Abstract
A wet electrolytic capacitor that contains an anode and a fluid electrolyte that are positioned within a casing is provided. The capacitor also contains a sealing assembly that employs a bushing having opposing inwardly facing, tapered surfaces between which an orifice is defined. To help inhibit leakage from the orifice, a liquid sealing member is also employed that contains a protrusion having outwardly facing, tapered surfaces that are configured to mate with the inwardly facing surfaces of the bushing. At least one outwardly facing surface of the sealing member is tapered at an angle greater than a respective inwardly facing surface of the bushing.
