Hello,
I am not sure how helpful this is as the battery battery part number is not listed but the Technical Specifications list some information about batteries.

Because you included the part number rather than the model number I am not sure which version of the iPad Air you have. It may be considered vintage or might be obsolete.

iPad Air Cellular and iPad Air Cellular (TD LTE) are considered vintage but iPad Air Wi-Fi and iPad Air Wi-Fi + Cellular are considered obsolete.
I hope this helps.
