A capacitor and a method for assembling a capacitor. A capacitor is
assembled from a case, which contains an anode that is electrically
coupled to the case and defines wells or slots receiving a plurality of
cathode plates. A header is placed on the case. The header also supports
a glass seal that insulates the lead tube and cathode lead coming from
the cathode. Once assembled, the capacitor is filled with electrolyte. A
weld extends around the header to secure the header to the case. A bent
cathode configuration enables a plurality of cathode plates electrically
coupled together from a common cathode plate.
