Lithium ion and sodium ion batteries contain flammable liquid electrolyte that may vent, ignite and produce sparks when subjected to high temperatures (> 150°C (302°F)), when damaged or abused (e.g., mechanical damage or electrical overcharging). May burn rapidly with flare-burning effect. May ignite other batteries in close proximity.

As an immediate precautionary measure, isolate spill or leak area for at least 25 meters (75 feet) in all directions. Keep unauthorized personnel away. Stay upwind, uphill and/or upstream. Ventilate closed spaces before entering. Wear positive pressure self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA).

147 POTENTIAL HAZARDS FIRE OR EXPLOSION • Lithium ion batteries contain flammable liquid electrolyte that may vent, ignite and produce sparks when subjected to high temperatures (> 150°C (302°F)), when damaged or abused (e.g., mechanical damage or electrical overcharging). • May burn rapidly with flare-burning effect.

Apr 4, 2024 · Guide 147 (lithium ion and sodium ion batteries) is significantly updated, as the original only addressed consumer items (cell phones, laptops, etc.). Now there are specific comments for EV fires, small battery fires and large battery fires.

This is an online version of the 2008 Emergency Response Guidebook (ERG) which is produced by the USDOT for first responders during the initial phase of a Dangerous goods/Hazardous Materials incident.
