Abstract
A battery pack protects the internal battery pack components from the heat, e.g., heat generated during a sterilization process of an autoclave. The battery pack prevents the heat of the autoclave from damaging the battery cells and other electronic components within a battery pack housing. The battery pack may include a multi-layer thermal protection portion lining an inside surface of the walls of the battery pack housing with a combination of materials designed to limit the amount of heat to which the internal components of the battery will be exposed for the duration of a traditional autoclave sterilization cycle. Additionally, the battery pack may include a thermal protection casing around connection elements, such as wires and contacts, between a battery pack contact and the battery cells, to limit the heat rise from the heat of the autoclave in or on the connection elements of the battery pack.
