3.2 SCiB Energy Storage System Safety
The following contains important instructions that should be followed during the installation, operation, and maintenance of
the SCiB Energy Storage System.
DANGER
Hazardous DC voltages are present in the system. This hazard will always be present
in a battery system including when it is o󰀪ine. The Toshiba SCiB Modules within the
SCiB ESS can present a risk of electrical shock and high short circuit current. Use
extreme caution when installing and maintaining the system.

posing of hazardous waste. Contact your state and/or local environmen-
tal agency for specics on disposing of hazardous waste in your area.
Steps shall be taken to prevent the short circuit of disposed batter-
ies by insulating the terminals (e.g. insulating tape) (Ref. Section 13,
MSDS SB-SDS-P5001E dated 4/08/2016)
For any questions regarding disposal please contact Toshiba Customer Support Center [phone].
3.8 Defective Battery Handling
For shipping (returning) Damaged / Defective / Recalled SCiB Lithium Batteries (Modules), the following requirements are
to be followed:
●Contact Toshiba International Corporation UPS Service for RMA#.
●SCiB Modules being returned must be packaged to meet shipping regulations outlined in UN 3480, 49 CFR
173.185 (f).
○This is for lithium batteries that have been damaged or identied by the manufacturer as being defective for
safety reasons and may be transported by highway, rail, or vessel.
●Place the SCiB module in non-metallic inner packaging that completely encloses the battery.
○Inner packaging is surrounded by cushioning material that is non-combustible, non-conductive, and absor-
bent. It should prevent:
■Short circuits.
■Movement within the package.
○e.g. non-conductive plastic bag, non-conductive bubble wrap, non-conductive packaging cushion paper
● Each SCiB Module properly inner packaged is individually placed in a UN specication package meeting Pack-
ing Group I performance level (metal, wooden, or solid plastic box) (This means if shipping multiple SCiB mod-
ules, each one has to be individually wrapped before being placed in an appropriate shipping container (wood,
or solid plastic box).
●Returned SCiB module must ship by highway, rail, or vessel. Air shipment is forbidden.
●Returned SCiB module must be marked with the Lithium Battery mark
●Returned SCiB module must also be marked with an indication the package contains “damaged / defective
lithium-ion / lithium-metal battery”
○Characters are to be at least 12 mm (0.47in.) high.
●Returned SCiB module must be marked with the Toshiba International Corporation UPS RMA#.
If possible the Returned SCiB module should be shipped at 30% SOC
