Transportation
Passenger Aircraft:
This product contains small lithium metal batteries. The EPIRB can normally be taken on
board a passenger aircraft as a personal item in carry-on hand baggage. We always
recommend declaring the EPIRB to airline staff at check-in, in the same way you would for a
laptop, PC or video camera.
As air cargo:
This product contains small lithium metal batteries. Due to the overall low level of lithium
content the EPIRB is classed as
“not restricted” as air cargo under IATA packing instruction
– PI 970. Always check with the carrier concerned for any additional restrictions that could
apply.
