SP 328
This entry applies to fuel cell cartridges including when contained in equipment or packed with equipment. Fuel cell cartridges installed in or integral to a fuel cell system are regarded as contained in equipment. Fuel cell cartridge means an article that stores fuel for discharge into the fuel cell through (a) valve(s) that control(s) the discharge of fuel into the fuel cell. Fuel cell cartridges, including when contained in equipment, shall be designed and constructed to prevent fuel leakage under normal conditions of carriage. Fuel cell cartridge design types using liquids as fuels shall pass an internal pressure test at a pressure of 100 kPa (gauge) without leakage. Except for fuel cell cartridges containing hydrogen in metal hydride which shall be in compliance with special provision 339, each fuel cell cartridge design type shall be shown to pass a 1.2 meter drop test onto an unyielding surface in the orientation most likely to result in failure of the containment system with no loss of contents. When lithium metal, lithium ion or sodium ion batteries are contained in the fuel cell system, the consignment shall be consigned under this entry and under the appropriate entries for UN No. 3091 LITHIUM METAL BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT, UN No. 3481 LITHIUM ION BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT or UN No. 3552 SODIUM ION BATTERIES CONTAINED IN EQUIPMENT.
SP 338
Each fuel cell cartridge carried under this entry and designed to contain a liquefied flammable gas shall: (a) Be capable of withstanding, without leakage or bursting, a pressure of at least two times the equilibrium pressure of the contents at 55 °C; (b) Not contain more than 200 ml liquefied flammable gas, the vapour pressure of which shall not exceed 1 000 kPa at 55 °C; and (c) Pass the hot water bath test prescribed in 6.2.6.3.1.
