What is the difference between a Class 6.2 Packaging System and a 650 Packaging System?

0

In the design requirements, there is no major difference between Class 6.2 and 650 packaging systems. The two main differences are: The test regime for 650 packaging is less stringent than for Class 6.2. The inner packagings of 650 systems must be tested separately with the same conditioning and test requirements as Class 6.2 design types but the packaging system “prepared as to be used in transport” needs only to undergo a Drop Test from 1.2 metres. 650 packaging systems need to be laboratory certified and meet the IATA specified design and package marking requirements and must be tested in accordance with the Regulations, but they do not need to bear UN approval markings and therefore do not require Competent Authority approval.
