight methods without special dangerous goods handling, packaging, or documentation requirements, as long as it meets the conditions of ADR Special Provision 188.

Why is the S5C battery exempt from dangerous goods classification?

The lithium ion battery in the S5C (57.72Wh) is contained within equipment and falls below the 100Wh threshold specified in ADR Special Provision 188. When batteries are installed in equipment and meet UN38.3 testing requirements, they qualify for exemption from dangerous goods classification.

How long is this transport classification valid?

The transport classification report is valid for one year from the issue date (until September 16, 2026). After expiration, a new identification and classification report must be obtained if transport classification documentation is required.

Can this report be used for international shipping?

Yes, this DGM China report based on UN38.3 and ADR standards is internationally recognized for transport classification purposes. It can be used for air, road, sea, and rail transport compliance, as these modes reference the same UN testing protocols and classification framework.
