Section II - HAZARD IDENTIFICATION
Hazard This Ultralife battery product meets the definition of an
Classification article. Under the Globally Harmonized System of Classification
and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS), "Articles" as defined in the
Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR 1910.1200) of the
Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the United
States of America, or by similar definition, are outside the
scope of the system.
[Rev. 2 (2007) Part 1.3.2.1.1]
Hazard/Cauti Do not open or disassemble.
on Do not expose to fire or open flame.
Statements Do not mix with batteries of varying sizes, chemistries or
types.
Do not puncture, deform, incinerate or heat above 85oC (194 oF).
The materials contained in this product may only represent a hazard if the
integrity of the cell or battery is compromised; physically or electrically
abused.
SECTION III - COMPOSITION - INGREDIENTS/IDENTITY INFORMATION

Depending on product configuration, components used to assemble battery packs
(e.g. housings, electronic components and wiring) may contain additional
hazardous materials.
SECTION VI - ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Inhalation Avoid inhaling any vented gases.
Remove to fresh air immediately.
If breathing is difficult, seek emergency medical attention.
Ingestion Consult a physician or local poison control center immediately
Skin Contact Exposure to materials from a ruptured or otherwise damaged
cell or battery may cause skin irritation.
Flush immediately with water and wash affected area with soap
and water.
Eye Contact Exposure to materials from a ruptured or otherwise damaged
cell or battery may cause eye irritation.
Flush immediately with copious amounts of water for at least
15 minutes; consult a physician immediately.
SECTION V - FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Extinguishing Copious amounts of cold water or water-based foam may be
Media used to cool burning cells or batteries. Do not use warm or
hot water.
A carbon dioxide (CO2) extinguisher is also effective.
For fires involving exposed, raw lithium metal
(characterized by deep red flames), use only metal (Class
D) fire extinguishers.
Special Fire Use a positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus
Fighting (SCBA) if cells or batteries are involved in a fire.
Procedures Full fire fighting protective clothing is necessary.
During water application, caution is advised as burning
pieces of flammable particles may be ejected from the fire.
Unusual Fire and Cells or batteries that are damaged, opened or exposed to
Explosion Hazard excessive heat/fire may flame or leak potentially hazardous
organic vapors.
SECTION IV - FIRST AID MEASURES
In the event a cell or battery is crushed; releasing its contents, rubber
gloves must be used to handle all battery components.
Avoid inhalation of any vapors that may be emitted.
Damaged batteries that are not hot or burning should be placed in a sealed
plastic bag or container.
SECTION VII - HANDLING AND STORAGE
Precautions Batteries are not designed to be recharged. Charging a primary
for Safe cell or battery may result in electrolyte leakage and/or cause
Handling the cell or battery to flame.
Never disassemble a battery or bypass any safety device.
More than a momentary short circuit will generally reduce the
battery service life. Batteries with fuses will no longer be
functional after being shorted.
Extended short-circuiting creates high temperatures in the cell.
High temperatures can cause burns in skin or cause the cell to
flame.
Avoid reversing battery polarity within the battery assembly. To
do so may cause cell to flame or to leak.
Conditions Batteries should be separated from other materials and stored in
for Safe a non-combustible, well ventilated structure with sufficient
Storage and clearance between walls and battery stacks. Do not place
Incompatibil batteries near heating equipment, nor expose to direct sunlight
ity for long periods.
Do not store batteries above 85ºC (194ºF) or below 20ºC (-4ºF).
Store batteries in a cool (below 25°C (77ºF)), dry area that is
subject to little temperature change. Elevated temperatures can
result in reduced battery service life. Battery exposure to
temperatures in excess of 130°C (266ºF) will result in the
battery venting flammable liquid and gases.
Do not store batteries in a manner that allows terminals to short
circuit.
SECTION VIII: EXPOSURE CONTROLS / PERSONAL PROTECTION
Engineering Under conditions of normal use, batteries do not emit
Controls and hazardous or regulated substances.
Work Practices No engineering controls are required for handling batteries
that have not been damaged.
Personal Personal protective equipment for damaged batteries should
Protective include chemical resistant gloves and safety glasses.
Equipment In the event of a fire, SCBA should be worn along with
thermally protective outer garments.

SECTION XIV. TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION
Ultralife's lithium metal primary cells and batteries and lithium-ion cells
and batteries are classified and regulated as Class 9 dangerous goods (also
known as "hazardous materials" in the United States) by the
International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), International Air Transport
Association (IATA), International Maritime Organization (IMO) and many
government agencies such as the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). These
organizations and agencies publish regulations that contain detailed
packaging, marking, labeling, documentation, and training requirements that
must be followed when offering (shipping) Ultralife's cells and batteries for
transportation. However, small cells and batteries are not subject to certain
provisions of the regulations (e.g. Class 9 labeling and UN specification
packaging) if they meet specific requirements. The regulations are based on
the UN Recommendations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods Model Regulations
and the UN Manual of Tests and Criteria. These regulations also apply to
shipments of cells and batteries that are packed with or contained in
equipment. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in substantial
civil or criminal penalties.
The dangerous goods regulations require that each cell and battery design be
subject to tests contained in Section 38.3 of the UN Manual of Tests and
Criteria prior to being offered for transport.
Approved, production level cells and batteries manufactured and assembled by
Ultralife have been tested to Section 38.3 of the UN Manual of Tests and
Criteria and passed T1 through T8.
Batteries or battery packs constructed by other parties using Ultralife's
cells must be subjected to the tests contained in Section 38.3 of the UN
Manual of Tests and Criteria.
Important Note Regarding Prototype Cells and Batteries
